Parent Enquiry CRM System

Allow parents to enquire about enrolling their children in your centre directly from your own webpage.

Using the Infocare Parent enquiry CRM system, enquiries are automatically sent to Infocare where they can be managed at every stage of the process with automated emails, comprehensive reporting, statistics and versatile management of the entire process from enquiry, to tour, to registration, to wait listing, to automatic enrolment.

Clients with multiple centres can automatically assign leads to a central location, or to specific centres based on location.
