How unique is your school story?
Are you telling a story that stands out from competitor schools? That speaks directly to your dream families? That makes prospective students trust you with their success?
Imagine…
…if your dream students and families sought YOU out. If they saw your school as the answer to their questions; the solution to their challenges; the partner they could trust.
Imagine if they believed in your value; understood your school’s personality; knew what it felt like to be part of your community.
Now imagine if they did all of this before ever visiting your campus, or picking up the phone, or meeting with your admissions team.
WHEN YOU HAVE A STRONG SCHOOL STORY, IT’S IMAGINABLE. BECAUSE IT HAPPENS FOR SCHOOLS EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Meet Emily
Here at Cursive, we take story seriously. Story defines the way we work with our clients and the way we share our knowledge with our readers. And from our experience, we know that story is also what you need to reach your school marketing and admissions goals.
I’m Emily Cretella: strategic storyteller, content marketer and school marketer’s best business friend.
I’ve spent the last 20 years helping my clients create and share stories their audiences love, and this I know: a spectacular story is the spark that sets all marketing and communications up for success.
I WANT TO HEAR YOUR SCHOOL STORY. ARE YOU READY TO TELL IT?
