RECRUITMENT

Change Your Recruiting Game At High School Visits

Put your organization in the leader spot in the prospective music student’s mind.

​

Recruiting at high school visits comes with several challenges:

  1. The high school teacher wants the visit to be educational for the students - completely understandable - so there is not an opportunity to give a detailed pitch about joining.
  2. Passing out paper forms to capture the students' information is clunky - you can't read the student's handwriting, it takes hours to type into a spreadsheet, and it's a boring and lame first impression.
  3. If you hand a student a business card or tell them to visit your department's website, you know they are probably never going to do anything.

This video below gives one example of how to change the way you recruit at high school visits to create an unbeatable first impression with prospective music students.

To see how something like this might be molded to your unique organization, please book a product walkthrough.

I will sing Bandwindow's praises as the best recruiting tool for any bands. I just won't tell anyone within 300 miles of us because I want it to be our hidden advantage!
Andrew Hunter
University of Texas, El Paso
Our instrumental area is up close to 50 students over last year.
Adam Dalton
Marshall University School of Music
Musicwindow saved our audition day this year. The submission process worked seamlessly and allowed our faculty easy, straightforward access to auditions while working from home.
Dan Sheridan
Winona State University Music Department
We’ve signed up 39 freshmen in the last month! That is the largest freshman class we’ve ever had at HPU.
Danny Frye
High Point University
We are able to reach all of our constituencies, whether it's prospective members, whether it's alums, fans, or parents.
Andrea Brown
University of Maryland
Musicwindow is an intuitive way to reach students with dynamic messages. There is less time spent on each individual so we can focus on creating a larger reach. My faculty have more time back... that's huge.
Pete Folliard
Augustana University School of Music
Students are responding to our texts. We previously didn't feel like we had an open line of communication because when you send an email, it just sits there. The way our music faculty are texting back and forth with prospective music students is a game changer for a music school recruiting operation.
