Case Study—An Educational Industry Group Enjoyed Monopoly Digital Drive

Case Study—An Educational Industry Group Enjoyed Monopoly With Dreamworth Solutions’ Digital Drive

 

Two years back we collaborated with one educational group for their digital campaigning and we proudly say that we created a new trend of digital campaigning for the educational sector. Our client was a big educational group with autonomous nature and it was composed of 3 Engineering colleges with several disciplines, 2 MBA colleges, and 2 MCA academies. Also, they developed a research centre for Ph.D. and Postdoctoral students. This educational group was a reputed autonomous university in Pune City suburban area. Their capacity for each course was a minimum of 120. However, fierce competition in the education sector, numerous entries of new colleges every year impacted our client’s brand position and hence they could not fill 120 seats for engineering, MCA courses. Therefore, they planned to explore digital marketing capabilities for the educational group’s brand positioning and lead generation accordingly.

 

Dreamworth Solutions help restore the brand position of educational group clients with innovative digital methodologies and it became an incredible success story for both service providers and clients. We deployed fantastic marketing strategies that worked excellently and resulted in enhanced brand value of our client, improved online presence, and a better and promising outlook of our client in the education industry. For this, we conducted detailed research regarding the client’s educational services, campus, facilities, programmes, placement ratio, innovations, and research, etc. We also studied their online presence and proposition to get meaningful insights on their website, each engine performance of the website, PR status, and social media profiles. With our detailed research, we noticed that our client’s website was loaded with old stuff, also it was not performing up to the mark concerning search engine criteria. Their content strategy was hardly impressive and it could not bring more traffic. Educational group’s social media profiles were created but the rate of posting content, blogs, and images was very poor. In short, we noticed that this educational client’s digital performance and appearance required thoughtful online marketing efforts. With this, we kicked off our digital campaign for this esteemed client.

 

By considering various aspects, target audiences, and associates of the educational sector we created a custom digital campaign for our client that was centered on social media profiles and website improvement of our client. We also backed this campaign with superior blogging efforts.

Further during the admission process count of inquiries was increased up to daily 50-60 admission calls and out of that 45% of students preferred our client’s educational group.

The Problem Statement

 

Our client was reputed name in the educational industry, but with changing trends in the educational sector, they departed themselves from a state university and chose to be an autonomous educational group. With this major change, they faced many consequent problems and challenges such as competition with other autonomous educational bodies, struggle to prove their own curriculum is comprehensive, standard and competent, and usual problems faced by educational institutes such as facilities, campus, infrastructure, etc. We noticed that our client needs an all-inclusive digital campaign that will throw light on the strengths and positives of our client and thereby will able to drive insane traffic on its website, social media pages, and blogs.
