Dear MDT, Am I Flushing Money Down the Drain by Neglecting My Existing Unconverted Inquiries?
Many marketers are haunted by this very question. I won’t beat around the bush – YES, you are!
Your database is full of opportunity: about 90% of prospects who once reached out to your institution never enrolled. Just think of it, on average, every single student who didn’t enroll comes at a hidden premium of around 1,400 dollars, that’s money spent on prospects who didn’t convert.
And with most teams stretched thin, the follow-up isn’t always what it should be. Let’s assume you’ve spent $150 per inquiry, that would mean you’re leaving a whopping potential of $135,000 just lingering for every 1,000 inquiries. That’s a fortune waiting to be reclaimed!
Let’s put it to work and turn this missed opportunity into a significant boost in enrollments.
The Strategy: Robust Automated Nurturing
Nurturing is the perfect strategy. Yes, nurturing, but not just any kind. A robust automated nurturing campaign that resurrects interest, builds trust, and creates a bustling marketplace of enthusiastic minds ready and eager for what your institution offers.
This type of campaign is not a replacement for the work admissions is already doing, but a support system to make sure every prospective student gets the engagement they need. One of the greatest values of automated student nurturing is that it can be more cost-effective compared to the costs of fresh demand generation.
