AI Marketing for Schools: Tips and Tricks to Get Started

With the rise of modern technology, educational institutions are now looking to use artificial intelligence in marketing. AI marketing strategies for schools have never been this advanced, as it aids in recruitment, communication, and growing the number of students enrolling in the program. Implementing AI infrastructure allows schools and educational institutions to improve customer service and eliminate monotonous work while also implementing empirical marketing decisions. Let’s discuss ways your school or educational institution can improve its marketing strategies through AI. 

 

What Is AI Marketing for Schools? 

Engaging with the parents of potential students nowadays requires the use of multiple touchpoints so you can stay top of mind when it comes time to enroll. AI tools such as chatbots come in handy as they enable parents to always have an brand ambassador available to attend to them, addressing common questions about the admissions process, course details, and information about the campus. These advanced AI tools can identify users’ intent and actively engage customers while collecting and building a database of their interests and concerns.

Advanced AI Systems can also be used to automatically send texts to a variety of potential students throughout the year to reach out to them while still being able to personalize your messages. 

 

Optimizing Digital Presence with AI Tools 

Through effective SEO and content marketing, AI tools can do wonders for a school’s online presence. They are capable of studying internet searches, enhancing website content, and even developing relevant topics for the institution to discuss on their various platforms. 

With the help of these tools, a school can start making relevant posts that appeal to the audience while ensuring its high search engine ranking, making your school easier to find via a Google search. 

 

Leveraging Predictive Analytics for Enrollment 

Predictive analytics can be a game changer for enrollment management in the near future. Enrolling new students every year takes manpower and a lot of time. However, by analyzing past data and future trends using AI, certain solutions can be quickly made, e.g., showing which kinds of prospective students are more likely to enroll at your school based on the advertising they received. 

This helps schools introduce their marketing campaigns to the parents of potential students more easily. AI tech can also help you determine what platforms your ideal audience is using and how those audience members prefer to communicate.

 

Creating Personalized Marketing Campaigns 

The incorporation of AI into your marketing enables schools to create customized marketing content for your ideal clients. This allows you to create unique and effective email marketing campaigns, social media campaigns, or even text campaigns that potential applicants will respond favorably to.  

The technology can adapt to the way audiences respond to its messaging, constantly improving itself to ensure your messaging stays effective. Coupled with a dedicated team of human AI specialists, your marketing has everything it needs to boost enrollments.

 

Automating Communication Workflows 

Whether email marketing or social media posting, automated AI systems can make everything easier to manage, including scheduling, creating content, and responding to questions. 

Such automations allow your marketing team to develop new strategies and build relationships with potential applicants.
