About This Automation

Enquiry-to-tour follow-up at early education centres involves manually logging parent enquiries, drafting personalised invitations, tracking responses, and chasing non-responders across multiple tools. Manual coordination creates delays, inconsistent follow-up, and lost leads.

Automation captures enquiries from all sources, deduplicates records, sends personalised tour invitations with tracking, and automatically follows up with non-responders. The result is faster parent response times and higher tour conversion rates.

Key features
Capture enquiries from website forms, email, and phone calls into a unified system
Automatically detect and merge duplicate parent records
Send personalised tour invitation emails with template customization
Track email opens and clicks to identify engaged parents
Automatically send follow-up emails to non-responders after a set period
Score leads by engagement level and flag cold leads for manual review

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Enquiry Submittedtrigger

Parent submits enquiry via website form or email is received. The automation platform captures the submission and extracts parent name, contact, child age, and preferred tour date.

2. Check for Duplicates

The automation queries to see if the parent email already exists. If found, the record is flagged for manual review. If new, the parent is created as a contact.

3. Create Lead Record

A new lead record is created with enquiry details, status set to 'Enquiry Received', and a follow-up date set to 3 days from now.

4. Send Tour Invitation Email

A personalised tour invitation email is sent using a template populated with parent name, available tour slots, and a direct link to confirm attendance.

5. Log Email Sent

The email send event is logged to the lead record, including timestamp and email template used.

6. Monitor Response and Update Status

The automation monitors for parent replies. When a response arrives, the lead status is updated to 'Tour Confirmed' or 'Tour Declined' and the tour date is recorded.

7. Send Follow-Up Reminder

If no response is received after 3 days, a follow-up email is automatically sent. If still no response after 5 days total, the lead is marked 'Cold' and a notification is sent to the admissions team for manual outreach.

8. Notify Team of Confirmed Tours

When a tour is confirmed, a message is sent to the admissions team with parent details and tour date, and the tour is added to the centre's shared calendar.
