PRP Group’s Anonymous Edvisors (AE) platform automates feedback sessions between administrators and education vendors. Through AE, administrators leverage their experience and expertise to offer companies actionable insights that only their target buyers can provide—and to earn additional income by completing sessions.
AE gives administrators an opportunity to shape existing and emerging education products by helping vendors respond to the actual needs, interests, and insights of working educators. The platform provides a flexible pathway for busy administrators to earn supplemental income when they want, and on projects they care about. Because all AEs are current or recent administrators, companies can be sure they are paired with experts. Areas in which AEs provide feedback include:
• Key messaging;
• Product feedback and reviews;
• Competitor analysis;
• Budget and pricing; and
• Buyer personas.
The platform anonymizes administrators’ identities, expediting unfiltered and unbiased feedback without the risk of conflicts of interest. Anonymous Edvisors who are currently engaging with vendors include a CAO, a superintendent, and an edtech director.
An assistant superintendent who serves as an AE said the platform is “very straightforward,” adding, “it is a great way to share feedback, and provides a voice for those of us in the field of education.”
Vendors can request sessions based on the criteria that matter most to them, including administrators’ roles and responsibilities, areas of professional interest, areas of expertise, regional focus, and district demographics. The platform then recommends appropriate and available AEs.
The Anonymous Edvisor platform offers users:
• A platform designed from the ground up for education, featuring an automated onboarding process and Google login for ease of use;
• A streamlined process for identifying the perfect AE, then booking and conducting sessions;
• Anonymous and asynchronous consulting sessions that free AEs to be candid and creative in their feedback and provide companies access to administrators whom they would not normally be able to work with due to time or contractual limitations;
• Access to past sessions and responses, helping all users to stay abreast of multi-session projects and allowing vendors to make comparisons between AEs or note changes in feedback over time;
• Automated document sharing and project management with notifications for both parties as projects—most of which are completed in a few days— are finalized.
