Reminder: Your Prospective Students Need Reminders

Workzone

I got a rude lesson in reminders last month. This past December I received my vehicle registration letter in the mail and put it in a conspicuous spot so I can take care of it later. Flash forward to March. I’m pulling out of a Starbucks, having just worked on some Accepted Student Day marketing for my private college. A local police officer was positioned nearby, and I gave him a friendly smile.
