Irving Oil’s Post

It's been 10 years since I started university 🤢 I didn't study marketing at university and people often ask me if I regret choosing the course I did. Absolutely not. University degrees are great but are not and should not be life defining. Choosing to not go to university should not be life defining. For me, university was much more about being independent, having new experiences and getting out into the world. I learnt invaluable lessons about budgeting my money, getting enough sleep and being in the moment and making memories (something I wasn't very good at in high school). When I graduated uni, I didn't know what the next 5 years would look like. All in all, its not been too bad. Here's to the next 10 years. #personaldevelopment #education

"A successful HE marketer doesn’t just see themselves as responsible for marketing that generates income from students. Our job starts far earlier – in decision-making and strategy setting – where product, price and place are determined." This week on HE Professional, Sarah Bostock (Head of Strategic Marketing at Loughborough University) argues that the work of HE marketing teams needs to go beyond delivering shiny promotional campaigns in order to build reach and reputation, improve market share and diversity income streams: https://lnkd.in/dUh8VYym #highereducation #highereducationmarketing #marketing #admissions #studentrecruitment #university

GCSE results aren’t everything. My journey into marketing wasn’t exactly traditional. I came straight into the profession after a hitchhiking trip through Eastern Europe, working in bars, pubs, cutting meat behind a deli counter. I didn’t even study marketing at school or university - I actually studied politics. My GCSEs and A Levels were mediocre at best. So how did I end up here? A mix of luck, a knack for writing, and the right qualities for working in this industry? (I still don’t really know). If you’re getting your results today, remember: While grades can open doors, it’s character and drive that really shape your career and life path. #Marketing #ResultsDay

What really makes the college journey special? College means way more to students than just hitting the books or acing exams. Here's some reminders when positioning your school's programs: 📘 It's More than Just Classes: College isn't just about the academic grind for them. It’s a full-on adventure, preparing them for all the career twists and life turns ahead. It's about the whole experience, not just the syllabus. 🚀 Their Launchpad: Position your school as their personal launchpad. It’s where you prep not just for job number 1, but for a whole life of opportunities. It's about growing, learning, and finding a path. 💼 Building Their Story: College is where students start building their story. It's where they become a pro in their field, but also grow into a well-rounded, ready-for-anything person. 📣 The Marketing Mission: As marketers, it’s our job to share this awesome story. To show that college is about the big picture: skills, growth, and all the amazing life bits in between. It's easy to get caught up in the technicalities, but remembering to think about the college journey will help push boundaries in enrollment marketing!
