What are Automations?

LearnWorlds’ Automations is a tool designed to work in the background of your school, enhancing your personalized communication workflows. By selecting triggers, actions and conditions, you enable the platform to perform actions and communications with your learners automatically and on the right timing.

πŸ’ For instance, through Automations you can send an email when users complete a course, offering them a coupon to other educational products. Or add a tag every time users enroll in a specific course and offer them personalized website navigation. With ready-made templates and customizable triggers and conditions, you can communicate on the spot.

The New Marketing Automations

To help you build smoother workflows and more effective marketing strategies, we’ve added new triggers and actions to our set of automations. You can now fire events as new actions to Google Tag Manager, Meta and Mixpanel.

“Firing an event” to marketing tools like Google Tag Manager, Meta, and Mixpanel means sending a signal or piece of data to these platforms when a specific action occurs in your school. This action, known as an event, could be anything from a page view, button click, form submission, or any user interaction that you want to track.

At LearnWorlds, we are firm believers of the saying “What you can’t measure, you can’t manage.” So, getting the right data from your school will help you optimize your ad campaigns, understand your leads and learners behavior better and make actionable decisions.

Enable your integrations

Before setting up your automations, make sure to enable the integrations with the analytics tools.

Take Advantage of Top-Notch Marketing Tools

LearnWorlds is one step ahead of the competition, bringing built-in automations to help you achieve better results without the need for coding skills and complex setups.

As we understand the importance of leveraging advanced marketing tools to stay competitive, our Marketing Automations integrate seamlessly with industry-leading platforms, ensuring you have the best tools at your disposal.

Integration with Google Tag Manager

Google Tag Manager (GTM) is crucial for any marketing strategy because it makes adding and managing tracking codes on your website easy. This means you can set up and change your marketing tags faster, which helps your website run better and gives you more accurate data about users’ behavior.

With GTM, you can quickly update and improve your marketing efforts based on real-time information, ensuring your ad campaigns always perform at their best.

When an event is fired to GTM, it triggers the appropriate tags (pieces of code) that you have set up. For example, when a user submits a form, GTM can fire an event to track this submission and send the data to Google Analytics for reporting and Google campaign optimization purposes.

Leveraging Meta

With many changes happening in the marketing space during the past years (e.g., ad blockers and cookies), attributing your results to the right performance campaigns is getting less effective and your marketing tools have less data to work with. That might be why your Meta campaigns are more expensive than they used to be.

Connecting your LearnWorlds pages with Meta (formerly Facebook) lets you track user interactions and optimize your advertising campaigns. You can ensure your ads reach the most relevant audience by firing the right events.

Connection with Mixpanel

Mixpanel is a powerful analytics tool that provides insights into user behavior and product (your academy) usage. The tool deeply interprets product data, helping you understand user behavior and improve learning & navigation paths.

Understanding how students interact with courses and materials and how they navigate your school is vital for educational institutions and knowledge businesses. Integrating Mixpanel with LearnWorlds enables you to make data-driven decisions and enhance your educational offerings.
