Unlock the secret to better buying.
Arbol equips public school district leaders with the expertise they need to conquer the sales game.
Buying EdTech isn’t as easy as you think, and your students, staff, and bottom line are paying the price…
Time and again, vendors promise the moon and school district administrators guess on which EdTech instructional software is going to best support student learning, keep teachers excited to leverage the new technology, and help the district make significant progress towards their strategic goals.
If you can’t cut through the noise and know exactly which instructional software is going to be the right fit for you and why, you run the risk of having all of this work get lost amidst the demands of the school year.
Not only does this lead to overspending, but students and teachers waste their time learning yet a new platform, stuck coping with the limitations of inadequate tools. Student progress doesn’t move forward and teachers feel like instructional tech support. This creates a lack of confidence in decision-making and disengagement. But most importantly, you’re missing out on opportunities for transformative teaching and learning experiences.
As John Wooden said, “If you don’t have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?”
But it’s understandable this isn’t easier.
Time is already scarce for your essential tasks.
This leaves little, if any, capacity for researching and procuring the ideal instructional software. It also makes crafting and issuing RFPs a monumental task.
All of the “solutions” look the same and do the same things.
Yet, the salesperson is telling you that they’re different and they’re the right choice, but you can’t really tell for yourself.
Your team is few, juggling the work of many.
Bigger districts have whole teams solely dedicated to these types of projects, but you wear many hats in your district and don’t have the resources.
This isn’t your expertise, and you don’t know where to start.
You are the expert in student learning and education, not in writing RFPs and deciphering sales-speak on all of the vendor websites.
