THE CHALLENGES
  • Low awareness of what an LLM is
  • Low awareness of benefits in key target markets
  • Low application rates in key target markets
UofT wished to increase the number of applicants. Awareness of the program and its benefits were low in key prospect industries, leading to low application rates and low graduate quality.

HOW WE GOT THERE

Ideal candidates were older than existing prospecting and segmented their career-building activities to particular day, week and year parts. We implemented the following:

Revised Audience Targeting

Updated targeting to focus on professionals 35+ within a 1.5-hour drive of Toronto.

New Campaign Creative

Changed campaign creative to reflect a more clearly defined audience and campaign budget.

Redistribution of Budget

Adjusted the campaign budget, putting heavier spend on Saturdays, mornings and in December.

Additional Lead Sources

Introduce a lead-drip campaign with custom landing pages for particular program streams.
