A student fills out your inquiry form—and then? Silence. But don’t be fooled. That silence isn’t disinterest. It’s the start of a new funnel most schools never see.

In this episode, Lila exposes the blind spots in post-inquiry behavior that traditional CRMs fail to capture—and how you can surface hidden intent signals before the student disappears for good.

Here’s what you’ll learn:
— Why most students don’t vanish after inquiring—they just fall into your system’s blind spot
— How to track post-inquiry engagement that reveals real intent
— What to change in your outreach when students are hovering—but not converting

If your funnel doesn’t account for what happens after the form, it’s not a real funnel—it’s a tracking illusion.

“Omnichannel” sounds impressive—until you try to actually track a student across five platforms, two form fills, and one broken attribution model. In this episode, we unpack the myth of seamless tracking and explains why most admissions teams are stuck with fragmented data that doesn’t tell the real story.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Why most omnichannel reporting breaks down before it even begins
• How first-party data gives you better visibility than any marketing dashboard
• What actionable steps to take when your platforms don’t sync

If your funnel feels more like a black box than a data pipeline, this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen now to learn how to ditch the myth and build a smarter admissions data strategy.

Admissions teams track everything—CRMs, marketing reports, financial aid data, application trends. But here’s the problem: most of it isn’t driving decisions.

Schools are flooded with data, but how much of it actually shapes strategy? How much of it is just taking up space in dashboards and reports?

In this episode, we break down:

• How to instantly tell if a data point is useful or just noise

• Why some of the most commonly tracked admissions metrics are a waste of time
• Where your most valuable underutilized data is hiding—and how to start using it

If your reports aren’t changing how you recruit and enroll students, you’re not doing analytics—you’re just collecting numbers.
