Ultima.school based a sales funnel on the interaction between website visitors submitting inquiries and pre-sales managers scheduling consultations with career experts. However, this workflow significantly increased acquisition costs.
Ultima.school collaborated with Chatfuel to investigate the potential of using a ChatGPT WhatsApp chatbot to reduce their high customer acquisition costs. As a result, Chatfuel designed a chatbot that acts like a human pre-sales manager.Upon realizing the potential of this approach, Ultima.school began exploring various other use cases like re-engagement, lead qualification, and upselling opportunities on WhatsApp.
The updated sales funnel enabled Ultima.school to double reduce customer acquisition costs and keep the end-to-end conversion to purchase same as with a pre-sales manager. Besides that, Ultima.school now discovers re-engagement messages and sends them to customers who have submitted inquiries on the website. This strategy aims to initiate promotions and improve sales.
