Lead Generation for Student Search
Carnegie’s Student Search lead generation is distinctive in two ways. For one, we adamantly believe that a data-driven sourcing strategy that focuses on fit is the most successful way to recruit and retain students. And two, this strategy should always be turned on, in order to diversify. It’s student centric and market mindful, and, yes, it’s a different approach than you’ve seen in the past.
Focus on Fit
Our Enrollment Strategy team will deliver a Name Purchasing Model based on your enrollment data and market intelligence analysis to ensure that your selections are precise and have the highest likelihood of conversion. Our philosophy is to identify and cultivate the best students for your institution, moving away from the traditional high-volume, low-conversion Student Search of the past and toward a more student-centric model that drives real connection and optimizes your Student Search budget.

Diversified Sources
We go beyond the traditional lead sources to meet students where they are. A pillar of Carnegie’s Student Search is our digital execution, including digital advertising and web personalization for lead generation. Digital provides a practical layer to any sophomore, junior or senior Student Search and can be used in further segmentation for new prospects and those already in your pipeline. This is a great always-on option, timely driver and diversified lead source. Paired with a thoughtful web personalization strategy you will account for an array of ports of entry and milestone moments in a student’s journey.

Integrated Management
Wherever they come from, your leads are seamlessly integrated into your CRM with a Carnegie-supported Slate Student Search. This means you own and have access to all student records regardless of their performance within your campaign, empowering you to maximize your reporting and non-responder campaigns.
Record Ownership
We’ll say that one more time, with a Carnegie Student Search you own all the data and always have access to your Student Search records. Leads are immediately, if not automatically, integrated into your Slate CRM, ensuring that for every penny spent you have a student record to show for it. Practically, this means you can communicate to your entire database, leveraging non-responder and late responder strategies, as well as benefiting from full database reporting.
Right fit, diversified, and always on.
