The education playbook. Built in the builder, decided by your records.

Ten journeys, each drawn below as it runs. The decision comes from your admissions system, your LMS, your ledger or criteria you set; the journey carries it. Aims are targets to agree in the pilot, not results.

Offer the next course the day the last one ends.

A final module completed asks your catalogue whether the next course in the track is open and not yet taken, then sends one WhatsApp with Enrol or Not now; a tap goes to your system to enrol them.

Decides
your catalogue and your enrolment rules.
Aim
the next enrolment without a sales call.
Built in the journey builder
Offer the next course the day the last one endsEDUCATIONYour catalogue answers before anyone is offered anything.

Drawn as it would run in the builder. Thresholds, windows and channel order are the ones you set; the decision at each API step comes from your system.

What it takes to run
Intended outcome
the next enrolment without a sales call.
Trigger
final module completed (your LMS)
Events and identifiers
final module completed (your LMS). The trigger arrives from your system by API with your customer identifier and the fields named in the trigger. Example inputs; map them to your own event names and identifiers at setup. Every event carries your customer identifier.
Your systems in the loop
next course open? enrolled? (your catalogue) · your system enrols them. Your system validates and executes each of these; the journey sends the request and branches on the answer.
Consent
Per-channel consent on the contact record is checked before any send.
Stops when
no tap: silence. The customer completes the step the journey waits for, the deadline on a wait passes, or the branch drawn for silence ends.
If a channel fails or nobody answers
A channel that reports failure advances the fallback order on that carrier signal; silence takes the path drawn for it, with the deadline you set. Delivery callbacks that arrive late update the record when they arrive. An API step that answers no, or fails, takes the branch drawn for it; the platform does not act on your system's behalf beyond that request.
Success metric
the next enrolment without a sales call. Population: contacts who entered the journey in the window. Compared with the baseline window agreed before the pilot, on the conversion events you define. A before-and-after difference is a comparison, not proof of cause.

Offer the early-bird renewal while they are still learning.

A plan ending in thirty days checks whether a lesson was opened this week, fetches the plan and price from your billing system, then sends one WhatsApp with Renew early or Not now; a tap goes to your billing system to renew.

Decides
your billing system and the window you set.
Aim
renewals before the plan lapses.

Finish the application that stopped at the documents step.

A session with the documents step opened and no upload sends one WhatsApp with a link back to the step and the deadline from your admissions system, reminds once before the deadline, and calls if it is still open.

a rule you set, and the deadline your system holds.
Aim
