Grow your online education business with autonomous marketing
ActiveCampaign's autonomous marketing platform attracts students, keeps them engaged, and grows your revenue—while you focus on teaching.
Built for online educators & course providers
See how we’ve helped thousands of education businesses run more impactful email, SMS, and WhatsApp campaigns.
It used to take me a week to do one email. Now, with AI, it’s three emails a week. The AI tools are my creative partners. Clicking that button helps me go from hesitation to inspiration.- We could not have expanded from 1 to 18 language markets or grown our customer base that well with any other provider on the market, to be honest.
I’ve been with MentorShow from the beginning so I’ve seen it all. We’re always looking to have the best tools on the market, and with ActiveCampaign there’s nothing better.
