About the Episode:
In this episode, Allison and Dallin Palmer, Co-Founder of HALDA, discuss the shift in enrollment marketing from an institution-centric approach to a relationship-first mindset. Dallin unpacks the SHIFTS Framework, a powerful roadmap for building authentic connections with prospective students. The conversation covers key pillars of the framework, including how to listen effectively (Survey), provide personalized value (Helpful and Individualization), and leverage technology to create a more human, responsive experience (Face, Triggers, and Speed). Learn how to move past outdated tactics and focus on building genuine trust to drive enrollment success.
