🎥 School marketing videos
We love creating video content for school marketing! Whether that’s a ‘Meet the Head’ video, a ‘Day in the Life’, or our most popular option, ‘8 mini videos for your website’. Video projects are typically in the £3995 arena which makes the last option very appealing for schools looking for value-for-money.
The reason these are so popular in 2024 is mostly for the value-for-money they provide. One day in your school will be a non-stop busy day. But it enables 8 short videos to be created afterwards that can be used for anything from explaining the Admissions process to Staff recruitment, parent testimonials, Sixth-form life, Sport, STEM or whatever you need.
Pricing is typically £3995 for all eight videos, unlimited edits, nothing extra for the music we add, for travel, accommodation or anything.

📸 School marketing photography
School marketing photography is where my business started back in 2012. I was a Marketing Manager myself, my children were young and given that I was spending my weekends taking photos of everything it didn’t take long before a school approached me to help them with their marketing photography.
Give me 10-15 minutes per location and I’ll provide the beautiful images (slightly longer for Sport in case they’re still getting changed).
The day will usually produce around 300 photos, all edited in Adobe Lightroom and delivered to you in full resolution with no watermarks or licence restrictions within a few days of the shoot.

🎤 Podcasts for school marketing
Increasing numbers of parents are listening to podcasts in 2024, in particular the younger generation who are also looking for a school to send their children. Since launching the business in 2021 we’ve recorded over 1,000 podcast episodes.
01. Start here
When schools are thinking of having a podcast to help with student recruitment there are usually so many questions. It’s easier than you might imagine though.
02. How to record?!
It’s a common question. We’ve all seen Steven Bartlett’s ‘Diary of a CEO’ podcast with multiple cameras. It really doesn’t need to be this complicated though.
03. So what do you actually need?
Here’s the great news, you really don’t need much. In fact just £70 is all you need for equipment. No studio required, no sound-proofing, just a small microphone.
- A conversation with the Head (what are they really like?)
- Three pupils on Year 7 life (was it as scary as they thought?)
- Two parents on the Admissions process (valuable for prospectives)
- Two alumni on how the school prepared them for life
- An enthusiastic member of staff on why they love working at the school

🎤 NEW: Testimonial videos - just £995
These are so much fun! I’m willing to bet you have so many people in your community who love to talk about school.
- Pupils who run into school every morning
- Parents who rave about your school at every opportunity (you know who I’m thinking of)
- Teachers who find school is their happy place
- Even your alumni who still talk about you
And in a post-Covid world your audience craves authentic goosebump-messages without the need for a Hollywood style production.
We use specialist technology to capture the recordings in the best possible quality, optimising their audio too without the need for a recording studio, and we coach the guests through how to present their message once it’s been identified.
It’s easy, it’s effective and it doesn’t break the marketing budget either.
