FPP Edu-Media is organizing the final recruitment event of 2008 in Brazil, where more than 10,000 top-quality visitors are expected.
Brazil Road Show aims at quality, and not quantity, of visitors, because whole time during the show should be dedicated only to those students that can and will purchase a study program abroad, not just ”brochure grabbers”. In Latin America screening is VERY important.
Currently Brazil is experiencing a VERY strong economic situation. Today 1 USD equals 1.59 Real. The Brazilian currency has not been this strong since January 1999.
Brazil is the number one market in Latin America for the main international study destinations, with over 65,000 students taking language, high school, undergraduate and graduate programs abroad. The number is growing exponentially, as purchasing power and interest reach new levels.
FPP Edu-Media limits space for local agents to 25%. The upcoming events sold 95% of the space reserved for local agents immediately following last March’s EXPOs. This is a very important sign that their events provide excellent results and the visitors are of good quality. Otherwise, these good and experienced local agents would not be so eager to book the events so soon after the previous ones.
They have so many attractive offers for every attendee.
- Professional and organized events, with full support from a very helpful, local staff and who know the market inside and out.
-Events allow the participation of 35 to 50 Institutions only. The limit varies with the cities. This means less competition and more quality students.
- Do more business in less travel time! FPP Edu-Media will give you their database of local agents (screened and revised EVERY semester) so you can make appointments and meet them in the mornings prior to the events. An Agent Meeting Place is set-up prior to the student fairs in all six event location cities.
- Leave the hassle to FPP Edu-Media! You have the option to book your hotel, transfers, and flights through them. FPP Edu-Media can take care of all the transportation and accommodation of the tour if you like. FPP Edu-Media also provide bilingual assistants at a small fee.
- Reach every student! An Email Blast is sent to all event visitors (one blast with all exhibitors) providing yet another opportunity to be seen by students who came to the events, but perhaps did not stop at your booth.
- Keep branding and recruiting after the events! FREE Standard Profile for 6 months in FPP Edu-Media Online Study Abroad Guides, accessed by over 1 million students registered all over Latin America, Portugal and Spain. Standard profiles are NOT sold. They are exclusively for FPP Edu-Media EXPO Exhibitors and the only to have the Exclusive EXPO Exhibitor Seal.
- Don’t lose the contacts you make during the EXPO due to bad handwriting! Give them the name of the student and they will provide you with their correct email and contact information.
- Discounts of up to 30% if you attend the entire Road Show.
If you are interested in recruiting students from Brazil for the Brazilian summer (December, January and February) or for your undergrad and graduate programs for 2009, we recommend that you attend our Brazil Road Show from Sep 2nd to Sep 14th.
If you cannot come yourself or send a representative, FPP Edu-Media offers to manage your table, hand out your brochures, provide information on your programs, and send you all the students’ contact information for follow-up yourself, or we can even follow-up on them after the events.
FPP Edu-Media is your all-in-one marketing solution in Latin America. After Brazil, FPP Edu-Media will visit Colombia, Costa Rica, Panama and Mexico, offering the same complete and high-quality recruitment services.
Here are some of the testimonials from previous attendees of FPP Edu-Media.
Hawaii Pacific University, USA
“FPP Media gives you the personal attention you need and the exposure you want. They also have a well-defined niche market strategy and will take you to potential latent markets that are not overwhelmed by other study abroad tours. In addition, and most importantly, the FPP Media team is much more than simply fair organizers. They are business partners! They want the success of the institutions that travel with them, proposing strategic promotional and marketing strategies beyond the fair that will enhance your recruitment efforts and exposure. Last but not least.. Fabiana, Daniela, John, Michael, Daniel and Julio are a wonderful and pleasant team.”
Guilherme Albieri
Politecnico di Milano, Italy
“You have a very good organization and team. I am happy especially with the assistance I received in every city I went to and with the quality and quantity of information provided. I’ll be looking forward to participating at more events. Thank you again for everything.”
Dario Consoli
International Relations Manager
Lemania Group of Schools, Switzerland
“Having already participated in the FPP Media fairs, I know they are very well promoted and attract a lot of interest from potential students. It is always a great pleasure to come to the Road Show. We never get bored during the fairs due to the important number of visitors. Everything was organized perfectly well in order to help schools meet as many students as possible. The support and attention given by the staff is very much appreciated. To be so nicely welcomed by such friendly and competent people, just makes us want to come ! Thank you Daniela, Julio, Thomas and John!!”
Esperanza Perni
Manager of International Division
don Quijote, Spain
“It’s just like whatever you do, it’s done as best as possible. It’s for people like you that we must carry on, improving and growing day after day! I have to tell you that I’ve been working in the international education field for the last 6 years and never participated in such well organized fair with such high quality visitors. Congratulations! Once more, thank you for everything. It was really nice participating and meeting all of your team!”
Adelia Azevedo
Marketing Representative
London Metropolitan University, UK
“We only attended the fair in Sao Paulo as my schedule did not allow any other cities but it proved to be very useful indeed. We made some good contacts at the agent workshop. It was a huge bonus to spend time with very focused, confident English speaking students, many of whom had visited our website beforehand. I was impressed by the quality of the students who were largely aged 21+ and therefore focused and realistic about what they could and could not do and had a fairly clear idea of what they wanted to do. Overall we were extremely busy – did not have one break from 2-8pm and would definitely consider attending again in the future.”
Nichole Carpenter
International Officer
California Baptist University, USA
“These fairs went beyond my expectations. The support given by FPP Media was outstanding and all events were well organized. I would also give praise to the translators that made the events successful for me.”
Allen Johnson
Director of Undergraduate Admissions
University of California (San Diego), USA
“You provided invaluable information that none of the other fair organizers produce. The fair in Buenos Aires resulted in three outstanding contacts (educational agents) besides the students I saw. FPP support was excellent and the volume of students is impressive. I’ll recommend this tour to other colleagues at my school, and hope to try a couple of cities again next year.”
Dan Chatham
Director of Recruitment & Admissions
The London College, UK
“It is a worthwhile opportunity for any school to attend this exhibition. We would recommend the Road Show to other institutions.”
Dr Alan Janbey
Academic Dean
Austral Idiomas, Argentina
“As you know, I participated in this year’s March Road Show and believed those events were the best we have ever attended in any country – in fact, they were perfect. But this September, the fairs and workshops were even better – yes it is true – you have improved upon perfect. We enrolled six students at the Sao Paulo event alone, four students in Porto Alegre and four in Curitiba. Four of these students start their courses in November, plus the amount and high-quality of e-mails we are receiving from students we met at the EXPO will lead to many more enrolments – I’m sure. Another note – the social events, you organize and the opportunities you provide for participants to get to know each other over the week are very enjoyable. See you in March 2006 – I already can’t wait.”
Wenderson Mota
Director
Fast Forward Language Institute, Brazil
“Thanks again for another great event – the Lima fair was excellent. As long as you continue to put on these high-quality events, we will be with you every 6 months.”
Ernesto Lemos
Director
Moira House Girls School, UK
“Thank you very much for all your hard work in organizing the tour in Sao Paulo and Porto Alegre. I received lots of enquiries at the Student Fair and we have followed them up already from here. Everyone was extremely friendly and did their very best to make the event a big success.”
Nicky Whitefield Smith
Marketing and PR Manager
British Study Centres, UK
“A well-organized and professional Road Show. The pre-screening of students ensures high quality enquiries. I was impressed and will return next year.”
Andrew Roper
Marketing Director
Intensive School of English, UK
“I’m very happy with the results, as I already brought students within less that 4 weeks after the EXPO. You can book a place for me in the next one, I will be there.”
Tony Eke
Managing Director
Griffith College Dublin, Ireland
“The numbers of students attending and their quality far exceeded my expectations. I will recommend that GCD participate in the next set of events.”
Peter Casey
Marketing Representative
Boston College Lincolnshire, UK
“Very good and well organized, by a very nice group of people. Thank you for the referrals (after the events), and for your continuing help to recruit from Brazil.”
Norman Day
International Manager
London Skills Institute, UK
“It was excellent, enjoyable and rewarding. I’m sure it is going to promote our school and we will be next year!”
