Why you should be using video to market your school.


There is no doubt that a massive amount of research goes into selecting the perfect school for your child. For nearly every parent, that search begins online, where they want a quick, easy and accessible way to have a look around the school, and find out what they stand for. Video will do just that.

For most schools, this is a missed opportunity that can easily addressed. A good video should break the ice between the parents and the school, giving them an inside look at the schools culture, it’s facilities, heritage and values, leaving them with a sense of comfort in knowing that there is so much more to this school than just classrooms and playgrounds.

Around the world video is becoming a staple tool for marketers who want to create a connection viewers. Which makes it perfect for schools who need to present a good first image to parents in order to remain top of mind and set themselves apart from other schools. The highly shareable nature of video also means that they can very easily be shared with friends, aunties and grannies, for second opinions, without the hassle of trying to get them to read the website.
