How to build email campaigns that get students signing up


1. Reach out to interested students within 24 hours using Maven automated emails
2. Get interested students to book a call with you

3. Add testimonials and student success stories to show social proof
- Here is an email example from Demand Curve which features a strong testimonial from a student who drastically grew his social following:

- In this email, Danielle Leslie shows screenshots of her happy customers. If you see students sharing their wins publicly, you should save them for future marketing content.

- Here's another example from Taylor Davidson's dropped off campaign. Taylor not only shares testimonials and ratings, but also encourages the dropped off student to reply back to him. This is an effective way to engage with your interested students and answer their questions.

4. Share your course outcomes
