How Ducere Achieved a 198.87% Increase in Lead Volume with the ‘Subject Spotlight’ Solution
Claudia Reiners Head of Strategy
Before the Subject Spotlight solution, Ducere was searching for a way to boost lead volumes and brand exposure during the peak of COVID-19.
From its implementation in May 2020, Ducere has seen an impressive uplift in valuable enquiries and the brand’s overall online presence.

Meet Ducere
Ducere Global Business School is an online education provider that offers internationally recognised qualifications in business and leadership.
By partnering with universities and leading organisations, Ducere strives to provide student-focused and industry-relevant qualifications that bridge the gap between “real industry leadership and rigorous academic guidance”.
Challenge
Like many educational institutes in the height of the pandemic, Ducere was looking to maintain consistent lead volumes despite dramatic shifts to student sentiment during these uncertain times.
Ducere needed a stronger online presence and share of voice to drive more student prospects to submit course enquiries and combat the risk of a COVID-induced low ROI. Ducere has been working with Candlefox for just over one year.
How Candlefox Helped
To help increase the brand’s share of voice and capture more leads, Candlefox worked with Ducere to implement the ‘Subject Spotlight’ solution at the beginning of May 2020.
This feature aims to give partners an extra boost by displaying their brand more prominently – above the fold – on a subject area of their choice. To enhance this exclusive placement, partners can also opt for a ‘Top Result’ listing to bolster brand share of voice and lead generation.
“Although multiple solutions were both considered and executed, none really seemed to hit the mark when it came down to increasing lead volumes. We knew we needed more exposure to get our name out there, so we were open to trialling new avenues such as the Subject Spotlight solution.”

As Ducere was able to trial the solution with no lock-in contract, there were no reservations to get started.
Through the application of this solution, Ducere maximised its share of voice within subject speciality areas: business and business administration.
