Simplified tech, enrollments that grow

Whether you’re filling classrooms, workshops, retreats or masterclasses, we help you attract, enroll, and teach more students
—without the stress of clunky tools or leaky funnels.

Skip the line

We get it. This isn’t easy.

You’re doing something incredible—helping people learn, grow, and thrive. But staying ahead in a fast-changing world comes with its challenges.

Your tech stack feels like a Frankenstein experiment. Your CRM, LMS, and marketing tools don’t talk to each other. Your website? Not exactly the enrollment magnet you hoped for. And tracking what’s working? It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack... blindfolded.

It’s frustrating. We get it. But the good news? You don’t have to do it alone.

Here’s how we fix it

Tech that actually works together

We make sure your tools—CRM, LMS, website, analytics—play nicely, so you can stop managing chaos and start managing growth.

Marketing that brings students in

From website fixes to automating your follow-ups, we help you attract, engage, and enroll students without doubling your workload.

Data that makes decisions easy

Our custom dashboards track your entire funnel—so you know exactly what’s working, where it’s leaking, and what to fix.

Custom platforms that grow with you

Whether it’s a tailored e-commerce solution or a web app built to support your unique business model, we design and build scalable systems that work seamlessly with your tech stack and enhance your user experience.

Why this feels so hard and is costing you students

Don’t worry, you’re not unique. We hear it all the time...

"Our website is clunky, and no one knows what to do next."

"We spend hours trying to move leads from one tool to another."

"We’re throwing money at ads, but we’re not even sure if they’re working."

"I feel like we’re losing students before they even enroll."

Our Process

Here’s how we help you get back on track

We’ve designed a simple, proven process to identify what’s holding you back, provide clarity with actionable insights, and deliver quick wins that drive results. Here’s how we work together:

1. Digital Presence Audit

Find the cracks in your funnel

We begin with a hands-on audit of your public-facing digital presence to uncover inefficiencies, missed opportunities, and untapped growth potential:

  • Website usability and UX review
  • Messaging and branding consistency
  • Conversion paths (forms, CTAs, etc.)
  • SEO performance and traffic analytics
  • Social media visibility and audience insights
Why it matters

This audit is your roadmap to understanding what’s working, what isn’t, and where to focus next.

Limited availability

We only take on 5 audits per month to give each client our full attention.

2. Funnel Tracking and System Analysis

See the Bigger Picture

Take it a step further with a detailed review of your internal tools and processes. We’ll create a custom funnel tracking dashboard that gives you a clear view of your marketing and enrollment performance.

What’s included:

  • Set up a dashboard to track your entire funnel
  • Review your CRM, LMS, and analytics tools to uncover hidden inefficiencies
  • Provide a prioritized plan to simplify your tech and grow enrollments
Why it matters

With real-time insights at your fingertips, you’ll be empowered to make informed decisions that drive measurable results.

3. Fast, High-Impact Solution

Quick win fix

We pick one big leak in your funnel and fix it fast. Think:

  • A landing page that actually converts.
  • An automated follow-up that saves your team hours.
  • A smoother user flow to stop drop-offs.
Why it matters

A single high-impact fix can transform your funnel and deliver immediate, measurable results.

If you don’t see measurable improvement in your selected funnel metric (e.g., sign-ups, enrollments, or retention) within 60 days, we’ll work with you at no extra cost until you do. No fluff. Just results you can see and measure.

Custom Enrollment & Onboarding web app

From manual processes to scalable enrollment

UX/UI Design
API Integration
Process Automation
CRM Integration

MEA’s hybrid education-retreat model faced challenges with outdated, manual processes that overwhelmed their team and guests. We created a custom web app to simplify enrollment, automate payments, and streamline onboarding. By integrating their property management system (MEWS) with HubSpot CRM, we provided real-time data synchronization and reduced the need for manual updates.

The impact
  • +150% Enrollment Growth: Monthly enrollments surged from 60 to 150 without increasing team size.
  • -80% Fewer Support Requests: Proactive integrations and streamlined workflows drastically reduced operational hurdles.
  • Empowered Team: Training and SOPs equipped MEA’s team to manage the system independently.This scalable solution improved guest satisfaction and gave MEA the foundation to handle future growth effortlessly.

CMS Development
Marketing Automation

Collaborating with What's Good, a marketing and systems design studio, Minds & Makers developed a system to manage Rivet School’s info sessions for referral partners. We created dynamic Webflow landing pages synced with Calendly for automated event updates and connected the system to Salesforce for seamless lead tracking and follow-ups.

The impact
  • 20 info sessions and 110 registrants in 4 months.
  • Estimated 17.5% conversion to applications based on historical trends.
  • Scalable solution enabling the small Partnerships Team to manage sessions effortlessly while focusing on student engagement.

Collaborating with What's Good Studio, a marketing and systems design studio, Minds & Makers built a custom PostHog dashboard for Future Forward Connecticut. The solution mapped their entire marketing and sales funnel, integrated website and HubSpot data, and uncovered actionable insights to optimize website UX/UI and improve lead conversion.

The impact
  • Clear Metrics: Provided visibility into every stage of the funnel.
  • Actionable Priorities: Highlighted website improvements to reduce user hesitation.

Streamlined Admissions with Custom HubSpot Integration

Doubling applications and reducing workload

Custom Pipelines

MEA’s manual admissions process relied on spreadsheets and emails, leading to inefficiencies, missed follow-ups, and delayed payments. We implemented HubSpot pipelines and automation workflows to streamline applications, automate payment requests, and simplify onboarding. A custom frontend allowed applicants to submit forms directly into the system, while automated emails reduced repetitive tasks for the Admissions team.

The impact
  • 2x Applications: Applications doubled in the first year.
  • 1 FTE Workload Saved: Automation reduced the need for a full Admissions team member.
  • 7x Enrollment Growth: Since implementation, MEA scaled enrollments from 190 to nearly 1,500 per year.

This solution provided MEA with the efficiency and scalability needed to grow without increasing their team size.
