Miami Country Day School Web Redesign Case Study
-
A top private school in Miami wanted to grow online visibility and engagement
-
We redesigned over 60 pages and worked with over 5,000 images to capture the school’s unique culture and campus
-
The result: 32% decrease in bounce rate shortly after launch
The Challenge
Short Timeframe
The site needed to be ready in just three months, in time for students to go back to school and teachers and parents to find the information they needed to prepare for life back on campus.
Multiple Stakeholders
Their website was a company website with very few critical touchpoints in influencing customer’s decision – but it wasn’t created for this scope, and was ultimately unsuccessful in securing leads. In addition, the leads that Miami Country Day School did capture weren’t sent directly to the sales force.
Low Conversion Rates
Modula faced the challenge of conveying the value and versatility of their solutions effectively, due to the complexity of their product range.
Different Audiences
We had multiple audiences and we needed to accommodate the customer journey and the messaging for each of them: existing parents and students, faculty members, prospect parents and students, alumni and more.
THE SOLUTION
for prospective families and an engaging portal for parents with the latest news and events. Some of our deliverables included:
