Common Questions

Nowdesk's AI is trained on your financing options, ISA terms, payment plan structures, and eligibility criteria. Prospects can get detailed, accurate answers about cost and payment via WhatsApp without admissions team involvement — and when a prospect is ready to discuss financing in depth, the conversation is routed to a human with full context already captured.

Yes. Nowdesk tracks the source of each conversation — whether from a job board ad, career change forum, organic social, or alumni referral link — and attributes enrolments back to their originating channel. This gives your marketing team the data to optimise spend toward the channels producing enrolled students, not just enquiries.

Nowdesk sends cohort availability updates based on actual seat data from your enrolment system — genuine scarcity messaging rather than manufactured urgency. When cohorts are genuinely filling, prospects who haven't completed their application receive a timely, factual update about remaining seats, which creates natural motivation to complete enrolment.

Yes. Conversation flows, enrolment sequences, and post-graduation engagement can be configured separately for cohort-based and self-paced formats within the same Nowdesk account. Students receive messaging that is relevant to their programme format — cohort students get community and deadline messaging while self-paced learners receive personalised milestone nudges.

Each alumnus receives a unique tracked referral link that can be shared via WhatsApp or social media. When a prospect submits an enquiry through that link, the referral is automatically attributed and the referring alumnus is notified. Reward triggers — such as tuition credits or cash bonuses when a referral enrols — can be automated or routed to your team for manual processing.

Yes. Automated post-graduation check-in sequences sent via WhatsApp at 30, 90, and 180 days ask graduates about their employment status, employer, role, and starting salary. This data populates your outcome statistics automatically — giving you accurate, up-to-date placement rates and salary figures for admissions marketing without requiring manual alumni outreach.
