Advertisers
“I have worked with Educate for over 5 years and their range of products are core to our student recruitment marketing activity”
Donald McLeod - Head of Marketing Services, University of Hertfordshire
“Advertising on Bebo has revolutionised the way we advertise our courses and open events, it has improved traffic to our website and increased the numbers attending our open events. It’s also good to know that we’re engaging directly with the students in a medium they understand and are comfortable with, it’s also easy to measure and you can instantly see through the website statistics that the campaign is working. I have found working with Educate an absolute pleasure, the staff are friendly and helpful and will support you before, throughout and after your campaign."
Erica Dupuy - Website Co-ordinator, West Suffolk College
“We’ve used BEBO on a couple of occasions now and always had a fantastic response – in fact I think one of our adverts had the highest click through rate this year! BEBO is great for engaging with a younger audience and also offers us the opportunity to be really specific in terms of our target market. It’s also a more cost effective option than some other traditional types of media.”
Laura McCarvill - Marketing Officer, Forth Valley College
“I have been very impressed by the targetted advertising campaigns run for us by Educate at The Student Room. For our company, being able to focus on a specific student demographic is essential. From the two campaigns we have run we have had very good stats on clickthroughs and subsequent coversions. Thank you for your service.”
Douglas McDiarmid - Business Development Manager, Oxford Study Courses
“We are huge fans of The Student Room”
Alex Butler - Director of Transformational Strategy COI
“The Student Room has proven to be an incredibly powerful recruitment and branding channel for our University clients. Not only can we use it to reach a huge number of students, it is also one of the rare products that is applicable to UG, PG and subject specific campaigns. MJD really appreciate all the help and advice that the team at Educate provide and that it’s a real pleasure to work with such a friendly, professional team”
Emma Ward - Client Relationship Director, MJD Consultancy
“We used The Student Room as part of our Oct Open Day promotion campaign. It proved to be our most successful campaign of the year with nearly 40% more unique visitors than other web advertising”
Todd Pressman - Marjon
"TSR is a perfect match for reaching students that are considering going into Higher Education. The site looks great and has provided us with a fantastic channel through which we can reach our target audience using engaging media. I was impressed by their flexibility and the quality of service and I'm sure we'll be working closely with them again in the future"

They have been selling education related campaigns on the site to the UK's universities and colleges and have helped establish Bebo as a really important and effective channel through which institutions can recruit students. They understand social media and in September 2008 their work on the Meet The Freshers project helped bring a really exciting new channel to the education marketplace - they were able to get several of their university clients involved in the hugely successful project"
