Read what Dordt College has to say about RuffaloCODY Phonathon Software.
“When choosing to automate our phone program, we sent out a few questions through list-serves and calls to other colleges. RuffaloCODY’s name repeatedly came up as a business worthy of closer investigation. We wanted a program with an affordable price; that worked well for our computer services department; that had an easy-to-use screen for our student callers; that was backed up by a reliable support staff if or when we had issues; and that allowed convenient project set-up.” Read More

Webinar: A Case Study – Florida Southern College
Learn how an admissions dean has utilized Enhanced Search Strategies and RuffaloCODY Inquiry Qualification to exceed his enrollment goals while most efficiently utilizing institutional resources:
Join us for a special webinar, Thursday, August 12, 1 pm EDT.
Since 2005, Florida Southern College has partnered with RuffaloCODY to meet several objectives, increasing enrollment and retention among them—and doing so with maximum financial efficiency.
First implementing an inquiry management strategy using RuffaloCODY Qualification, and then adding Enhanced Search Strategies in 2007, in the last five years, Florida Southern’s admissions efforts have achieved greater focus, measureable efficiency, and marked effectiveness throughout the entire enrollment cycle, with impressive results:
- 27% growth in applications
- 59% growth in first-year enrollment, with larger percentage of desired populations and higher standardized test scores
- 5% increase in freshmen to sophomore retention last year
Attend our special webinar to learn from Bill Langston, Dean of Admissions at Florida Southern, and Dennis Matthews, RuffaloCODY Vice President and Senior Consultant who partnered with Bill, how these results were achieved.
At RuffaloCODY, we believe in providing enrollment leaders services that are both strategic and practical; this webinar is one opportunity to examine not only the research behind this success, but also how Bill and his team were able to use this data to build relationships with the right students and, in doing so, surpass their goals.

RuffaloCODY Intern Spends Vacation Working in El Salvador
Marketing Graphic Design Intern Matthew Peiper went to El Salvador for his summer vacation this year — but not to snorkel, cliff dive, or surf. Peiper and seven other members of the Stonebridge Church in Cedar Rapids traveled to El Progreso in the Sonsonate Region of El Salvador to help drill a freshwater well for villagers. (That’s Matt operating the drill in the photo above.)
“It was an amazing experience,” Peiper said. “I saw many things I’d never seen before. It took me 30 minutes to realize that the ‘abandoned’ buildings along the road actually were inhabited. They were often smaller than a garage, single-storied, and made of decaying concrete, rotting wood and corrugated steel.”
“The best part of the trip were the relationships we formed,” said Peiper. “Only two or three of the villagers could speak English, but through the smiles and excitement on their faces, we knew they appreciated what we were doing.”
