Challenge

Quality lead acquisition

 

OBS Business School - Grupo Planeta Formación y Universidades needed to build a quality lead generation channel to improve course enrollment conversions.

Because of its quality and simplicity, LinkedIn sponsored content and InMail campaigns were used for the Latin American market. These options allowed OBS to maximize the quality of the leads.

Through these two solutions, the target students for each program were identified and the most relevant audience for the school was defined. Communications (creative and messaging) were then conducted in accordance with the platform's best practices. 

"LinkedIn is a tool that allowed us to segment much more specifically and address the needs that the client had, as well as the education sector in general. The quality of the lead improved considerably with the help of our LinkedIn campaigns".
