Outreach should fill the first rung, not sell the top one
Edtech · CoinsLive outreach strategyCoinsLive helps students and early professionals work out what to do next, then build something they can show. It has free learning dashboards, a free career roadmap reviewed by a mentor, low-priced live workshops, a selective cohort program and a workplace-readiness series for colleges.
The products were there. The gap was the top of the funnel. Every paid offer sells from the free roadmap and the campus sessions, so outreach has one job: keep those two full. A roadmap request is a student telling you their goal and where they're stuck, and the mentor's reply is already the sales conversation.

How I'd run it
Colleges come first, because one session in one college puts CoinsLive in front of a whole final-year batch at once. Selling workshop seats one at a time can't match that. Students come second, and most of them are reached through the colleges, clubs and alumni who already have their attention. The pitch goes to the people whose scorecard is placements, and the timing follows the academic calendar, not the marketing calendar.
Every message leads with a mentor and what they've done, because the faculty's track record is the strongest proof the brand has. The first touch is always free or small. Targets start as guesses and get reset after a month of real data, and a channel that brings nothing in four weeks gets cut.
This is a strategy I wrote for CoinsLive in October 2026. It hasn't been run yet, so there are no results to show, and the execution detail stays with me. If you're running an edtech with good products and a thin funnel, tell me where people drop off.
