Education & EdTechwhere intake cycles compress the whole year
Two or three intake windows decide the year, and the decision involves a student and a parent who want different things. Nurture and forecasting matter more than reach.

What actually breaks in Education
Three failure patterns we see in almost every audit in this category. Each one has a fix we can point at.
Everything rides on two windows
Spend planned evenly across the year misses the weeks that decide enrolment, and nobody notices until the intake closes.
Two audiences, one message
Students and parents evaluate different things. A single nurture track underserves both.
Outcome proof buried
Placement rates, alumni outcomes and curriculum detail are the deciding evidence and are usually three clicks deep in a PDF.
The Education playbook
Forecast the intake, then nurture two audiences separately.
Intake forecast
Historic enquiry and enrolment curves modelled so budget lands in the weeks that convert.
Dual-track nurture
Separate student and parent journeys with the evidence each one actually asks for.
Outcome content
Placement data, alumni proof and curriculum depth surfaced as pages, not downloads.
Cohort readout
Which channels, angles and touchpoints produced enrolments, fed into the next forecast.

Client snapshot
Professional skills institute, three intakes a year
Budget was spread evenly across twelve months while three quarters of enrolments happened in six weeks. We modelled the intake curve, split nurture into student and parent tracks, and rebuilt outcome evidence as indexable pages instead of a brochure download.

Questions from Education teams
Both. The forecasting method is the same; the buying committee differs, and short-course providers get a faster feedback loop because cycles repeat more often.
