Lead-to-Enrolment Conversion

Q: Can the automation handle leads from multiple marketing channels?

Yes, the system captures leads from website forms, ad responses, and other sources, normalizing data and routing them through the same qualification and enrolment workflow.

Q: What if a student doesn't pay after the first reminder?

The system sends automatic reminders at configurable intervals and escalates unpaid invoices to a sales rep for manual follow-up after a set number of days.

Q: Will existing lead and customer data be affected?

Historical data remains intact; the automation applies only to new leads and enrolments going forward, with an optional backfill for recent records.

Q: Can the welcome email be customized for different courses?

Yes, email templates are customized by course level, start date, and student segment, pulling dynamic content from the CRM to personalize each message.

Convert course enquiries into confirmed enrolments faster by automating follow-up, nurture, and payment collection.

1. Lead Submits Enquirytrigger

New lead form submission or ad response is detected. Lead record is created with name, email, course interest, and budget.

2. Qualify Lead Automatically

The automation evaluates lead against course fit rules: budget match, course level, availability. Lead is tagged as Qualified or Not Qualified.

3. Send Welcome Email

Personalised welcome email is sent immediately, including course details, next steps, and payment link.

4. Create Enrolment Record
