Four Ways A Website Can Help Your Recruiting
Finish the Story: Imagine you have an 18-year recruit in your offices on an official visit and you turn on a television that shows 20 random pictures and video clips over a 10 minute period. Would that be the best way to tell the story of your program and sell a recruit? There is a huge opportunity in college recruiting to bring focus to your recruiting pitch. Social media algorithms are geared towards short, non-linear bursts. It is very difficult, if not impossible, to tell the full story of your program in a methodically organized way on social media. Recruiting requires full and well-rounded stories like only a website and/or long form video can provide.
Bold visuals and focused storytelling: Instead of your recruits or their families seeing your information on a social feed with the other schools recruiting them, a visually appealing website provides a focused story on your brand and only your brand.
Be unique: While most focus on social media, carve your own unique path to stand out in the highly competitive recruiting landscape.
Analytics: Websites provide a deeper level of analytics and subsequent understanding of your target audience.
