Events
If you're going to have a booth at an event, you need to have a strategy. There's a reason hire facepainters for their booths: it creates a logjam. Parents aren't sticking around to talk to a real estate agent, they're sticking around while their child has a great experience. So have a real conversation with them, make a connection.
Turn reviews into success stories
Take your testimonials page and turn it into great blog content. Longer, story-driven testimonials make great blog posts. Here's a great example.
Experience-Related Gifts
We covered the Alex Wang Strategy in The Conversion Code - if you see someone post about their vacation on Facebook, send them a gift at their hotel. A bottle of champagne, a massage from the hotel spa, something that shows you pay attention and will make their experience richer.
