About Us
HOW
CRM builds workforce development campaigns that help states attract, inform, and guide future educators. Drawing on our statewide and national recruitment campaigns, we develop teacher recruitment strategies aligned with K-12 workforce priorities; we know how to turn broad awareness into meaningful career action.
Channels
Our approach combines multimedia marketing, audience targeting, career pathway messaging, and job-seeker support to reach students, career changers, paraprofessionals, and purpose-driven adults. From special education to general education, CRM helps states make teaching visible, accessible, and compelling.
WHO
CR Marketing Partners Kathy Schaefer and Joe Ross coordinate a 12-person team of writers, designers, analysts, social media experts, and software developers.
CRM has worked with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, Manpower Corporation, the State of Ohio, the State of Michigan, and a dozen other public and private sector organizations.
