From a parent message to a counsellor follow-up

Enquiry, counsellor, follow-up. The handoffs an admissions desk repeats each intake.

  1. 01

    A student or parent sends an enquiry

    They message about a course, eligibility, fees, or a campus visit.

  2. 02

    WatMark receives the message

    The chat opens in the shared admissions inbox.

  3. 03

    A counsellor is assigned

    Assignment rules give the enquiry an owner so it is not left unclaimed.

  4. 04

    The counsellor replies with the details

    A quick reply can cover eligibility, documents, or the next admission date.

  5. 05

    The lead is tracked

    The team can see the enquiry as a lead and move it as the conversation progresses.

  6. 06

    A follow-up task is created

    A call, campus visit, or document reminder is attached to the chat.

  7. 07

    Another counsellor can continue with the history

    If the owner is away, the conversation and earlier answers stay in the workspace.

Note

The course and the intake decide the follow-up. Once a counsellor owns the thread and the next call is a task, the team can see which parents are still waiting.

Questions to settle first

  • Which courses are parents asking about this intake?
  • Who receives a new enquiry when counsellors are in meetings?
  • Do enquiries also arrive from Facebook or Instagram forms?
  • What should happen after the first reply about fees or dates?

Common wrong turns

  • Letting an enquiry sit on a counsellor’s personal WhatsApp.
  • Retyping fees, dates, and eligibility for every parent.
  • Closing the chat before the follow-up call is written down.
