Traditional Marketing Technologies 6 These are tried and true ways of communicating your message to prospective donors and students. Basically, traditional marketing involves putting something into their hands that evokes the desired action. It might be direct mail in the form of a postcard, letter or newsletter. Sometimes, a three-dimensional marketing piece can be the smartest solution. An effective program includes both proactive and reactive strategies. Proactively, you can mine available data for donors and students. Reactively, you can reach out to a database created from school events and open houses. Traditional techniques also work well when combined with other components. An investment of $1 in direct marketing advertising expenditures is predicted to return, on average, $11.73 in incremental revenue across all industries in 2010.

Cross Channel Marketing Technologies 8 Cross channel marketing is like a one-two punch. In its most basic form, it marries traditional marketing with electronic marketing for multi-touch impact. The more sophisticated combos? They re up to your imagination. The possibilities are limitless. And we d be remiss if we didn t explore them. Take your website, for example. To us, posting a new website without devising a method to drive your prospects there is like throwing a party without inviting any guests. We suggest sending e-mail, as well as postcards, to announce what s new at your URL. The same strategy should be used to launch a new event promote the school and it s accomplishments the list goes on and on.
