EdExec - What makes us different?

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT? Our readers need, fast, focused and filtered information that adds value They are decision makers in the ever-changing education sector

A vital source of information EdExec’s audience has always been those dealing with business and financial management in schools. At its inception we ensured that the only people who received the magazine were decision makers, purse string holders, financial executives and business managers. EdExec has long been a vital source of information, support, advice and guidance for bursars and business managers across all sectors of education.

Fast, reliable and insightful The school business manager's role has changed beyond all recognition in the last decade and as such school business managers demand fast, reliable insight into all matters education, along with informative content to help them run their schools more cost-effectively. Education Executive, as the first – and still the leading – publication dedicated to SBMs, is ideally placed to meet their needs.

Facilitating good communication Our role is to facilitate good communication across what is acknowledged to be a key purchasing audience within the education sector. Our audience are by far the most important point of influence for education supplies and services, but, because they are extremely busy people with varied roles it’s a difficult one for suppliers to get their messages through to without strong marketing vehicles. This is where our high-quality, focused publications come in.

Kings of content Education Executive has always embraced new developments in an effort to improve the way our readers can enjoy our material.

But there’s one thing that we simply refuse to alter and that’s the high-quality of our original content. Gimmicks may come and go but our targeted, informative editorial will always maintain the same high levels.

No outsourcing necessary Unlike many of our competitors, EdExec’s content is written or commissioned by our dedicated in-house editorial team, all of whom have extensive experience of the subject matter and a nose for the stories our readers want to know about. Our unrivalled editorial excellence means that rather than simply regurgitating the news of the day, we offer analysis and develop the latest events and trends into in depth features dealing with the big issues that affect our target audience.

It's good to be different The magazine works very differently to others in the market, it is a monthly publication, filled with management content, specifically targeting bursars and business managers. Ours are market leading publications, very well received and respected within the business management community. Because of our long standing in the sector, we have an immense and loyal readership – they read and interact with our magazine and websites regularly, so we so we know that they're a captive audience.
