Transforming Awareness into Full Enrolment: How The Goods Agency Helped Montessori Preschool Reach Capacity

The Montessori Preschool, a well-established center in Belmont on Auckland's North Shore, recently opened a new location in Mount Albert. Despite their strong reputation and unique educational approach, they struggled to raise awareness about the new center within the local community. They turned to The Goods Agency to help build awareness and drive enrollments.

Project Overview

The Challenge
Low awareness of the new Mount Albert location.
Limited community engagement.
Need for cost-effective marketing solutions.
Our Approach
  • Set Up Digital Presence: We set up a dedicated Facebook page and Google Business Profile for the Mount Albert location to enhance online visibility and engagement.
  • Referral Incentive Program: We designed and communicated a referral incentive program for existing parents, encouraging them to spread the word about the new centre.
  • Leveraged Local Community Pages: We posted about the new site on various local community pages. Posts were shared from the personal accounts of the owners to increase acceptance and engagement.
  • Listed on Montessori School Finder: We listed the new location on the Montessori School Finder to strengthen backlinks to the website, improving its Google search ranking.
  • Updated Website: We updated the Mount Albert section on the home page with new photos and relevant information. We also added a pixel to track site traffic and enable retargeting of ads to those who had visited our site before but not converted to a lead.
  • Google and Meta Advertising: We implemented targeted lead generation ads on Meta, achieving an average cost per lead of $23.70, significantly lower than the industry average. For Google Ads, we ran search and display campaigns with an average CPC of $2.50, well below the education sector average of $4.39.
