Prologue
You might not be aware that I recently launched new marketing software designed for K12 schools called SchoolMarketingCRM.
I'm excited to share that a handful of schools have already signed up to use the software for next school year. This first cohort of schools will receive more of my personal attention to help them set up and use the software.
I envision this software to "sit in front of" your admission software and handle what I call the "pre-inquiry."
The software includes features such as landing pages, true automation using email and text messages, reputation management, calendar scheduling, and pipelines.
Are you interested in learning more and being part of this first cohort?
If yes, I encourage you to sign up for a demo with me using the link below.

With the rise of privacy tools from tech giants and changes in legislation, open rates are often misleading. The piece emphasizes reassessing how email engagement is measured, suggesting a shift towards direct engagement metrics over traditional open rates. Marketers are encouraged to explore alternative metrics such as email clicks or direct actions taken from emails.
