For a few years now, it's been operating like the wild west or better yet, Haight Ashbury, where everybody is doing their own thing without a thought for consequences. In focusing on what social media should accomplish, she undoes the myth that because all of this stuff is free we don't need to worry about results. By profiling insitutions that have focused on results, she's done us all a big favor. I think that Advergirl brings an understanding of ROI to social media that is somewhat unique to this new arena.

Maybe something about the communications barriers that are broken down with social media, versus more traditional e-mail/snail mail correspondence between recruiters and students?

]]> Comment on Avoid attrition with summertime chats by Steven Bogue http://recruitingmillennials.wordpress.com/2009/06/22/avoid-attrition-with-summertime-chats/#comment-285 Steven Bogue Thu, 16 Jul 2009 18:05:38 +0000 http://recruitingmillennials.wordpress.com/?p=600#comment-285 There is one solution to address the Stealth Applicant Issue....Retargeting What is Retargeting? Simple Definition: Re-connecting a publisher with past website visitors so there is an increased likelihood of a completed desired action or transaction. Inherently, visitors to a website have expressed an interest in the institution since they went through the effort to find and visit it. With the placement of a simple code on select pages of the website, retargeting enables a school to identify visitors and repeatedly expose them to messaging that’s relevant to the previously expressed interest on the school site. How retargeting works When a visitor comes to the website, a simple piece of code is placed in their browser which identifies them and records which site pages they have viewed.  Within minutes of these visitors going to any other website, banner ads can be served instantly displaying the schools message inviting them back to their site.  This works extremely well when your message is relevant to what they were interested in, especially when they were considering an action-step (like downloading an application). The concept is simple, requires little effort from the admissions staff, and is amazingly efficient (affordable). There is one solution to address the Stealth Applicant Issue….Retargeting
