Innovation Ads, Inc. Launches "My Advisor" Online Academic Advising Chat
NEW YORK, August 24/PRNewswire/: This month www.innovationads.com/press, a provider of enrollment management solutions, is helping prospective college students ease the overwhelming decision of choosing a school. The company has launched its new online live-chat academic advising system for prospective college students, to be featured on CareersandEducation.com.

The live-chat academic advising feature, to be called "My Advisor," allows viewers who are logged-on to CareersAndEducation.com to engage in an online messaging session from the website. When viewing a page dedicated to a specific college or university, prospective students can type to a trained advisor at the www.innovationads.com/press Florida-based Academic Advising Center. If the student is interested in applying, The Academic Advising Center operators can even assist him or her with the application process.

Ivan Lozuk, Project Manager of Development for www.innovationads.com/press, explained the chat conversations on CareersAndEducation.com can be initiated by either a user or an operator. "The system is broken down by departmental website. Each department website is allocated a snippet of code, which then alerts the appropriate advisor to know when a logged-in user is viewing a school in his or her department." Lozuk also said that every operator's chatting window also features an icon photo of that advisor, so prospective students can feel more acquainted with whom they are communicating.

Iain Grae, President of Innovation Ads, pointed out that, "As with everything Innovation Ads does, this adds value to both the customers who go to the website and to the client. This feature allows students real-time responses with the operator, improves communication and lead generation between students and schools—and gives a service to clients which no other company has." Grae also added that "the My Advisor technology can be made available for free to the websites of schools who work with the company."
