Thank you so much for the webinar and all of the great information you shared. I was so impressed I shared the recording with the rest of our marketing committee.

Jennifer

I highly recommend that you work with Aubrey and listen to her advice! She started working with us as a volunteer and parent at our school about five years ago. She very quickly assessed where we were and came up with a plan for how to improve both our admissions and development programs. She was very flexible with understanding how busy our staff is and amended plans where necessary so that we could still move forward without overwhelming our small team.

Natasha

We definitely benefited from Aubrey's expertise in our Marketing, Admissions, and Development work Because of Aubrey's guidance, we have experienced the highest number of inquiries in 5 years. She helped us identify what sets us apart from our competition and guided us in our messaging as well as with inexpensive but very effective touch points with prospective families. She also helped us focus on retention through wonderful storytelling and the use of surveys to truly understand what our families' expectations were.
