Now that you have watched "Encouraging and Engaging Your Students" in the webinar library. Tell us what are some of your takeaways from it? Or do you have something to add to the topic?
[The video can be found in My Courses>EnrollMatch>Webinars and it is the very last webinar in the people skills section but I did copy the link below just in case you need help locating it!]

I found one of the key learning points of keeping the emails specific to the potential student's interest and short in length as a great reminder. I'm finding it best to keep the purpose of each email and the action I am requesting in mind as I communicate with potential students. Thanks for information on this topic!
Thanks for your response, Rebecca. Yes, I'll admit that I can sometimes send email with TOO many details that it can be overwhelming. Sometimes those short and sweet notes geared more towards the person are the ones that mean the most. It is definitely something that I feel like I have focused more on lately, to keep them to the point, and so far I've had great results. I hope you see some of the same!
Great video! Loved the tips on how to keep your students motivated and engaged. I will definitely use these going forward.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, Janelle! I think one thing that I really connected with is the idea, that we have to rid ourselves of the notion that if students are inquiring today then they must be ready today, because that isn't realistic. The focus on nurturing them until they are ready keeps benefit in the students hands instead of ours.
