We really do not have any outreach community programs in place. We do have employers that come in and present to our classes. We used to have job fairs annually and I would like to implement them again int he future. We stopped due to low participation.

Marketing

We really do little to no radio/tv advertising. We mainly rely on the internet and our referrals from past grads. We do have an advisory board that was developed about 2 years ago. The board has been helpful in reviewing our curriculum and giving outside advice to possible modifications to make the material even more applicable to the industry.

Publicity

We currently rely heavily on alumni referrals. We also do track our demographics of our leads that visit the school. We do have a bi-weely newsletter that is sent out to all newly registered students, current students and staff. We really do not have much in the way of a press release, which I would like to develop.

Ways to motivate your staff when raises are not an option

We have been on a pay increase freeze for a little over 2 years now. Does anyone have any suggestions of how to motivate employees, when money is not an option? Thank you!
