Abstract This paper presents a theoretical examination of the AIDA model- Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action and its applicability in the branding strategies of private colleges in the Delhi region. As higher education becomes increasingly competitive, private institutions face the ongoing challenge of attracting and retaining prospective students. Effective marketing communication plays a vital role in shaping institutional visibility and influencing student decision-making. The AIDA model, a foundational concept in marketing, provides a structured framework to assess how educational institutions engage their target audience across different stages of the enrollment journey.
This study adopts a theoretical approach, relying on secondary sources rather than primary data collection. The analysis draws upon existing literature, institutional websites, promotional campaigns, and relevant case studies to explore how the elements of the AIDA model are integrated into college marketing practices. Specific attention is given to the use of digital platforms, brand positioning, and content strategies tailored to student expectations.
Findings indicate that most of the institutions are effective in generating attention, interest fostering desire and prompting action from the students. The paper highlights the importance of cohesive, student-centric messaging that links academic offerings with career outcomes. This theoretical contribution offers insights into the strategic use of the AIDA model within the context of private higher education in the Delhi region and proposes adaptations of the model for a digitally influenced, culturally diverse audience.
Keywords AIDA Model, Higher Education Marketing, Private Colleges, Branding Strategies, Theoretical Analysis, Delhi Region.
