Understanding industry trends helps you understand what competitors and other centers in the industry are doing to be successful. In this guide, we outline current industry trends, challenges,

Data and Benchmarking

Benchmarking means comparing your center’s business processes and performance metrics to other centers in the industry. In our free guide, you’ll see the recommended percentages your costs should be compared to your revenue. We also outline the most important questions to ask yourself when operating your business along with profitability levers to boost revenue.

Profitability Levers 

There are a number of ways to increase revenue at your center that you might not have thought of. Adding different programs, offering expanded hours, and reducing discounts are just a few of the ways we’ve seen centers boost profitability. 

Key Success Metrics

Key success metrics are how you monitor your center’s growth and performance. By measuring revenue, tuition, staffing costs, and more, you’ll get a clearer picture of what’s working and what’s not at any given point.
