I recently sent a follow-up email to a VP of Enrollment who wanted to engage us to train his Admissions Staff on our Value(s) Based Enrollment Methodology (VBEM).

In this blog, we build on that by looking at the differences between value propositions, messaging, and positioning—and how they translate into results.
