"We take great pleasure in creating educational resources for the paper industry as a whole, and the different industries we serve. Following the success of Sappi's Standard series, we wanted to create something equally impactful for our customers," said Patti Groh, director of marketing communications, Sappi North America. "The higher education industry has a tough job—they have a limited amount of time and space to reach potential students, as well as their parents, in meaningful ways. Our research and expertise provides a roadmap to the future of cross-channel marketing, direct mai,l and more."

The Marketing of Higher Education provides valuable insight into the industry with statistics and data. For example, the U.S. has nearly 5,000 institutions of higher education1 and private four-year colleges spend an average of $2,232 on marketing per new student2. It then leverages the data to showcase various ways to distribute the right messages to the right people efficiently and effectively. Finally, the guide busts common myths surrounding the marketing space.
