In short

How do I announce new courses as soon as registration opens?

WebRun checks CourseStorm every Monday for courses opening registration that week, drafts a matching launch announcement in Mailchimp for the right interest segment, and logs the queue in a Google Sheet. Your team reviews and sends each draft, so every new course gets a timely announcement without anyone drafting the email by hand.

  • Every course that opens for registration gets a draft announcement the same week
  • Announcements are pre-matched to the right interest segment, not blasted to everyone
  • Nothing sends without your team's review and approval

Built for community education marketing staff · adult ed program coordinators · continuing education directors · parks and rec program managers

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email my list without me reviewing it first?

No. WebRun only saves the announcement as a draft campaign in Mailchimp. Nothing schedules or sends until someone on your team reviews it and hits send.

How does it pick who gets the announcement?

It matches each course to the closest interest segment in your Mailchimp audience, based on the course category, so a pottery class doesn't go to your tech-skills list.

What happens to a course with no matching segment?

It's flagged in the Google Sheet for manual review instead of guessing, so you decide the audience yourself before a draft goes out.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
