How Do Bolt Tasks Help With Higher Education Marketing? 

A key benefit of using Bolt Tasks is that it helps with higher education marketing. Utilizing the ability to create assignments and priorities allows for a smoother workflow between colleagues for tasks that need completing. When your processes are streamlined, you can focus on building connections and increasing engagement with your students.

Save Time

With staff having a better understanding of what needs to be completed, they’ll be able to stay on task. With many in education roles wearing multiple hats, the ability to streamline tasks buys back time that you otherwise would have spent managing a project more closely.

By being able to quickly assign tasks and track progress in real-time, teams have more control over their workflows and can ensure that all tasks are completed as scheduled. 

Stay Focused 

Tasks help to free up time for your staff so they can focus on other important marketing and educational duties. You can also use Bolt Tasks as a way to track progress on projects, keeping your team one step ahead of the competition by keeping a closer eye on the progress of those projects. 

Because task management tools like Bolt Tasks allow multiple users to access the same platform from different devices, teams no longer need to be in the same room or location in order to collaborate effectively! 

Increase Student Engagement

Keeping focused and saving time is always a win - but the overall goal is to connect with students more thoughtfully, personally, and quickly. With a more streamlined approach to automation and personalization, the student experience will be more rewarding on both sides of the desk.   

Create a task after an event to call a student who just visited campus to increase the high-touch, personal feel. Or set a trigger for a follow-up task for those with outstanding application checklist items after multiple automated emails and texts.

Streamline Your Operations and Create a Smooth Process

All in all, Bolt Tasks is an invaluable tool for higher education offices looking to streamline operations and improve efficiency within their teams. By automating tedious tasks and simplifying communication between departments, this technology will help ensure that your office runs as smoothly as possible while keeping everyone up-to-date with the latest projects and enrollment and retention goals.
