“I love, love, love your podcasts! I am new to education, and they are a lifesaver. Thank you for your service to the profession! ”

Congrats On Your New Position!
Joanna Massee Rosenthal’s email got us thinking about marketing professionals who come to private schools from the business world.
We predicted that this would happen years ago due to the increased importance of marketing in private schools and the need for experienced professionals to fill new positions.
But Joanna’s email made us think about how you’re going to need to acclimate to school culture quickly so that you can hit the ground running with a firm grasp of the who, what, when, where, and why of your new work environment. You’ve probably taken this position not only because you’re a skilled marketer seeking a new challenge, but also because the idea of working with young people does your heart good.
We have a few suggestions to fast-track your learning curve and to help get your first private school experience off to a great start.
