EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. Paid Marketing doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try Paid Marketing” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Austin education & training is a different game.
We’ve run Paid Marketing here. We know what it takes.
Austin education providers average $658 per enrollment — optimised paid campaigns deliver enrollments for $249–$319
Education is one of the highest-stakes paid advertising verticals in Austin — every enrollment represents significant lifetime value, yet most institutions are running generic search campaigns that drive up CPE without improving enrollment quality. Google Ad Grants (available to 501(c)(3) and equivalent institutions) offer $10,000/month in free Google Search advertising, yet the majority of eligible Austin institutions either don\'t claim the Grant or waste it on low-relevance keywords. The Austin education market, serving learners across tech, SaaS, real-estate industry sectors, has strong demand for professional development and training programmes — but capturing this demand profitably requires intent-mapped campaigns, remarketing sequences, and landing pages designed for enrollment conversion rather than general awareness.
The 3 places Austin education & training brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 education & training brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time Paid Marketing has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
Austin education clients typically see cost per enrollment fall 40–55% within 60–90 days, with Google Ad Grant fully activated and remarketing recovering 20%+ of course-interested visitors who previously left without inquiring.

The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.
| Omakaase | What we hear from most agencies | |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | ✓ Month-to-month. Walk away any time. | 12-month minimum (standard) |
| Who's on your account | ✓ Senior strategist. Doesn't rotate. | Account manager, often junior, rotates 6–12 months |
| Reporting cadence | ✓ Weekly Loom video + live dashboard | Monthly PDF report |
| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |

“Google Ads was our biggest cost centre. It's now our highest-margin acquisition channel. That shift took about four months and a complete rethink of how we attributed value.”

“The attribution model they built showed us that 40% of our paid conversions had an organic first-touch. We restructured the whole channel mix based on that one insight.”

“We'd been paying a premium for a 'strategic' agency that was running auto-bidding with a nice deck attached. The comparison when we switched was embarrassing.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
Is our institution eligible for the Google Ad Grant in Austin?
Google Ad Grants are available to registered non-profit educational institutions. In Austin, eligible institutions include registered charities, public schools, and qualifying non-profit training providers. We assess eligibility in week 1 and handle the full application process.
How much of the Google Ad Grant can we actually use?
The full $10,000/month is achievable with proper keyword structure, Quality Score optimisation, and campaign management. Most institutions without specialist management use less than $2,000/month due to compliance issues or poor keyword relevance.
What paid ad channels work best for education in Austin?
Google Search captures active enrollment intent; Google Display and Meta remarketing convert course-browsers over time; YouTube ads work well for showcase-style programme videos. The right mix depends on your programme type and Austin target demographic.
How do you measure cost per enrollment vs cost per lead?
We integrate with your CRM or enrollment system to track from ad click through inquiry through to enrolled student — so we optimise for actual enrollment cost, not just inquiry volume which can be misleading.
Can you manage campaigns during enrollment peak periods?
Yes — we build seasonal campaign overlays that increase budget and bid aggressiveness during your peak enrollment windows and pull back during quieter periods to maximise budget efficiency.
