Renown was having great success with direct mailers since the 90's, but hadn't developed their online presence and paid media strategy. We had no data going in on which products to focus on, which channels to choose, or how to position ourselves in the market.

Beyond the overarching objectives, our main focus was with undergraduate and postgraduate student recruitment through ongoing campaigns, as well as advertising university courses, open days, postgraduate open evenings and Clearing.

Specific examples of objectives set by Leeds Beckett also included:

1) Supporting the university’s growth plans through targeted and effective campaigns

2) Growing the number of applications

3) Improving efficiencies and reducing costs in all paid channels

• Very competitive market
• Unique audience - Masters in the fields of science with experience in this area
• Paid courses (vs courses for free on the net)
• Dynamic content (according to market's request)
• Targeted audience which isn't aware of the value of these courses

Elise Care experienced extremely fast growth in only a few years, but their brand image, social media, and website didn't match their status. We had to revamp a lot of their marketing strategies to make sure everything was done to its full potential. We also had to start their socials from scratch as the accounts were not accessible.
