Top 5 Digital Marketing Strategies for Educational Institutes

How Digitally Desi Helped a School in Hyderabad Elevate Their Social Media Presence:

In today’s digital-first world, educational institutes need more than just word-of-mouth to grow—they need a strong online presence that attracts students and engages parents. This is where Digitally Desi comes in. We recently partnered with a school in Hyderabad to help them overcome social media challenges, drive admissions, and build an engaged online community.

And guess what? The results speak for themselves!

Before partnering with us, this school struggled with minimal activity on their social media pages, a low follower count, and practically zero engagement. However, after working with Digitally Desi, the school saw incredible growth—both in social media presence and admissions. Ready to dive into how we did it? Let’s go!

The Challenge

The school faced major roadblocks with their social media, primarily due to inactivity and a lack of engaging content. With only 150 followers and almost no interaction from parents or students, the school was missing out on the benefits of a strong digital presence. Worse yet, their lack of visibility online was directly affecting admission inquiries.

That’s when Digitally Desi stepped in to revamp their digital marketing strategy. And the results? Let’s just say the school’s social media went from a ghost town to a bustling digital community!

The Digitally Desi Approach: Top 5 Strategies We Used:

1. Social Media Strategy with Organic Content

The first step was to create a targeted social media strategy tailored to the school’s audience. We focused on producing organic, value-driven content that would resonate with both parents and students. From student achievements to school events, we made sure every post had a purpose.

By consistently posting engaging content, the school’s social media followers grew from 150 to 1,518 in just 13 months—all through organic means. No paid ads, just genuine content that connected with the audience.

2. Interactive Content to Boost Engagement

To keep the community active, we integrated interactive content such as polls, quizzes, and Q&A sessions. Parents love to be involved, and students enjoy participating in fun activities online. This strategy worked like a charm, leading to a significant boost in engagement.

Parents and students started interacting with the school’s social media content on a daily basis, turning a once-dormant page into a lively space for conversation and community.

3. Content Showcasing School Life

What better way to show parents what your school is all about than through content? We shared highlights of school events, student projects, and behind-the-scenes looks into day-to-day activities. This gave parents a deeper connection to the school and helped foster trust.

These content pieces not only engaged the current audience but also piqued the interest of potential admissions, as they could now see the school’s active and supportive environment.

4. Leveraging Parent Testimonials

Word-of-mouth is powerful, especially when it comes from happy parents. We actively incorporated parent testimonials into the school’s social media content, showcasing real-life stories and experiences. These testimonials acted as organic endorsements for the school and helped establish credibility in the local community.

By featuring these testimonials regularly, we were able to build a stronger, trust-based connection with prospective families.

5. Community Building Through Regular Updates

We ensured that the school’s page stayed relevant by posting regular updates about upcoming events, extracurricular activities, and important announcements. Keeping parents in the loop with what’s happening at the school not only kept the community engaged but also positioned the school as transparent and approachable.

This consistent flow of communication fostered a strong online community where students and parents felt like they were an integral part of the school’s journey.

The Impact: What We Achieved for the School

– Follower Growth: In just 13 months, the school’s social media following skyrocketed from 150 to 1,518, all through organic content strategies that focused on building genuine connections with the audience.

– Increased Admissions: Thanks to our targeted digital marketing strategy, the school saw a notable rise in admission inquiries, with parents reaching out via social media to learn more about the school. The increase in online visibility directly contributed to this surge.

– Boosted Engagement: The school’s once-dormant social media page became a thriving digital community. Parents and students are now actively engaged in content, whether it’s through comments, shares, or participating in interactive activities. This stronger online presence has helped the school establish credibility and build trust among its community.
