A subscription marketing service for schools without a dedicated marketer. Reliable social media, fresh website content, parent newsletters, recruitment campaigns: all handled. Cancel anytime, no lock-in.
Every other school marketing agency we looked at hid their pricing behind enquiry forms, making you fill in a contact form just to find out what something costs. We thought that was a bit silly. So we put it on the page. What you see is what you pay. No quotes to chase, no surprises.
All prices in AUD per month. Cancel anytime, no lock-in.
Tier doesn't quite fit? Within reason, we'll swap like-for-like inclusions to make your tier work for your school. (Trade a newsletter for extra social posts, that sort of thing.) Just ask during your free audit.
Prospectus refresh, full website rebuild, video shoot, podcast launch, recruitment campaign, open day artwork: pick anything from our service menu and we'll quote it. One subscription, full flexibility.
If your subscription tier doesn't include it, you can add it on, quoted simply, billed transparently, delivered properly.
Tell us a little about your school. We'll review your website, social presence, and visibility to prospective parents and staff, then walk you through what's working, what isn't, and where the biggest opportunities are.
Your audit request has come through. We'll be in touch within one business day to schedule your free 30-minute call.
Questions in the meantime? Email us at hello@spokeninjest.com or call 0450 732 788.
A genuine review of your school's current marketing: your website, social presence, and how visible you are to prospective parents and teaching staff. You'll get a written audit document you can keep and use, whether or not you decide to subscribe. No PowerPoint sales pitch. No pressure.
None. Subscriptions are month-to-month. Cancel any time with 30 days' notice and you're done. We're confident enough in the work that we don't need to lock you in.
Because schools are time-poor and shouldn't need to fill in a form to find out if something fits the budget. Hidden pricing is usually about charging different schools different rates. We charge everyone the same, and we put it on the page.
Yes, within reason. We can swap like-for-like inclusions in your tier to make it fit your school, for example, trading a newsletter for extra social posts, or swapping a news story for an extra website update. Just have a chat with us at your free audit and we'll work out what suits you best.
If you're a small school or just dipping your toes in, Recess at $495/month gets you visible without straining the budget. Most schools fit best at First Bell ($750) or Second Bell ($1,500). Final Bell ($2,800) is for schools who want a true marketing partner doing video, podcast, prospectus and recruitment work all year. Not sure? Book the free audit and we'll point you to whichever fits, even if that's "wait six months and start later".
Just add it on. Need a prospectus refresh, a video, a recruitment campaign, an open day push? Pick from our full service menu and we'll quote it: no new contract, no fuss.
Yard Duty is a service from Spoken in Jest, a marketing consultancy with over 20 years of experience in digital, strategic and recruitment marketing. Your school is supported by a small, hands-on team led by senior marketing strategists. Hands-on, collaborative, and properly accountable.
Yes, all of them. Each has different priorities and constraints, but the underlying need (consistent, professional marketing that attracts parents and staff) is the same.
Honestly? Visibility improvements show up within weeks. Enrolment and recruitment results take longer, usually 1 to 2 terms, because parents typically research a school over months before enquiring. We report monthly so you can see progress as it builds.
Click any "Subscribe" button and you'll be taken to Stripe's secure checkout to enter your details. Your school will be billed monthly. We'll then be in touch within one business day to onboard you and start work. Cancel any time directly from the link in your billing emails.
Pick a subscription and start straight away, or book a free audit first to talk it through. Either way, we're here when you need us.
