Core Services

Each of my services is designed to complement the others, providing a seamless, integrated approach to student recruitment. From identifying your institution’s needs to implementing strategies that boost engagement, my process is holistic, data-driven, and continuously optimized for success.


  • Prospect Recruitment & Application Generation

    Outcome & Process: Attract a higher volume of qualified applicants by developing customized student search strategies that align with your institution’s mission, goals, tone, voice, and visual identity.  Along with conducting a detailed evaluation of your current recruitment efforts, I work with you to design personalized student search strategies that reflect your institution’s unique mission, goals, tone, voice, and visual identity.

  • Recruitment & Search Campaign Enhancement

    Outcome & Process: Elevate your recruitment campaigns by improving content, deliverability, student engagement, and overall effectiveness, ultimately leading to more authentic applications, better yield, and greater student enrollment.  I also work with you to simplify complex data and provide actionable insights for informed decision-making. By continuously monitoring and refining recruitment strategy, together we ensure that your institution stays on the right path and achieves ongoing improvement.

  • Student Recruitment Results Interpretation & Reporting Optimization

    Outcome & Process:  I’ve always said that data are meaningless without interpretation – looking at statistics, charts, and metrics that don’t clearly and concisely identify the areas of success and areas that need improvement is not an effective use of enrollment leadership time.  Our work together targets actionable plans, revamping of reporting where needed, as well as data synthesis and simplification.  Gain clear insights into your recruitment efforts, enabling your institution to make data-driven decisions that improve future campaigns and boost overall recruitment outcomes. 

  • Enrollment Service Partner Evaluation, Selection & Performance Optimization

    Outcome & Process: Maximize your institution’s return on investment by ensuring that you are working with the right service providers and getting the most value from your vendor relationships.  If your school works with large marketing vendors or is considering selecting one, I offer consulting to help you evaluate, select, and optimize these partnerships. I review your existing vendor relationships, assess their performance, and provide recommendations for negotiation or better service alignment.

Let’s discuss your unique challenges and create a solution tailored to your institution.

“I’ve had the great pleasure of knowing and working with Jonathan for well over a decade. He is very smart, ever curious, always professional, and an incredibly hard worker. More than that, he loves the work of problem-solving for clients.

He was committed to understanding our particular situation and finding solutions that were right for us. It was never cookie-cutter, never a chore, and never pro forma.

Jonathan is also deeply collaborative. He listens, he considers, and he engages in real dialogue, all in the service of getting useful results. He’s fun to work with, he asks great ideas and always has good suggestions. “
