How to keep track of missing documents for a specific Prospect Student

Basically with all this mentioned procedures, when a prospect is unable to follow what they need to have at time of enrollment, this gives you red flags of a possible difficult student. at the end proper follow up on a prospect student helps you learn how to fisically read your good potetntials, and how they migth be as an active student.

How can you define a "Potential Lead" from a "Shop Around Lead"?

otally agree, in our institution we never do enrollment or force to a commitment on first basis is always done on 2nd to 3rd visit.

How can you define a "Potential Lead" from a "Shop Around Lead"?

Hi Carmen, for over 15 years we have survive based on free referral, student to friend, friend to friend, walk-ins, etc. As of today we have not make an appearance on TV or heard us in the radio. One of our procedures is that we never call a potential lead unless they need a follow for an incomplete process. Basically hour leads are totally free and most commonly are potential lead but you will always have a bad potato in a sack.

How can you define a "Potential Lead" from a "Shop Around Lead"?

Building up a conversation with your Potential Student is very important, it may raise up with questions like; How did you heard from us?, Are you from town? What is intresting for you about this field? since when you were planning to learn about this career and waht it offers? and many others. Suggestion: answer the same questions, this will create a dialog that will link you to opinions that helps with interaction and individual understanding, this will help you to turn a lead into a prospective student with the right fit.
