From Enquiries to Enrollments: Driving 2X Admissions Growth in Education Sales

One of India’s leading private universities, despite strong brand presence and marketing spend, was struggling to convert enquiries into enrollments. The Admissions Head shared it bluntly:

"We get thousands of leads every admission season, but only a fraction converts. Parents are fee-sensitive, students compare multiple institutes, and our counsellors lack consistency in handling objections. We don’t just need more leads, we need smarter conversions and stronger relationships."

This is exactly where Dishah Consultants partnered with the institution deploying tailored admission sales frameworks, counsellor coaching, and parent–student engagement strategies to deliver measurable results.

Education Sales Training - The Scale of Engagement

The client is one of India’s most respected educational institutions with multiple campuses, thousands of admissions annually, and programs spanning engineering, management, law, and healthcare.

➡️ 200+ admission counsellors & sales staff trained across campuses

➡️ 8+ custom-designed training workshops for counsellors, faculty, and enrollment teams

➡️ 7+ cities covered across India with both metro and regional campuses

➡️ Dedicated senior consultants deployed for admissions strategy and execution

From the Sales Head’s perspective, here were the real challenges and how we solved them.

Challenge Reported (KPI)	Dishah's Solution	Result Delivered
1. Low enquiry-to-admission conversion ratio	Consultative counselling framework, student motivation mapping, structured probing to align programs with goals	30 - 35% increase in enquiry-to-admission conversions
2. High drop-offs after counselling sessions or campus visits	Objection handling playbooks (fees, placement, location), role plays with real student/parent concerns	25% reduction in post-counselling drop-offs
3. Low average fee realisation (students choosing only basic/short courses)	Upselling & cross-selling strategies, value articulation for premium programs and certifications	20% increase in average fee per student
4. Handling dissatisfied parents/students leading to negative word-of-mouth	Conflict management training, empathy-driven communication, structured complaint resolution framework	15 - 20% improvement in student/parent satisfaction scores (CSAT/NPS)
5. Weak follow-ups with prospective students post-enquiry	Pipeline management frameworks, WhatsApp/email call scripts, follow-up cadences	2X increase in follow-up completions, stronger enquiry pipeline
