"Boylen is a true partner in elevating our digital presence to international standards.”
This is the story of a partnership extending over 28 years. From logo redesign, web development, print and video editing, our challenge has been to stay one step ahead of the College's competition.
Over the years (decades, actually) the College has asked Boylen to undertake many different roles.
We have recently launched the stunning new College Prospectus and we are constantly designing new posters, brochures, ads, invitations etc as part of the global marketing strategy.
As digital has become more dominant, our team has continually redesigned and redeveloped the ICHM website to ensure it is attractive to young people across more than 40 overseas markets.
All work is judged by international standards and must align with the organisation's evolving mesaging - both visual and written.
Our current services have included:
As of August 2019, a new website was launched. It features a bold, contemporary design, with more authentic imagery and tone of voice.
As part of that strategy, we moved further away from the "institutional" feel that typifies many tertiary educators - and dialling up the sense of fun. Using movement and large imagery, the site exudes the vibrant ICHM experience and lifestyle.
Of course behind the scenes it's all work! For example:
ICHM required Boylen to be nimble as it manoeuvred to stay ahead of better-resourced global competitors. Needless to say, their new website delivers just that.
The process started with a comprehensive website audit, as well as competitor website analysis. The findings were matched against ICHM’s goals and the gaps became clear.
User journeys and key messaging were subsequently simplified to focus on:
Our strategy focused on a data-centric approach, rather than an visual-driven focus. Data collection methods such as heat mapping, user journey recording and conversion tracking allowed us to improve the usability and systematically increase the conversion rate of the site.
The design is consistent across all platforms and devices, and reflects current contemporary web design trends. The mobile user experience was improved by implementing swipe and touch gestures and a screen/resolution adjustment to make it more user friendly for mobile and tablet devices.
Testimonials and social proofing from past students are strategically placed to improve conversions.
For international students, an agent location module makes it easy to locate an agent in their region.
A Gold SEO package was implemented to ensure that ICHM’s impressive search engine rankings were maintained during the website transition period, and then improved upon.
“We had our highest enrolment figures on record. There are many reasons for this but one is undoubtedly the quality of our online marketing. This is continually evolving and Boylen is a true partner in elevating our digital presence to international standards, with a focus on attracting enrolments.”
