What is Elimu Advertisements/Sponsorship?

This can be in form of banner messages that Elimu places on every school website. They carry messages from specific corporate about products of interest to the school communities. The sponsorship package is similar to the advertisements with an additional banner on the corporate sponsored schools websites acknowledging the sponsor and their message. Some corporate banner messages can be viewed on any Elimu School Website:

Why advertisements?

We advocate for corporate to get involved in the initiative by way of Advertising since this is an opportunity to get exposure to possible consumers by introducing products to them from their convenience, comfort and at their own time.
This is because accessing the adverts from the schools websites, for example in the case of a parent browsing their child's school site, will be on their terms and time, a factor which means the advert is not rushed, limited or causing interruption or inconvenience to them.

Advertising on our platform is ideal because;

1. It is the only one of its kind in Kenya
2. It has an unlimited audience made up of the school going community from all ages Teachers, Parents and the students themselves both alumni and current.
3. It is relatively cheap compared to traditional methods,
4. The expose time of your message is guaranteed for 24hrs-7days, and
5. The reach is spread throughout the country and beyond borders.

How are the adverts run?

Elimu reserves space on the school websites where your message is strategically placed. The message is displayed on the network of school websites now at 227sites. This space is given to willing corporate for a monthly rate, taken as a sponsorship as a big percentage of the revenues generated are used to further recruit more schools to benefit from online presence.

Statistics:

Elimu offers great value for money. The schools' combined hits from parents, students, teachers, alumni members and the general public run into thousands every day. The websites are becoming increasingly busy, with a traffic build of over 80,000 views a month(December stats) and a click through ration of between 0.5-1%, our ever growing audience of over 300,000 people, make up a market that has great untapped potential to turn into valuable consumers.
