The five workflows every industry shares
The same five run in all 27 industries. What changes for education is the overlay: the records, the stages and the words. How it works.
The Education overlay: Students, Enrollments, Inquiries, Programs, Enrollments. Stages: Inquiry → Campus Tour Scheduled → Application Submitted → Assessment Complete → Enrolled → Active Student.
Intake and triage
Every call, text, email and form becomes a inquiry on the student's record, with who, why and the next step. A fixed ladder of rules sorts it before any model is asked.
Touches: Opens the enrollment at Inquiry.
Follow-up
Moves each enrollment forward and writes down why each move happened. Chases the enrollments that have gone quiet, and stops when a person says stop.
Touches: Inquiry to Active Student, one stage at a time.
Scheduling
Books the visit, call or appointment on the calendar and on the enrollment, sends the confirmation and the reminder, and reschedules when the student asks.
Touches: The calendar and the enrollment.
Quoting
Prepares the quote from your price book or template, sends it once a person approves it, and follows up until it is answered.
Touches: Inquiries and the enrollment.
Reporting
Each day, what each agent did and what it proposed, built from the log of every action it took. Nothing is reported that was not recorded.
Touches: The record, read back to you.
