What is the Quiz Submitted Trigger?

The Quiz Submitted trigger starts an automation the moment someone completes and submits a published quiz in Enrollio. This trigger helps childcare centers streamline communication and automatically respond based on quiz results.

When you add this trigger to an automation, families are enrolled into your workflow instantly after their quiz data is recorded. This means you can send timely follow-ups, segment prospects, and create personalized enrollment journeys without any manual work.

Key Benefits

The Quiz Submitted trigger helps you respond quickly and consistently whenever someone completes a quiz:

  • Real-Time Engagement: Respond the second a family submits their quiz, while your center is top of mind
  • Advanced Filters: Target specific audiences by filtering on quiz name, scores, or custom fields
  • Custom Actions: Send personalized emails or text messages, update enrollment records, or assign follow-up tasks based on quiz results
  • Operational Efficiency: Skip the manual exports and spreadsheets—quiz results flow directly into your automations
  • Scalable Automations: Combine with conditional steps, wait times, and IF/ELSE logic to build sophisticated enrollment nurture sequences

Filter Options

Filters control exactly when your trigger fires, giving you precise control over which quiz submissions activate an automation. You can configure conditions such as quiz name, score thresholds, or custom fields to target specific families.

Here are the filter types available:

  • Quiz Name: Select a specific quiz, use "Any" to include all quizzes, or use "Is Not" to exclude specific quizzes
  • Overall Score: Create rules like "is greater than 80" or "between 50 and 70" to segment by total score
  • Category Score: Target families who scored high (or low) in a particular section of your quiz
  • Custom Field: Reference custom score fields you created when designing your quiz

Use Case Examples

Here are some practical ways childcare centers use the Quiz Submitted trigger:

Personalized Enrollment Guidance

Automatically send follow-up emails to families based on their quiz responses. For example, if parents indicate they need infant care, send them information specific to your infant program.

Lead Scoring and Prioritization

Segment quiz takers based on their scores and update their enrollment records accordingly. High-scoring prospects who show strong interest can be tagged as "hot leads" for immediate follow-up.

Program Recommendations

Suggest relevant programs, services, or enrollment options based on quiz responses. If a family indicates interest in extended hours, automatically send them your extended care information.

Automated Staff Follow-Ups

Assign high-interest prospects to your enrollment team for personalized outreach. The right staff member can follow up while the family is still engaged.

Tour Scheduling Prompts

Send a tour invitation automatically when families complete an interest quiz with scores above a certain threshold.
