About the Episode

About the Episode: In another Enrollify Podcast Network crossover, Day joins Dustin to reflect on her amazing inaugural season of Talking Tactics and discuss what is to come in the year ahead. She also talks about her work at Ologie and teases her upcoming book all about email.

The Genesis of a Marketing Maven

Dayana's story is a testament to the power of adaptability and passion. Born in Venezuela and having lived in six different countries, she brings a unique global perspective to her work.

Currently residing in Canada, Dayana and her family have embraced a car-free lifestyle in a city not designed for walking, showcasing her commitment to sustainability and community engagement.

Professionally, Dayana has found her calling in email marketing, a niche where she excels and innovates.

The Philosophy Behind Ologie

Ologie, where Dayana directs strategy, specializes in branding, marketing, digital, and web solutions for nonprofit institutions, with a strong focus on educational entities.

Dayana’s role involves diving deep into the essence of an institution, uncovering its unique identity through spreadsheets, data, and heartfelt conversations.

The goal? To craft brand strategies that resonate on a profound level, often moving stakeholders to tears with the power of well-articulated identity.

The Birth of Talking Tactics Podcast

The Talking Tactics podcast emerged from Dayana's desire to stay connected to the pulse of enrollment marketing strategies despite not being directly involved in campus operations.

The podcast serves as a platform for sharing innovative tactics in higher education marketing, with a particular focus on actionable strategies that can be implemented with limited resources.

Dayana's vision was to create a resource that empowers higher education professionals to execute effective strategies, regardless of their institution's size or budget.

The Journey Ahead

Looking to the future, Dayana is excited about the upcoming season of Talking Tactics, which promises to delve into AI-related tactics and other innovative approaches to enrollment marketing.

Her ultimate dream is to see listeners apply the tactics discussed on the podcast and share their success stories, fostering a community of collaborative growth and learning.
