Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) December 5, 2007 -- Many highly successful and well-regarded colleges and universities have embraced opt-in email marketing as a means of communication with prospective students, current students, parents and alumni.

The guide and accompanying online video summary may be downloaded at http://www.fathomseo.com/education-email/.
"Email marketing can be a powerful tool for increasing qualified inquiries, but it has to be done correctly to protect the reputation of the school or university," said Joe Soltis, author of the guide and Fathom SEO's Director of Permission-Based Marketing. "The most important part of building your marketing database is to ask for affirmative consent."
The step-by-step guide provides an easy-to-follow process that ensures successful communication and response rates. It also offers tips for using email marketing for non-enrollment purposes, including fundraising and career services assistance. Technical requirements of email marketing are also addressed.
"As the competition increases among colleges and universities, it's becoming more and more important to showcase the best aspects of attending your school, whether it's student life, quality of education, a great sports program or a lower admission price," Soltis said. "Email marketing gives higher education institutions a cost-effective way of targeting prospective students and parents - as well as current students and alumni - with more information about what they're interested in."
