Who this Pack is for
This Pack can be used by any type of institution looking to reach high school students at the beginning of their college search.
What you can customize
You can specify the intended entry term(s) for sophomores and juniors. You can also specify the landing page URL for message recipients (such as a link to a visit day registration).
Additionally, emails are pre-built with content suggestions. Once the Pack is installed you can further customize the language in the included emails. Your brand assets such as logos, fonts, colors are included in the installed components. Like all Pack components, we strongly recommend reviewing any materials before activating a workflow.

Reviewing the Workflow and Email/SMS Messages
Before activating the campaign you should review all the included components in this Pack. You can see a list of these after installing the Pack.
Email Components
The emails included with this campaign come with suggested pre-written content to address topics of interest for prospective students such as financial aid opportunities, the return on investment of a college degree, and the campus community.
These messages include the following tokens:
[user:first_name, fallback="there"]
Displays the user's first name with a fallback option in the event it isn't in the system (unlikely).
[client:name]
Displays your institution's name as specified in your Pack tokens.
Keep an eye out for the highlighted areas in each of these emails with suggestions for additional content to add, such as popular local hangout spots or noteworthy alumni.
You can access your email/SMS components under Engagement > Campaigns > Ongoing Communications.
Workflow Components
The installed workflow is available under Data + Automations > Workflows > All Workflows.
The workflow sends a series of emails addressing various topics about academics and student life at your institution. Each message encourages recipients to click the CTA button included in the email.
Make sure to review every message in the campaign and the message personalization options for each email. Learn more about dynamic content and personalization.
Before activating the campaign, check the delay in between steps to confirm the campaign will run at your desired message frequency.
