What we do

Full-cycle digital marketing
for schools and education centres

From search ads that reach parents right now, to a steady flow of enrolment enquiries — we cover every channel that brings students.

01
📢
Google Ads (Search + DSA)

Search campaigns targeting parents who are already looking for a school, kindergarten or course. In our case study, Search and DSA — not Performance Max — delivered the qualified leads and cut CPL by 45%.

  • Separate campaigns per programme
  • Conversion tracking to trial-lesson bookings
  • Negative keywords and traffic quality control
02
📍
Google Business Profile

A fully set-up and managed profile: category, programmes, facility photos, parent reviews. This is the channel that gets your institution found “nearby” — for free.

  • Categories, programme descriptions, schedule and contacts
  • Photos of the facility, classrooms and staff
  • Review management and Q&A
03
🔍
SEO

Organic growth in search: programme pages (“private school in [city]”, “language courses for kids”), local SEO, and on-site optimisation for parent search queries.

  • Programme pages + local queries
  • Internal linking and site speed
  • Site synced with Google Business Profile
04
📱
Meta Ads (Instagram + Facebook)

Retargeting parents who showed interest but haven’t enquired yet. Education has a long decision cycle — Meta Ads reinforces Google Ads across multiple touchpoints.

  • Retargeting site visitors
  • Lead Ads for quick trial-lesson sign-ups
  • Student and parent testimonials as ad creative
05
📲
Social media management

Running Instagram and Facebook: everyday life at the institution, events, student achievements, parent testimonials. Builds trust before the first phone call.

  • Monthly content plan
  • Reels + Stories from school life
  • Comment and message replies
06
📈
Reporting and optimisation

Monthly reports with enquiry trends and CPL per programme and channel. Continuous, data-driven campaign optimisation — not guesswork.

  • Monthly enquiry-trend report
  • Cost per lead by programme
  • Recommendations for the next enrolment period
Dedicated focus

Google Business Profile for schools

Parents search for a school, kindergarten or course the same way clients search for a beauty salon — “near me”, checking photos, reviews and up-to-date schedules. In our beauty-salon case study, a fully optimised Google profile with zero ad spend grew profile views 6.6x in 2 months — the same principle applies to educational institutions.

  • Category and programme details — private school, kindergarten, language school, course or club, with age groups and tracks listed
  • Facility and classroom photos — parents choose visually, long before the first call or tour
  • Review management — replying to parent reviews builds trust and improves local search ranking
  • Posts and Q&A — enrolment announcements, open days, answers to common questions about fees and schedules

Real case study

English language school:
CPL down 45% in 2 months

The client was running Performance Max: plenty of leads, but low quality — parents submitted enquiries that never turned into trial-lesson bookings. We turned PMax off and focused the budget on Search and DSA campaigns with precise commercial-intent targeting.

Result over 2 months: the cost of a qualified lead (a trial-lesson booking) dropped from 2 000₴ to 1 100₴ (−45%), with the first enquiries arriving on day 5 after launch.

How we work

5 steps to a steady flow of enrolments

From the briefing to the first parent enquiries — usually 3–5 business days.

01
Briefing and audit

We review your Google profile, website, any existing ads, competitors and the institution’s programmes.

02
Launch Google Ads

We build the keyword list, set up Search and DSA campaigns, configure GA4 conversion tracking and launch the first campaigns.

03
Set up Google Business Profile

Categories, programmes, photos, posts, Q&A. The profile reinforces your ads and drives enquiries at no extra cost.

04
Meta Ads and SEO

Retargeting parents who haven’t converted yet, alongside ongoing organic search work.

05
Reporting and scaling

A monthly report on enquiry trends and CPL by programme. We scale the channels that perform.

Common problems

Why school marketing usually fails

These mistakes cost institutions enrolments every month. We know how to avoid them.

🎯
Relying on Performance Max

PMax generates plenty of leads, but few convert to trial-lesson bookings. For education, with its long decision cycle, quality matters more than volume.

🗂
All programmes in one campaign

A kindergarten and teen language courses have different audiences and decision cycles. Campaigns need to be segmented by programme.

📍
An empty Google profile

No categories, photos or reviews — the institution doesn’t show up for relevant “nearby” searches, and parents pick a competitor with a complete profile.

📊
No conversion tracking

Without GA4 and conversion import into Google Ads, it’s impossible to tell which campaigns actually bring students versus just form submissions.

🔁
No follow-up touchpoint

Parents rarely enquire on their first site visit. Without Meta Ads retargeting, an institution loses most of the interested audience.

📅
Ads not tied to enrolment periods

Campaigns run flat year-round, ignoring enrolment seasonality — wasting budget outside the active admissions window.

The biggest mistake in education marketing is relying on Performance Max and counting “leads” instead of trial-lesson bookings. In our case study, turning PMax off and focusing on Search and DSA cut the cost of a qualified lead by 45% in just one month. Parents take longer to decide than a beauty-salon or dental client, so running ads without tracking conversions through to an actual booking is a fast way to waste budget. We set up analytics and Google Business Profile first, then scale through Google Ads and Meta Ads.

FAQ

FAQ: school & education marketing

Answers to the most common questions about marketing schools, kindergartens and education courses

PMax reaches broad audiences (Display, YouTube, Gmail) with much lower intent than search. In our case study, PMax generated plenty of leads, but almost none converted to trial-lesson bookings. Turning PMax off and focusing on Search and DSA cut the cost of a qualified lead by 45%.
We start with analytics (GA4, tracking conversions through to trial-lesson bookings) and Google Business Profile — a free channel that gets the institution found “nearby”. Then we add Google Ads Search/DSA, with Meta Ads and SEO for scaling.
Launching Google Ads takes 3–5 business days. In our case study, the first parent enquiries arrived on day 5, and the meaningful CPL drop (−45%) built up over 2 months of optimisation.
Yes. The approach — programme segmentation, Google Business Profile, tracking conversions through to an actual booking — applies to private schools, kindergartens, language schools, tutoring centres and clubs, adapted with the right keywords and lead magnet for each institution.
A trial lesson lowers the barrier for parents who aren’t ready to pay yet but want to evaluate the teacher and format. It brings more qualified enquiries and gives a clear conversion event to optimise ads around — the trial booking itself, not just any form submission.
Parents search “nearby”, checking photos, schedules and reviews before ever calling. A fully set-up profile (category, programmes, photos, reviews, Q&A) is a free enquiry channel that runs alongside paid ads.
