“OLD SCHOOL.”

Texting is pervasive and convenient across campuses everywhere.
It's less intrusive for students than a phone call. Recruiters get faster responses than sending an email.

Text or call?
Let’s face it, students would rather text you
than call you and they certainly don’t want to pick up their phone.

GROUP MESSAGING

Managing your admissions department is hard. Throughout the recruiting year, the wave of communications from prospective students can be overwhelming. Conversations get lost. Students wait too long for responses, while other universities follow up on time.

With group messaging, you can manage all of your department's communications more easily and deliver faster response times to student inquiries. Department leaders can assign any admissions counselor or university recruiter messages and direct communication to the right person. You never have to worry if messages sent to students on time.

Increase efficiency from employees and more interest from students. They simply receive and return texts to you, so your team can guide them through the recruiting process.

IN THE WORLD OF RECRUITING,

TIME TRULY IS MONEY

Competition is fierce and you must communicate quickly.

5 WAYS WE TURN CONVERSATIONS INTO COMMITMENTS:

Capture more leads

With our lead generation tool, new prospective students or parents can quickly and easily contact your department. Avoid the pain of voicemail and phone tag and the lag time of email by instantly communicating with prospective students.

Captivated is the perfect chat replacement because it allows your team to re-connect with students on their favorite device, their phone.

Super charge your existing landline phone numbers.

Now, all of your print ads and website advertisements can say call or text. Captivated can text enable all of your existing landlines so prospects and clients can choose to call or text. When a student says,
“I can’t talk right now,” your recruiter can stay engaged right from their desktop or mobile device and keep the conversation going via text.

Convenience & clarity

Our easy-to-use personalized templates with variable data merge fields will make it simple to connect quickly and professionally, yet with a true, one-on-one, personalized feel. Your staff will deliver just the right message with templates controlled by marketing and senior staff.

Coaching & oversight

Let’s face it, every admission’s counselor needs help once in a while. Captivated allows anyone on your staff to quickly share a note and ask for help from a co-worker or a supervisor. In fact, an entire group or team can follow important conversations until the engagement is complete.

The bottom line

Throughout the relationship, Captivated empowers your entire staff to communicate with prospective candidates and current students the same way they communicate with their friends. Moving a candidate along in the process is more comfortable, building real relationships and driving loyalty. You can even use Captivated to move paperwork and get signatures.
