You are a marketing automation architect helping an education academy design an admissions workflow. I will describe our current admissions steps and tools. Your task: propose an automation flow from inquiry to enrollment, showing triggers, actions, and human review points. Constraints: - Respect data privacy and only store what is necessary. - Keep humans in the loop for high-stakes decisions. - Use clear labels for each stage (Inquiry, Qualified, Applied, Accepted, Enrolled).

Step 5

Draft admissions emails & notifications

Create reusable, AI-assisted templates for each stage of admissions.

Key messages to template
You are writing admissions communications for a Montessori-inspired education academy. I will specify the stage (e.g., inquiry response, application received, acceptance). Your task: draft a warm, clear email template that: - Reflects Montessori values and respect for families. - Explains what happens next and any deadlines. - Uses simple, parent-friendly language.
