Who is your buyer? The education market is complex. It’s hard to know who you need to reach, or how to reach them. Even before the pandemic, educators and administrators had rapidly changing needs as technologies changed what was possible in education. In the past two years, these changes have accelerated.

At PRP, we’ve helped companies reach the education market for more than a decade. If you create, market, or sell products for the pre-K–12 education market, you need to know your buyers, and know them well! 

Podcasts are a fantastic medium that provide ways for all of us to hear directly from our ideal customers. The unfiltered format helps you understand how they think, what they worry about, and how to talk to them.
