More of the right students.
Google Ads and Meta Ads to help education businesses reach prospective students and generate relevant enquiries.
For education businesses such as
- Course providers
- Coaching institutes
- Training centres
- Specialist programmes
What we do
Turn interest into opportunities.
Reach people who may be a good fit for your courses, and give your team enquiries to work with.
Reach relevant students
Advertising planned around who your programme is for.
Generate relevant enquiries
A clear way for interested people to ask questions.
Learn from outcomes
We review enquiry and admissions feedback where it is shared.
Readiness
Before spending more on ads, look at what happens after an enquiry.
Advertising can introduce your course to more people. But whether those enquiries become students depends on more than the campaign.
Course demand
Is there evidence that people want the programme you offer?
Course and fee clarity
Can prospective students quickly see what they will learn, who it is for and what it costs?
Admission capacity
Can you accommodate new students in the upcoming batch or enrolment period?
Counselling and follow-up
Can your team respond promptly and help people make an informed decision?
Enrolment economics
How much can you reasonably spend to acquire an enrolled student?
Trust and credibility
Can visitors find accurate course details, instructor information and genuine evidence of student experience?
If something needs improvement, we will tell you what to address alongside advertising, and why it matters.
Where each fits
Two platforms. Different strengths.
Not every education business needs both platforms. We assess your programme, audience, budget and enrolment process before recommending where to begin.
People discovering
Meta Ads
Introduce your programme to people who may be interested but are not searching for it yet. Useful for explaining course benefits and encouraging relevant prospective students to enquire.
Explore Meta AdsThe journey
A clearer journey from interest to enrolment.
Discover
Reach people whose interests or searches are relevant to your programme.
Consider
Help prospective students understand the course, fees, format and suitability.
Enquire
Give interested people a clear way to ask questions or request more information.
Counsel
Understand the student’s needs, explain the programme and help them decide.
Enrol
Record actual enrolments where information is available, and use the findings to improve advertising decisions.
An enquiry is not an enrolment. Someone who fills out a form may not be suitable, ready or able to join. We want to understand which advertising brings relevant interest, and where possible, which enquiries progress towards enrolment.
We handle
Paid campaign planning and management, audience, keyword and message testing, budget oversight, and review of available campaign and outcome data.
You handle
Course details, fees, admissions policies, counselling, enquiry follow-up, admission decisions and fulfilment.
Scoped separately unless your proposal includes it
Landing-page development, CRM implementation, technical tracking changes and additional creative production.
Experience
Experience with specialist online education.
AnyBodyCanBake
MappedSkills ran Google Ads for a Pune online baking school offering specialist eggless and healthy baking courses. The work connected relevant course searches with the school’s specialised programmes.
The published case does not establish numerical enrolment or commercial outcomes, so we do not claim them here.
See the education advertising workOur approach, not client findings
Questions we would ask about your courses
- Which courses have the strongest demand and commercial fit?
- What questions or objections arise before someone enrols?
- How quickly are enquiries followed up?
- Can we compare advertising enquiries with actual admissions outcomes?
Measurement
Measure more than the cost of an enquiry.
A low cost per lead can look attractive, even when few enquiries turn into students. We look beyond the advertising dashboard wherever reliable admissions feedback is available.
Campaign performance

Understand Our Pricing ApproachQuestions
A few questions before we talk
Can you guarantee student admissions?
No. Advertising can help generate interest and enquiries, but admissions also depend on course fit, fees, counselling, availability and the prospective student’s decision.
Which is better for my institute, Google Ads or Meta Ads?
Google Ads can reach people already searching for relevant courses. Meta Ads can help people discover programmes they may not yet be searching for. We recommend a channel based on your programme, audience and budget.
Can you help us get more relevant enquiries instead of just more leads?
We plan targeting and messaging around course fit and review available feedback on enquiry quality. We cannot promise that every enquiry will be qualified or become an enrolment.
Do you manage admission calls and counselling?
No. Your admissions team handles student conversations, counselling, follow-up and enrolment decisions unless a separate agreement expressly includes additional services.
Can you track which enquiries become students?
We can review admissions feedback and available records when you share them. New CRM integrations, tracking setup or technical changes are separately scoped unless included in your proposal.
Do you create course videos and advertising creatives?
Static creative requirements and allowances are defined in your proposal. Video, reels and additional production are scoped separately.
How much should we spend on advertising?
It depends on course economics, competition, available budget and enrolment goals. Platform ad spend is paid directly to Google or Meta, and our management fee is separate. We do not guarantee admissions or returns. Understand Our Pricing Approach
