FPP’s Webinars is one of our fastest-growing services with slots often sold-out months in advance. Offering a cost-effective and convenient solution to meet pre-screened students via

BEFORE THE WEBINARWe held a test run with the presenters to ensure

smooth communication, network connectivity and

reliability, and familiarity with the platform and its

functions.

DURING THE WEBINAROn the day of the event, the presenters connected from

Sweden and began a live 30-minute presentation. Useful and

interactive information about applying and studying at

universities in Sweden was provided. After the presentation,

students engaged with presenters in a Q&A session.

A helpful addition to this webinar was a student from the

Dominican Republic, who had studied in Sweden. She

delivered her own presentation, speaking in Spanish, about

her experiences at a Swedish university. This resonated very

well with students.

Due to the sheer volume of students attending and the

number of questions flooding in, Q&A was extended until all

questions had been addressed by presenters.

Presenters answered questions in both English and Spanish,

depending upon whether the Study in Sweden staff member

(in English) or the former student (in Spanish) fielded the

question. A bilingual Q&A created a positive dynamic and

kept students engaged and on their toes.

Huh!! 940,000 Latin American students?! That can’t be right. It is. FPP holds over 50 Student Fairs in Latin

America annually (including those for the Canadian,

Australian and New Zealand Governments), attended

by over 130,000 students. Since all attending students

must register online in advance, our student database

invited to participate in the Webinars is immense,

unmatched and focused on studying-abroad.

Sending a mass email to FPP’s database of students

in Latin America – 940,000 opt-in students

Social media with posts on the Edu.FindMe.com’s

Facebook page (with 1.8 million likes and counting),

Instagram and Twitter.

Repeated email blasts to the Latin American

database, and boosted social media posts in the weeks

preceding the webinar.

All promotion pushed students to Study in

Sweden’s webinar summary and registration page.

Registered students were sent subsequent emails

to remind them of the webinar and log-in procedures.

AFTER THE WEBINARAll attending students became a ‘lead’ for Study in Sweden. This means

the profiles and contact details of all students were visible in their FPP

Client Area. The students could be contacted through FPP’s platform

directly, or downloaded by Study in Sweden and imported into their own

CRM or preferred messaging system. These students remain in their Client

Area indefinitely.

The webinar was recorded and posted the following day in the Webinar

section of EduFindMe.com where it will remain, to be searched for and

viewed by students at any time. We contacted students that registered

but did not attend the webinar, inviting them to watch the recording. This

generated many more ‘leads’ in a short period of time.

Attending students are kept in your FPP

Client Area to be messaged directly, and/or

downloaded and imported into your own

CRM.

Students that watch the recording at any

time in the future are added to your Client

Area, with an emailed notification sent to

you, enabling quick follow-up of interested

and engaged students.

We have been using FPP’s

webinars to inform students what

it is like to study in Sweden. The

collaboration with the FPP team

is great and they ensure that we

always have a high number of

sign-ups for our webinars.

Moreover, the students that

joined our webinars are quality

students, ensuring a high

conversion rate. This means,

many of the students that joined

one of our FPP webinars also

ended up being admitted to

study in Sweden.”
