FPP’s Webinars is one of our fastest-growing services with slots often sold-out months in advance. Offering a cost-effective and convenient solution to meet pre-screened students via
an online presentation at a time and date that works for you, it’s a smart choice.
ABOUTColorado State University - Pueblo has been using many of FPP
EDU Media’s services, both in-person and online, in a variety of
student markets for several years. The combination of these
services has helped in growing and diversifying CSU – Pueblo’s
international student numbers.
OBJECTIVECSU - Pueblo recently launched a new scholarship called the "UK
Scholar”, with the purpose of attracting more students from the
UK. The main objective of this webinar was to attract quality UK
students interested in this opportunity, and present them with
more details including the application process and the
qualification requirements of this scholarship.
TARGET MARKETUK
BEFORE THE WEBINARWe agreed the date and time with the university’s representative.
The intended audience was students looking to study an
undergrad program in the US. Thus, we held the webinar in the
early evening UK-time, to ensure that students would be home
from school, and could watch the webinar with their parents.
We held a test run with the presenters to ensure smooth
communication, network connectivity and reliability, and
familiarity with the platform and its functions.

DURING THE WEBINAROn the day of the event, the presenter connected from the US
and began a live 40-minute presentation. An overview of the
scholarship program, and general information about studying
at CSU – Pueblo was provided.
After the presentation, students engaged with the presenter
in a Q&A session, which lasted 20 minutes.
The type of questions, and the length of the Q&A suggested
that the students were high-quality, and very well-prepared
for the webinar.
Who are these 25,000 students? FPP holds over 5FPP
through its UK brand – The Student World - holds
Student Fairs in the UK’s largest student markets of
London and Manchester annually. We also organize
four High School Road Shows throughout the year,
which take 80 overseas universities to 60 leading UK
high schools each year. Since all attending students
attending an FPP Fair must register online in advance,
our student database invited to participate in the
Webinars is immense, unmatched and focused on
studying-abroad.
Sending a mass email to FPP’s database of students
in the UK – 25,000 opt-in students.
Social media with posts on Edu.FindMe.com’s and The
Student World’s Facebook pages (with 1.8 million likes
and counting), Instagram and Twitter.
Repeated email blasts to the UK database, and
boosted social media posts in the weeks preceding the
webinar.
Sending an email to The Student World’s database of 950 UK career advisers, asking them to
forward details of the webinar to interested students.
Our UK-based School Liaison Manager informed
career advisers of leading UK high schools that would
have students interested, of the webinar.
All promotion pushed students to CSU – Pueblo’s webinar summary and registration page.
Registered students were sent subsequent emails to remind them of the webinar and log-in procedures.
I have been doing webinars with FPP for the last 2 years, usually for the Latin American and Indian markets, which have proved very successful. During Spring 2017, we decided to try a new market, the UK, because we were looking to promote a scholarship designed for that particular market. The quality of students was amazing. We received three applications through the webinar immediately, and two of the applicants have already confirmed to come this Fall. I would definitely recommend doing webinars with FPP if you are looking for highly-qualified students, as well as great service from the FPP team!

We don’t impose a time limit on Q&A, so you can chat
freely with students, until you’re sure all their questions
are answered.
FPP staff filter the questions, removing repeated or
unnecessary questions, and push to the presenters to
answer in real-time.
AFTER THE WEBINARAll attending students became a ‘lead’ for CSU - Pueblo. This means the
profiles and contact details of all students were visible in their FPP Client
Area.
The students could be contacted through FPP’s platform directly, or
downloaded by CSU - Pueblo and imported into their own CRM or
preferred messaging system. These students remain in their Client Area
indefinitely.
The webinar was recorded and posted the following day in the Webinar
section of EduFindMe.com where it will remain, to be searched for and
viewed by students at any time.
We contacted students that registered but did not attend the webinar,
inviting them to watch the recording.
The number of the students who attended the webinar was not high in
comparison with other FPP webinars. It must be remembered, however,
that the UK is very much a developing market, which is why The Student
World exists – to spread the word of overseas study to UK students.
It turned out that the quality of students; the attendance rate, and
conversion rate were the highest ever recorded.
Attending students are kept in your FPP
Client Area to be messaged directly,
and/or downloaded and imported into
your own CRM.
Students that watch the recording at any
time in the future are added to your Client
Area, with an emailed notification sent to
you, enabling quick follow-up of interested
and engaged students.
