#MeritMakers: March Wrap-up Edition
?? Energetic, enriching, and joyous – that’s how we March-ed the last month of the last quarter of 2023. Our calendar was filled with lively experiences both on and off office (read field). From engaging industry events and insightful webinars to spirited cricket matches and the colorful festivities of Holi, this month was nothing short of magical for all of us at Meritto – the Operating System for Student Recruitment and Enrollment.?
Amidst the hustle and bustle, we're reminded of the importance of unity and joy in our mission to empower educational organizations worldwide. So, before we step into a brand new month, let’s zoom into the highlights of March where each day has left its mark on our collective journey of solving for the customers.
So to begin with, we didn’t just March, we took a #LEAP ??
March started on a bright note as our #MeritMakers touched base in Riyadh for LEAP , engaging with leaders in education and technology, and showcasing our powerful, purpose-built solutions for enrollment growth at one of the world's most influential tech event.

March was a whirlwind of activity for our #MeritMakers, who took to the stage at two of the most prestigious events in the education sector: The Economic Times TechEDU India Summit in Mumbai and the Education Promotion Society for India 's National Conference on India@2047 in Pune.

We celebrated the powerhouse women of Meritto, the Meritto way
International Women's Day wasn't just a date on the calendar for us; it was an opportunity to spotlight the extraordinary women whose dedication, leadership, and resilience illuminate every corner of Meritto.
Across our offices in Gurgaon, Bengaluru, and Chennai, the air was filled with enthusiasm as we organized a variety of activities to mark this special day. The agenda was packed with speeches that sparked reflection, meals that brought us closer, and the sharing of empowering stories that highlighted the diverse journeys and achievements of our women colleagues.
Here are the moments from a day filled with gratitude and love.
When cheers and applause echoed through the halls for #OperationsAtMeritto ??
Amidst an atmosphere buzzing with excitement and anticipation, we gathered to recognize the unwavering commitment and tireless efforts of our team that ensure our customers continue to thrive and grow their enrollments, day in and day out.
Their dedication fuels our success and the success of our customers, and strengthens our commitment to excellence in everything we do to empower education organizations for enrollment growth.
And the journey of solving for the customers continues ??
In our ongoing quest to solve for the customer, our #MeritMakers hit the road again, embarking on enriching visits to meet the amazing teams at Adamas University , KIIT - Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology , and St. Xavier's University . These visits go beyond routine check-ins — they're about showcasing our latest advancements, sharing insights into future trends in education, and demonstrating our commitment to elevating the academic experience on a global scale.

It wasn’t just another series of talks; it was a knowledge feast that left our audience all a little wiser, a tad more inspired, and definitely eager for more. Let's dive into what these webinars were about and what made them absolute blockbusters.
Communicate to Convert???
Our kickoff webinar ventured into the whys and hows of hyper-personalizing communications with prospective students, which is more important than ever and isn't just an option anymore. It's necessary to deliver experiences that make an education organization stand out and grow enrollments like never before. Our expert speakers, Satyajit Sahu and Rabia Monga , delved into the common challenges that most enrollment marketers face, how organizations could overcome them, and the secrets to delivering personalized experiences at scale.

Growing enrollments on the go ??♀?
Growing enrollments doesn’t just happen at the desk. That is why organizations need to equip their sales and counseling teams on the move to continuously engage and convert students—all while you also keep track of their productivity and performance. This was what our second #illuminateByMeritto webinar was all about, where our expert speakers, Aman Chaurasia , Pavithra Karthikeyan , and Rohan Varshney , focused on how education organizations can focus on what really matters the most, using a purpose-built mobile application to grow student enrollments.
?? Proudly, this session stood out for its interactive depth and was celebrated for its practical solutions, making it another hallmark in our #illuminateByMeritto series. For those who missed the live experience, we offer a bridge to the treasure trove of insights through the session's recording available here.
When our #MeritMakers delved into making fee payments - easier, faster and more secure ??
Our concluding webinar for the month tackled the ever-pertinent issue of managing fee payments—an aspect that many education organizations find challenging. We understand that keeping track of every single payment and making sure everything adds up can feel like a never-ending puzzle. But what if there’s a way to make all of that easier? That’s exactly what our expert speakers, Pritam Pradhan , Lokesh G. , and Manish Goyal , uncovered in this webinar.
?? With questions and insights flying, it was clear this was a hot topic that hit home for many. It felt more like a vibrant exchange than a one-way webinar, proving the power of shared challenges and solutions. Keen to jump in on the action? The full session awaits just a click away.

It was epic, it was fun, it was #PowerPlayByMeritto ??
This month was a knockout, featuring an event that easily takes the crown as one of the quarter's most memorable highlights. Building on the momentum of #MeritLabsByMeritto, our in-house innovation hub, and its successful launch last quarter, we've decided to step up our game, this time with #PowerPlayByMeritto. While #MeritLabsByMeritto is designed to test and empower the innovation and creativity skills of our #MeritMakers (remember the inaugural AI Agent Challenge with its ?1 lakh prize pool? If not, read the whole story here), #PowerPlayByMeritto takes a different approach. How exactly? Here it is ??
Imagine an arena where the spirit of sportsmanship meets the heart of our hardworking #MeritMakers. Yes, we're talking about a high-energy series of internal sports tournaments, designed to promote teamwork, collaboration, and a sense of leadership amongst our people.?
The idea was simple- while our #MeritMakers dedicate themselves to solving for the customers with unmatched passion, why not sprinkle in a bit of joy, relieve stress playfully, and bring everyone together as one big unified team? Thus, #PowerPlayByMeritto was born, launching with its inaugural event, The Turf-Cricket Edition. ??
Here are the quick-hits, the must-know highlights you shouldn't miss:
But, who emerged as the champions? What epic battles unfolded on the field? Who were the standout batsmen and bowlers? We're bubbling with excitement to share every juicy detail, yet we're saving the full narrative for a special blog post that could pop up on your feed sometime soon.?
In the meantime, here’s a video, very close to our hearts,? from the final day of the Turf-Cricket edition of #PowerPlayByMeritto which was also accompanied by the Holi celebration. Trust us, this will bring the tournament to life, ensuring you feel every hit, run, and cheer as if you were there in person.?
Now, as we bid farewell to March, we #MeritMakers carry the energy, enthusiasm, and camaraderie we've cultivated throughout the month into the days ahead. We're not just saying goodbye to another month; we're carrying a vibrant torch of energy and excitement into the future. Together, we’ll continue to inspire, empower, and make a positive impact in the world of education.
So watch out for more from the Operating System for Student Recruitment and Enrollment!
