INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS PRACTICE

Most growth problems are brand problems. We fix both.

We help your school become the one families hope to get into.

We’ve spent decades helping major brands like Apple, Energizer and PUMA create demand. We applied that same process to an independent school—with remarkable results.

Proof: St. Paul’s Episcopal School, Oakland
By changing only the school’s messaging—not its programs, admissions process or outreach—St. Paul’s achieved:

Jerry 30% increase in applications

Higher full-pay enrollment
Kindergarten oversubscribed
Sixth grade oversubscribed and expanded
 
“Your outside perspective, applying your major brand experience, gave us something far more powerful than we ever would have gotten from traditional admissions consultants.”
— Advancement Leadership, St. Paul’s Episcopal School

Families need a compelling reason to choose your school over every alternative.

We create it.
Why we’re different

Most firms serving independent schools come from education.

We come from the world of major brands.

We’ve helped companies compete in crowded markets, redefine categories and become the preferred choice in turnaround situations. Independent schools facing enrollment challenges often need exactly the same thing
