What is Walled Garden Mode?
Walled Garden Mode is a powerful data capture feature in Prospectus Plus that ensures users sign up before accessing their final personalised prospectus. This helps institutions gather valuable prospect data while maintaining a seamless user experience.
Strategic Data Capture – Require users to provide their details before accessing their final prospectus.
Flexible Placement – Institutions can choose where in the journey this sign-up step appears, with the most effective placement being after personalisation questions but before the final prospectus overview.
Improved Engagement – Capturing data at the right moment ensures that institutions can follow up with prospects more effectively.
Institutions using Walled Garden Mode see an average conversion rate of 40% of unique site visits into data capture. In contrast, institutions that allow optional account creation see a lead capture rate of less than 1%.
User Starts Their Journey – Prospects answer personalisation questions to tailor their prospectus.
Sign-Up Prompt – At a designated point (typically after personalisation), users are prompted to create an account.
Access Granted – Once registered, users gain access to their final personalised prospectus.
Data Utilisation – Institutions can use the collected data for targeted communication and follow-ups.
Walled Garden Mode helps institutions balance user experience with data capture, ensuring that prospects remain engaged while providing valuable information.
With Custom Registration Forms, institutions can take Walled Garden Mode further by defining exactly what data they collect. This feature enables a more refined and personalised approach to student engagement.
Tailored Data Collection – Universities can specify which fields are required, ensuring they gather the most relevant information.
Personalised Experience – By capturing specific data points, institutions can deliver more meaningful follow-ups tailored to each student's needs.
Enhanced Lead Management – A structured registration process leads to better-qualified prospects and improved outreach strategies.
Boosts Lead Generation – Capturing details early helps institutions stay connected with potential students.
Ensures High-Quality Engagement – Users who sign up are more likely to engage with the institution.
Customisable to Fit Your Strategy – Whether you want minimal barriers or detailed prospect profiling, Walled Garden Mode is flexible to your needs.
Will our staff have to complete the data capture form every time they access the prospectus? No! If you have an administrator account, logging in will automatically bypass the data capture form, making it hassle-free for internal use. Only front-end users (your prospects) will be required to complete this step.
Does Walled Garden Mode reduce user engagement? While some users may prefer immediate access, strategic placement ensures that data capture does not disrupt their journey, leading to higher-quality leads.
Can we customise what data we collect? Yes! With Custom Registration Forms, institutions can determine what information is required from prospects.
Can Walled Garden Mode be bypassed? No, once activated, users must complete the sign-up process before accessing their prospectus.
