Any other approach will lead to retention or job placement issues, possibly causing a violation of regulations and a cut of Title IV funding. The best way to make sure that the every student is a good fit for your school is to look at your marketing and admissions process. This webinar will teach you how automating compliance in your recruiting process will actually increase the efficiency of your marketing spend and admissions team.

PerformLine CEO Alex Baydin and Mario Vaccari, Vice President of Product Management, Speaking at #LeadsCon East!!

New York will be alive next week as LeadsCon–THE lead generation conference–comes to the Big Apple August 24-25th at the Hilton New York.

LeadsCon serves the needs of the online customer acquisition arena with a specific focus on lead generation. This segment of the online advertising space contains some of the most dynamic, successful, and innovative companies, but it is also a sector that has been historically under-served.

On Wednesday, August 24, Alex Baydin will be discussing “What Every EDU Marketer Must Know” from 2:15-3pm. For those with any emphasis on for-profit-education, July 1st was a very meaningful date. That is when the revised guidelines issued by the Department of Education went into effect. Despite, or perhaps because of the lengthy regulations, many in the marketplace still have questions as to what proper compliance means and where accountability lies. Our panel of experts cut through the confusion delivering indispensable advice.

Joining Alex on the stage will be moderator Jeff Leibl, Chief Strategy Officer, eBureau as well as Tom Anderson, CEO of Education Dynamics, and Pamela Kearse, Senior Associate, Dickstein Shapiro, LLC.

On Thursday, Alex will be joined by Mario Vaccari, PerformLine’s vice president of product management, from 2:00-2:50pm as they take a Deeper Dive into fraud and compliance issues facing the industry with David Sendroff, CEO of CPA Detective; Hagai Shechter, Founder & CEO, Fraudlogix; and Craig Swerdloff, Founder & CEO, LeadSpend.

PerformLine is excited to not only be taking the stage twice this year, but will also be exhibiting so be sure to stop by Exhibit Booth #T35 in between sessions!

In the News: PerformLine Announces PerformMatch™ Private Link Service

Provides higher education marketers compliance monitoring for affiliate referring URLs, while allowing lead sellers to keep all referring URLs confidential.
New York, NY (PRWEB) August 02, 2011 

PerformLine, the leading independent provider of marketing compliance monitoring technologies, announced today the launch of PerformMatch™ Private Link Service (PLS), a managed escrow service that addresses the challenging issue of marketing compliance and referring URL privacy. PerformMatch™ PLS provides education marketers and lead buyers the automated referring URL compliance transparency they demand, while protecting lead sellers and their proprietary and confidential marketing information, including the identities of sub-affiliates and the key word lists used in paid search that are used to drive traffic.

PerformMatch™ PLS is a turn key solution that monitors all affiliate and sub-affiliate pages for compliance violations. The service evaluates each referring URL against PerformMatch™ BPS, its Best Practices for Schools rules set, which identities misrepresentations as outlined by the Department of Education. Evaluated referring URLs are assigned compliance scores with a corresponding violation summary and then reported back to the education institution or their partners in a unique and anonymous fashion. Compliance managers can then notify non-compliant affiliates of the necessary corrections that need to be made to their landing pages and/or creative. PerformMatch PLS also enables automated follow-up with the affiliates to ensure conformity, streamlining the compliance process for education marketers. By assigning each referrer a unique PerformMatch™ PLS ID, the offering is both buy -side and sell-side friendly, allowing compliance to be a mutual goal for both. Read More on PR Web…

Facilitating Marketing Compliance Between Lead Buyers and Sellers

Lead sellers running affiliate programs in the education online lead generation industry are under more scrutiny than ever from their lead buyers after the July 1st launch of new U.S. Department of Education (DOE) regulations. Lead buyers require compliance. And many lead buyers define “proof” of compliance as full transparency of their lead sources. But for lead sellers, giving away this proprietary information is risky. It’s the secret sauce of the most reputable affiliate networks in the industry.

Some sellers have taken drastic steps to ensure that the lead generation services it provides to its education clients fully reflect recent guidance from the DOE. We have been informed of lead programs from major providers that have completely stopped for a full audit. But most companies can not take that revenue risk.

Today PerformLine announced PerformMatch™ Private Link Service. This service provides higher education marketers compliance monitoring for affiliate referring URLs,
while allowing lead sellers to keep all referring URLs confidential.

PerformMatch™ PLS is able to solve the friction in the marketplace caused by both maintaining the confidentiality of proprietary assets of the lead sellers as well as ensuring compliance for the lead buyers. As an independent source of compliance, we are able to listen to the challenges on both the buy and sell side. We created the only independent verification solution that enables lead sellers to provide the compliance monitoring data that schools are demanding while still keeping their vast array of affiliate referring URLs concealed. It’s a win-win for all.

Department of Education to Implement Marketing Compliance Regulations

The Department of Education today announced that it is on schedule to implement new regulations of the for-profit education sector dealing with gainful employment and 13 other issues to protect students and taxpayers. The regulations will be released in two phases, the first due to launch July 1, 2011. The ultimate goal is accountability and consumer protection:

“These schools and their investors benefit from billions of dollars in taxpayers subsidies, and in return, taxpayers have a right to know that all of these programs are providing solid preparation for a job,” Duncan continued. “We want to be as thoughtful as possible as we move forward. We’re taking additional time to analyze all the feedback we’ve received to help us strike the right balance between holding these programs accountable to protect students and taxpayers from abuse and making sure we keep whole those programs that are doing a good job.”

PerformLine looks forward to implementing tools that will help our clients manage to these new guidelines. More on that soon!
