Prospective and Current Student Networking Events Enjoy Ample Attendance
The Los Angeles Film School is using Trumpia’s SMS text solution to communicate with current students who have served as U.S. military service men and women. As a result of its SMS marketing campaigns to these groups, The Los Angeles Film School has been able to increase attendance at its monthly student networking get-togethers.
Founded in 1999, The Los Angeles Film School is committed to providing the best possible education to storytellers who are looking to start their careers in animation, film, video games and audio.
Trumpia is the leading solution provider for Multi-Channel Marketing and Messaging, offering mobile text, email, voice broadcast, IM and social media in a single, unified web-based platform.
The Los Angeles Film School purchases bulk SMS messages from Trumpia, allowing it to take advantage of a low per text message price. Using Trumpia’s bulk SMS text messaging feature, The Los Angeles Film School can send out 10,000 SMS text messages or reminders for under $300.00.
To promote their prospective and current student events, the school sent out SMS text messages in July and early August, inviting prospective students to meet the faculty and see first-hand what The Los Angeles Film School has to offer. The institution typically enjoys a 13 percent response rate from its campaigns.
The school also uses SMS text campaigns to communicate with its existing students who take courses towards their associate of science degrees at its Hollywood campus. Trumpia’s SMS text messaging allows The Los Angeles Film School to ensure that its military students receive alerts on the day of each event, significantly increasing the likelihood that they will attend.
“Trumpia’s SMS texting features allow us to maximize our chances of enjoying a great turnout at each of our events, giving our military service member students the experience of further getting to know our faculty while reinforcing the value of our program,” said Amber Chaib, director of military affairs for The Los Angeles Film School. “Mobile text marketing has truly been vital in helping us demonstrate our commitment to watching each and every one of our students succeed academically and professionally. Our students are always on the go and overwhelmed with information at times, so it would be difficult for us to reach them if we used email alone.”
Added Chaib, “Using Trumpia’s SMS text messaging service, we can also stay in touch with prospective students who have the desire to benefit from our program. It allows us to encourage these students who might otherwise let life get in the way of their hopes and dreams.”
“We are pleased that Trumpia’s SMS text messaging service is helping The Los Angeles Film School build a culture where communication and creativity go hand in hand,” said Ken Rhie, co-founder and CEO of Trumpia. “More and more savvy institutions like The Los Angeles Film School are learning that the traditional modes of communications no longer work. The future of marketing is cross-channel messages including mobile text – the most convenient and immediate way for an organization to reach its target audience.”
