Andy Kelley, president of Effective Student Marketing, recently announced plans to offer his marketing expertise in a series of regularly occurring articles for Career Education Review. The journal, published continuously since 1926, provides education leaders with in-depth information they can use to remain competitive in todays education arena. Kelley says he plans to offer school leaders advice on how they can use social media to fulfill their overall missions, promote their programs, and attract new students, while developing long-lasting relationships with current students, graduates and the community at large.

In the first article, he builds a strong foundation as to the merits of social media as a marketing and recruitment tool and explains why schools should use it to create online communities that reach current, past and future students.

Kelley says that social media can be an invaluable marketing tool, but only if it is used to its full potential. In the months to come, he says he intends to guide school leaders on how best to harness the power of social media so that their efforts resonate with students, graduates, influencers, prospects and the community at large.

According to Kelley, Social media relationships can develop into long-lasting and personally interactive real relationships that enhance a schools reputation, its brand and its good-standing as an institution.
