13 Ways To Build Your Businesses
Tools To Upsell, Refer, Promote & Grow
1. Build Non-Accredited Courses Fast
Example: A Fitness Training Provider has developed a large range of non-accredited short courses (1-3 exams in 1 unit) offered as inexpensive auto assessed units with auto enrolment and payment, no USI or AVETMISS needs and zero human intervention (other than certificate issuance). The content is derived from aspects of its accredited training courses and is offered automatically as ‘Free’ to accredited course students as an upsell and also to the public, with reduced price offers into accredited courses on completion. The result is income from the public course and effectively ‘free’ marketing into accredited courses, a win on both sides.
2. Run Multiple RTO's
For owners of multiple training businesses, Vasto offers multi portal access and group consolidated pricing. Packages are based on number of administrators across your portals and annualised total student enrolments.

Vasto vouchers can be used for existing and new students. You can apply vouchers by email, Vasto messager, on your website (attached to graphics), in your Enews campaigns, inside course completion fields, after completion and more. Voucher options include:
