Telemarketing for colleges and universities is not a new thing, but it has seen a surge in recent years due to the pandemic.
Here are some steps you can take to promote college admissions.
It is important to create an early emotional connection with the applicants because once they have decided that they like a particular university or college, it will be difficult to reverse their thinking about it. Plus, bridging up a connection, adds value to the applicant, helps to build trust, and reinforces their decision-making process.
To impress those tech-savvy applicants, you have to listen carefully to what they are saying and proactively tackle any concerns they might have during the communication process. Applicants might miss out on opportunities because of the lack of information during the initial contact.
It is of vital importance for both the applicants and the university to stay in touch during the application process to follow up regarding any overlooked concerns during the initial contact and to provide updates.
Using outbound calling or a convenient communication and lead management tool to automate the whole connecting, following up, and providing feedback process benefits universities by saving time, money, manpower, and helps to retain and acquire new applicants easily.
Universities should be able to contact, gather and manage all of the information on thousands of applicants quickly yet efficiently so using the right software can help with reaching out, recording and tracking the results of the call, and even scheduling follow-up calls.
With generation z you have to cope with the instant communication style or else you might be left behind. And using software reduces the response time through automation. It assists with delegating inquiries to the right team member within the admission team to resolve queries in real-time.
