Admission enquiries die in a queue

The institute spends lakhs on ads. The lead taps "Send Message". And then a counselor calls back four hours later, when the parent has already enrolled their child somewhere else.

Slow follow-up loses leads

The first institute to reach a parent usually wins. Manual callbacks cannot match a same-minute WhatsApp message.

📢

Batch announcements via email get ignored

Parents do not check email. They open WhatsApp. Sending exam, schedule, and holiday updates over WhatsApp reaches them in minutes, not days.

💲

Fee reminders are a nightmare

Front-desk staff burn hours every month chasing fee dues. Templated reminders sent to a fee-due segment do this in one click.

💬

Counselor team has no shared view

Multiple counselors juggling a personal WhatsApp number leads to duplicate replies, missed enquiries, and no visibility for the academic director.

Built for how institutes actually run

The same dripBot platform, framed for admission funnels, batch operations, and counselor teams.

Click-to-WhatsApp ads to instant counselor response

Capture every admission enquiry from Meta Ads, Google Ads, your website, or referrals into one inbox. Tag by campaign, course, and batch automatically. A counselor sees the new lead in seconds - the conversation can be started before the parent even sets the phone down.

Funnel for JEE 2026 batch - source: Meta Ads

A 7-day enquiry drip that runs while you teach

The moment a parent enquires, dripBot kicks off a personalized sequence: welcome + course info on day 0, demo class invite on day 1, fee structure on day 3, social proof on day 5, last-call reminder on day 7. Counselors only handle the warm replies.

  • Visual flow builder, no developer needed
  • Branch on parent replies (interested / call later / not interested)
  • Pause sequence the moment a counselor replies manually

What institutes use dripBot for

Common workflows that institutes set up in their first week on dripBot.

🎓

Admission enquiry follow-up

Capture leads from ads or your website. A 7-day drip nurtures them while counselors focus on the warmest enquiries.

💲

Fee due reminders

Templated reminders to a fee-due segment, scheduled monthly. Front-desk hours saved, fewer late payments.

📚

Exam + class announcements

"Physics class rescheduled to Saturday" or "Mock test on 12 Nov" to the exact batch in two minutes.

👨‍🏫

Counselor team inbox

Every counselor sees every enquiry. Assign by language, course, or campaign. No more lost leads on a personal phone.

📱

Demo + trial class booking

Send a slot picker template after enquiry. The parent taps a time, you confirm, the calendar entry goes out.

💬

Doubt-solving + alumni groups

Send daily doubt-of-the-day, alumni placement updates, or exam tips to engaged segments. Keep students in the funnel after enrollment.

Education + coaching questions

How do we capture admission enquiries from Facebook or Google ads into WhatsApp?
+
Use a click-to-WhatsApp ad or a landing form that pushes leads to the dripBot API. Each new enquiry becomes a contact, gets tagged with the campaign source, and can auto-enroll into a follow-up drip flow within seconds. Counselors see the new lead in the shared inbox in real time.
Can we send fee reminders only to specific batches or classes?
+
Yes. Tag each contact with their batch, class, or admission year. Send a campaign to a tag-based segment, or trigger a drip flow when a fee-due tag is added (e.g. by your fee management system pushing a tag via API). Recipients outside the segment are never messaged.
How do we share class schedules, exam updates, or holiday announcements?
+
Build a Meta-approved template once ("Your physics class on {{date}} has been rescheduled to {{newTime}}") and send it as a campaign to the relevant batch segment. Delivery and read rates flow back in real time so you can confirm parents got the message.
Can multiple counselors share one WhatsApp number to handle enquiries?
+
Yes. The shared team inbox lets every counselor see every conversation, with assignment, internal notes, and a "viewing now" indicator to prevent two counselors replying at the same time. Assignment rules can route by language, batch, or campaign.
Is dripBot compliant with student data and DPDP regulations?
+
dripBot stores all data on servers in India, encrypts credentials with AES-256-GCM, and complies with India's DPDP Act 2023. You are the data controller for student / parent data you upload; dripBot processes it on your behalf with full audit trails and per-tenant isolation.
