The British International School of Houston is a premium private K-12 located in one of Houston's suburbs. Because of its location away from the center of wealth, Houston's heavy traffic, and it's location in a suburb away from main roads or highways, BIS Houston was known as one of Houston's best kept secrets but had reached a plateau in its growth. In addition, as a premium private school, BIS Houston also has 2 or 3 competitors that are located closer to the center of wealth within Houston that have comparable tuition rates (averaging $24,000/year per child).
As BIS Houston's Marketing Manager I was in charge of developing and executing the Marketing Strategy, managing the advertiser relationships, and designing graphics to promote both in-school events for current families, and to promote the school within the Houston community.
However, my biggest accomplishment with BIS Houston was the planning, advertising and executing of the school's Open Houses which resulted in a source of additional lead generation for the school.
Part of my efforts revolved around finding viable advertising opportunities and tracking their performance with Google Analytics to ensure ROI. For the Open Houses I was also in charge with designing the landing page that collected the leads, tracking attendance, performance, and promoting the event through various means, including Facebook Advertising.

Given too much variance in ability of product marketing teams throughout the company, Wiley wanted to build and in-house agency of marketing specialists, who would partner with product marketers on all high revenue earning products (ranging from $250K annual to $50M+) to ensure successful outcomes.
I was brought in to build and lead this global team, and my challenge was to build out the proper processes, communication, measurement, and reporting, as well as get buy-in from global product teams who were not all thrilled with having some of their autonomy taken away.
Stock Fragrance sell professional fragrance oils to DIY candle makers or soap makers etc. This audience are a very engaged audience specifically on Facebook and Pinterest, so finding the audience was easy but convincing them to spend top dollar on the best quality fragrance oils, in bulk was harder. We spent alot of time on education, building brand awareness and website traffic, we then followed up with a lead gen campaign with a lead magnet that offered free smelling samples and this made all the difference. We had an audience that was primed to convert and offering a lead that was useful to them and convinced them to buy was a win for everyone.
