Recruitment & admissions
Prospect and applicant pipelines, application statuses, and counselor workflows that admissions teams will use during peak season.

Salesforce Education Cloud
The learner journey is one story. Your systems tell five.
Education institutions recruit, advise, retain, and engage alumni across a maze of SIS, LMS, and CRM tools. Education Cloud is meant to connect that journey in Salesforce. We implement it so admissions, student success, and advancement share a learner record, with integrations that respect how registrars actually work.
POD pricing. A prepaid bucket of points redeemed for finished, deployed features, every one priced and approved before we build. First production release in week one.
Sound familiar?
Recruitment has a CRM. Student success has a spreadsheet.
Prospects become students and the record breaks.
Admissions data doesn't survive handoff to advising.
Advisors live outside Salesforce.
Early alerts arrive late; interventions aren't tracked.
Advancement can't see the student journey.
Alumni engagement starts from a cold export.
SIS integration is a perennial project.
Nightly jobs fail quietly; staff trust neither system.
Every department bought its own tool.
The student answers the same questions on every form.
The build
Recruitment to alumni on one learner relationship.
Student success & advising

POD pricing
The only Education Cloud engagement where you pay per feature delivered.
You tell us the results you need: inquiry response time, handoff completeness, advisor adoption, SIS sync accuracy. Each one gets a point cost you approve before we build, and your prepaid bucket of points redeems for finished, deployed features over the term.
A ceiling, not a meter.
A set number of points for the term, decided before we start.
Every cost approved up front.
Features are pointed before we build. You approve every price.
No change orders. Ever.
New priority moves to the front. Nothing becomes an invoice.
FAQ
Straight answers.
Before the briefing.
Do you work with K-12, higher ed, or both?
Both. Data models and success processes differ; we scope to your learner populations and systems of record.
Can you integrate Banner / PeopleSoft / Workday Student?
Yes. SIS remains academic system of record in most architectures; Salesforce owns engagement and relationship process.
How do you handle FERPA and privacy?
Sharing design, portal auth, and documentation aligned to your privacy office requirements from the start.
We've seen Education Cloud projects stall for years. Why are you different?
POD pricing with every feature approved up front, week-one production releases, and sequencing by learner impact instead of boiling the ocean across every campus department.
What does it cost?
Launch Implementations are fixed-price scoped projects. Managed PODs run from $5k/month fractional coverage to enterprise scale. See the calculator →
Your next enrollment cycle shouldn't depend on a weekend export.
Bring us a handoff that breaks between admissions and advising. We'll show you what an Education Cloud POD ships in month one and put a priced delivery plan on paper.
