Supercharge Your Leads

We accomplish two simple but CRITICAL things:

1. Significantly increase the amount of time your leads spend on your website/landing pages (sessions duration)

  • Session duration → conversion + more time for you to call them

2. Increase engagement with leads Two-way engaging interactive content (input & feedback) with leads

  • Curiosity about ourselves – we're all trying to determine what ‘makes us tick’
  • Confirmation bias - personality assessments tend to confirm theories we already have about who we are and why we like the things we like
  • People love to get real-time feedback of a score, a grade or a personalized outcome based on the responses they give to questions
  • Personality Assessment (PA) helps visitors determine areas for improvement or how they stack up against their peers, letting them self-evaluate or self-learn. Based on visitor responses to questions, UCPA delivers personalized recommendations for improvements.

What is Generation Marketing's Personality Assessment?

Generation Marketing (GM) developed an interactive personality assessment (PA) software designed to improve lead conversion rates by enhancing lead engagement through self-reflection and charting of career paths.

We inject ourselves between you and your lead to supercharge the likelihood of conversions for you.

Who is Generation Marketing?

We represent a commitment to partnering with schools to provide a better understanding of the quality and depth of their leads no matter the marketing/media channel. With a deep understanding of our demographic and the challenges they often are faced with, our goal is to guide prospects to exceeding theirs. As a result, your admissions and counseling staff are better equiped with additional information to enhance students experience and outcomes.

Reduce bounce rate through additional call to actions (CTA)

On Google Analytics, the tracking hierarchy for metrics is as follows:

  • Users/Traffic
  • Bounce Rate
  • Conversion Rate
  • Session Duration

Analytics tools track thousands of pieces of data. With session duration in the top four metrics, it’s no wonder it needs a little attention now and then. Keep in mind, that the “session” is the full time that a user is on the website. This could include multiple page visits and product views, which are other key analytics that are being tracked by Google and others.

What is the Personality Assessment?

  • Four-pronged approach to our personality assessment:
    • Introductory
    • Reflective/Traits
    • Worries/Concerns
    • Follow up
  • Completely modular to fit the needs of every school
  • Every aspect of content can be edited, rearranged or simply modified
  • GM will train your staff/users - three levels of user permissions
  • Summary sent to lead and school (integration)
