Muhammed Basheer, Head of Marketing at AIMER Business School

I help education brands turn attention into admissions.

Six years in marketing, growing education brands across India, the GCC and beyond. I bring ATL, BTL, digital, referral and CRM together into one plan, so leadership can see what's working and fix what isn't.

Brands and institutions I've worked with

It started with conversations, not campaigns.

My career began in business development, in direct conversations with parents and clients. I heard every reason a family says yes, and every reason they hesitate. Most of those reasons had nothing to do with the ad they'd seen.

That stayed with me through four promotions at MeeM EdTech, leading marketing for GoL School and QuranTutor.ai, and now as Head of Marketing at AIMER Business School. Admissions are won across the whole journey: the brand people already trust, a recommendation from a friend, the seminar they attended, how fast someone calls them back.

  • Ethical, transparent marketing

    Education is a family decision. I don't promise what the institution can't deliver, and clarity builds the trust that converts.

  • Speed wins the enquiry

    The first reply often decides it. I automate routing and follow-up so no lead waits.

  • Report in admissions, not clicks

    Every dashboard I build ends at the number leadership actually cares about.

Expertise

A marketer who builds the machine, too.

Strategy is half the job. The other half is the systems behind it: the CRM, the automations, the dashboards and the pages. I build those myself.

  • Lead generation

    Full-funnel Meta and Google campaigns that bring in qualified enquiries, not just volume.

  • Salesforce & CRM

    CRM set up around how admissions teams actually work: stages, routing, ownership and reporting.

  • Marketing automation

    Every lead captured, acknowledged, assigned and followed up without anyone copying data.

How the system runs

No lead waits.
No lead gets lost.

This is the kind of lead engine I build: from the first click to an admitted student, every step connected and tracked.

  2. PageLanding page or chatbotEnquiry captured
  3. CRMSalesforce / LeadSquaredLead created and assigned

Full marketing mix

Above the line, below the line, and everything between.

Families see a school on a billboard, meet it at a seminar, ask a friend, then search online. I plan every touchpoint together, so each channel strengthens the next.

  • ATL

    Outdoor & media

    Visibility and credibility at scale.

    Outdoor campaigns, hoardings and media partnerships

  • BTL

    On-ground

    Face-to-face trust in the communities you serve.

    School and campus outreach, seminars, career talks, events and exhibitions

  • Digital

    Performance & organic

    Measurable demand, every day.

    Meta and Google Ads, SEO and AEO, content and social media

  • Referral

    Word of mouth

    The most trusted channel in education, run as a programme rather than left to chance.

    Parent and student referral programmes, alumni and ambassador networks

  • PR

    Partnerships & influence

    Borrowed trust from voices people follow.

    Media partners, creators and influencers, institutional tie-ups

  • CRM

    Nurture & retention

    Turning enquiries into enrolments, and students into advocates.

    WhatsApp and email journeys, lead follow-up, re-enrolment

Approach

Five disciplines, run as one system.

Most teams run these separately and wonder why results stall. I plan them together, so a fix in one shows up in admissions. Select one to see what it covers.
