About the Episode

If we had a dollar for every time an enrollment marketer has complained to us about their school's website, Enrollify would be a Fortune 500 company 😏.

Here's the reality - you don't need just need a prettier website.  What you do need is a website built on a modern CMS (Content Management System) that empowers you to attract, engage, and delight users from their very first visit all the way through graduation (and beyond!).

On this week's episode, Zach chats with Luke Summerfield who is the Go-to-Market Lead for HubSpot's Website & CMS Hub. Luke is an inspiring thinker and a true disruptor in the website design and development space - he was also the world's youngest paintball store owner at the age of 15!  

Tune in for a passionate conversation on the future of website design and development and what enrollment marketers need to know about how to leverage their websites as a vehicle for lead-generation and student success.
