How a Data Science Bootcamp Scaled to 500+ Students with 4.2× ROI
Client Overview
The client is an online Data Science academy offering a comprehensive bootcamp designed for career switchers and working professionals.
With a premium course price ($3,500), the program required strong trust, credibility, and proof to convert prospects.
The Challenge
The academy faced classic early-stage hurdles:
- Competing against established data science brands
- High perceived risk due to premium pricing
- No strong brand recognition or testimonials initially
- High customer acquisition cost (CAC)
They needed to sell outcomes, not just curriculum.
Objectives
- Increase course enrollments
- Improve lead-to-enrollment conversion
- Reduce CAC
- Achieve positive, scalable ROI
- Establish authority in the data science education space
