Hi,
I run an offline JEE coaching institute in my hometown and now ventured into this online testing platform www.testseries.co where users can take various mock tests.
A little introduction about Testseries.co
Testseries.co helps students to prepare for exams like JEE Main, Advanced, BITSAT, NEET and even CBSE students from class 6th to class 12th can take exams on the platform.
Why it is required?
Currently most of the exams are going for the online mode, scrapping the offline exams totally. JEE Main has already started the online exams and BITSAT has been doing it for a while and all the banking exams are already in the online mode. Also, there are plans of making engineering exams totally online in the coming one or two years.
What do we bring to the table?
Testseries.co wants to help students to get familiarize with the pattern and toughness of the exams. Students can analyse their performance after every week and compare it with other through the all India tests. Questions on our platform are created by a group of IIT Kharagpur graduates who are vastly experienced in their domain and we have sought help from highly experienced faculties from the medical field. Currently we have more than 50,000 questions on the platform and we are gradually increasing the number of questions on a daily basis.
We offer both Chapterwise Tests and Full Tests for the students.
Some of the analysis that a student can have on our portal are:
- Month wise Test Analysis
- Week Wise Test Analysis
- Subject Wise Preparation Analysis
- Difficulty Level Analysis
- Question wise Time spent analysis
- Chapterwise preparation analysis
- Comparision of your performance with toppers
Pricing :
We are currently trying the freemium model in which there are free tests available for the new users who sign up and if they like the platform after using it they can opt for Premium level access.
If you want to buy any package like JEE Main, Advanced, BITSAT individually it will cost you Rs 1999 and if you want to buy combined package of JEE Main+Advanced+BITSAT it will cost you Rs 2999.
We are offering two coupon codes :
LAUNCH : Rs 1500 OFF on any package

We are also in process of getting Banking questions on the website as soon as possible.
I would like to ask certain questions for people who are operating something similar or an ecommerce portal.
1. What was your average customer acquisition cost?
2. I tried some Adwords and around 25% users who are clicking are becoming users. Average acquisition cost of an user is quite high currently, it’s around Rs 40 per user. Other methods have resulted better results. I am also going to try Facebook marketing soon. How to make them our premium customer?
3. Should I try for press release?
4. We got covered in our local newspapers out here, but after checking some competitors I feel we need to go national. Should we try hiring a small PR firm to get news on big news websites? And what’s the cost for such stuff? And whether that is the right way to go about it?
