How AI Can Answer Every Lead

Imagine this: A student clicks your ad, fills out a form, or sends a DM. Before they can even close the browser, they get a warm, helpful message from your team answering their question and offering to book a call. No waiting. No confusion. No lost momentum.
 
 
That’s the zero-second response—and it's changing the admissions game.

The Problem: The “Black Hole” in Admissions
In traditional admissions workflows, it can take hours (or even days) to follow up on a lead. Maybe it’s after business hours. Maybe your CRM is overloaded. Maybe your team is just busy.

But prospective students don’t wait.


Studies show that 78% of students choose the first school that responds to them. And if you’re not the first? You might not get a second chance.

Enter Cory: Your Instant AI Admissions Assistant
Cory is an AI assistant built specifically for college admissions. And it doesn’t just respond quickly—it responds instantly.

Here’s how it works:

  • Zero-second response on every channel: Cory replies instantly via SMS, phone call, email, web chat, or even social DM.

  • Smart qualification: Cory asks key questions to gauge the student’s interest, program fit, and intent level.

  • Real-time booking: If the student’s ready, Cory schedules a meeting or tour right on your admissions calendar.

This all happens 24/7—whether it’s Monday morning or Sunday night at 2 a.m.


Why This Matters
Speed = Enrolment

According to Harvard Business Review, leads contacted within 5 minutes are:

  • 100× more likely to connect
  • 21× more likely to convert
Cory ensures you're not just fast—you’re first.

Lower Cost, Higher Conversions

Traditional automation stacks (Zapier + Calendly + SMS + CRM + human call center) are expensive and disjointed. Cory replaces them with an intelligent agent that handles the full journey—from inquiry to meeting—at a fraction of the cost.

No More Dropped Leads
Even your best counsellor can’t respond instantly every time. Cory can. That means fewer missed inquiries, fewer manual follow-ups, and a smoother student experience.


How It Works: The Inbound Flow
Here’s what happens when a lead reaches out:

  1. Lead Inquires (form, call, text, chat, email)

  2. Cory Responds Instantly with a helpful message

  3. Cory Qualifies: “What program are you interested in?” “Are you looking to enroll this year?”

  4. Cory Books: Schedules a call or sends a program guide

  5. Your Team Joins only once the lead is warm and ready

Cory even syncs with your CRM and comms tools, so your team sees everything without lifting a finger.

Try Talking to Cory

Scenario: Imagine you're a prospective student who just filled out a form about the Business Analytics program at Westbridge Tech University. It's 10:30 PM on a weeknight — and instead of waiting until tomorrow, you get an instant call back.


In this demo, Cory will play the role of an admissions assistant from the school, just like she would with a real inquiry. You're about to hear how fast, friendly, and helpful she can be — even in the middle of the night.


Try saying things like:

  • “Hi, I just requested info — are you really calling me this late?”
  • “I wasn’t expecting a call… can you tell me about the program?”
  • “What happens next if I’m interested?”
  • “Is this a real person or AI?”

Just enter your name, email, and phone number—and Cory will give you a call within seconds to start the conversation. From there, she'll guide you through a real-time demo and schedule your meeting.


This isn’t a form submission. It’s a live test of how fast and effective AI admissions can be.
