Key Questions for Your Potential OPM
How will you make our degree and/or certificate programs stand out?
Apollidon’s market research team does extensive competitor research to understand what your competition is doing, how effectively they’re doing it, and what you’ll need to do to stand out.
The solution to differentiation often involves a combination of impactful, call-to-action-driven marketing content and strategic program choices that address gaps in the current education market, particularly where the demands of the working world are not being met by existing offerings.
Do you offer all the services our institution needs to launch and support online programs?
Apollidon provides end-to-end services, and our experienced team can help you attract and retain target students and elevate your status as a premier regional or international provider of online education programs.
Can we select individual services, or do we have to use all of them?
Apollidon recognizes that every university and program is unique, requiring tailored marketing and service support. To meet these diverse needs, we offer a customizable menu of services. Our solutions are available as a comprehensive platform or individually on a fee-for-service basis: ideal if you’re seeking market research or consulting services.

What’s your payment model?
We offer a no-risk model that takes varying costs and budgets into account. This means we don’t get paid until our efforts translate into students enrolling in your programs. We take on the initial financial risk and enter into a revenue-share model with your institution.
What are your team’s qualifications?
The Apollidon team is composed of dedicated, highly experienced professionals in education, marketing, business, customer engagement, web development, design, content, and consulting. Our work speaks for itself.
How long have you been in business?
Apollidon has been serving our valued university partners since 2008.
Will you market programs that directly compete with our programs?
Apollidon will only represent a single program of a specific type. This exclusivity guarantees that our efforts are fully dedicated to finding and supporting students for your program. We do not share prospective leads for your online education programs with other institutions or programs.
What are your cybersecurity protocols?
We uphold the highest cybersecurity standards to safeguard your institution, employees, and students. Our measures include advanced encryption technologies for secure data storage and transmission across networks, along with a comprehensive disaster recovery plan for our hosting platform.
We ensure full compliance with FERPA, HIPAA, ADA/WCAG 2.0, and all applicable regulations for online service providers, as well as federal, state, and university policies.
Do you work with every client that requests your services?
Apollidon supports accredited universities and colleges. We do not work with for-profit institutions.
