Why Brand your Preschool Dance Classes with Twinkle Star Dance Today

Why Brand your Preschool Dance Classes with Twinkle Star Dance Today

One of my favorite parts of my job is interacting with Dance Studio Owners and Teachers through our extended Twinkle Star Dance community. Looking ahead to the new year, I hear a lot of studio owners and teachers who haven’t implemented Twinkle Star Dance yet say, “I don’t think this would work for me right now since my classes are already running.”

I want to challenge the notion that you can only implement a curriculum at the start of a season.  Right now is a great time to subscribe to Twinkle Stars Dance and have immediate, 24/7 access to our trademarked curriculum and video-based teacher training system.

I’m guessing you, like most studios owners right now, are struggling with new teachers not attracting enough new students to fill up their classes; maybe you are facing the fact that your current marketing and branding is not attracting Millennial Moms; or maybe your pain is the result of a beloved teacher leaving mid-season and you need a more efficient way to train their replacement.   

These are all issues studio owners around the world struggle with. Tiffany likes to say, “It is not if, if it when.” Luckily, having a tried and true system in place like Twinkle Star Dance sets you up to deal with recurring obstacles studio owners face so you can handle problems thrown your way and reclaim your sanity.

It is normal to have feelings of reservation about making changes mid-season, but there are also huge benefits. Here are five reasons why you should subscribe to Twinkle Star Dance today:

  1. Build a Buzz
We talk a ton about how Word-of-Mouth Marketing is the best marketing for your dance studio and your classes. Introducing new classes to your schedule mid-season gets dancers and families buzzing about your dance studio and telling all of their friends. Even better, holding a free Twinkle Star Dance “Sparkle Day” event at the start of the year also helps encourage new dancers and families to check out your school.

  1. Attract your Target Student
A successful dance studio business is built on a strong foundation of recreational dancers. The 2-6 age group is the biggest pool of dancers that don’t already have a dance home, welcome them! With our Twinkle Star Dance branding and marketing graphics you capture the eye of Millennial Moms and get them buzzing about your classes.   

  1. Update your Menu
Pre-dance, Combo, Kinder Dance.. Wah wah. These dance class names might have worked in the past, but armed with smartphones consumers are changing at a rapid pace. The names of your classes have to elicit a feeling, a connection to parents and fulfill their idea of dance class.

  1. Train your Teachers Consistently
Trained teachers and limited teacher turnover are the key to a successful dance studio business. Having a preschool dance curriculum makes your teachers more well-rounded and also gives them the opportunity to have more teaching hours at your studio.  

  1. Protect your Business
Twinkle Star Dance is the only trademarked preschool dance curriculum proven in over 250 dance studios world-wide. A lesson plan doesn’t protect your business. Invest in our video-based teacher training system and trademarked curriculum to be protected.

5 Reasons to Attend a Live Event

5 Reasons to Attend a Live Event
Tiffany Henderson with Amanda Scott

Dance studio owners and teachers are givers. We give class, we give our time, we give knowledge, just to name a few. Sometimes I find myself mid-season with nothing more to give. This empty feeling is why I attend a live event at the beginning of the year to reignite my passion for teaching and running a successful dance studio business.  

Live events are inspiring, motivating, and empowering. The energy that comes from being surrounded by like-minded dance studio owners is contagious. Live Events rekindle my passion for my dance studio business and spark creativity and innovation.

Here are 5 reasons you should attend a Live Event:
  1. Educational Opportunities - The opportunity to learn something new is one of the biggest draws to attending a live event. While I love attending (and hosting) webinars, there are still some educational benefits you only get from a live, face-to-face setting. Live events give you the opportunity to watch and learn from visual cues, body language, and the overall atmosphere of growth.

  1. Networking and Friendship - Running a dance studio can sometimes feel like you are alone on an island. Attending live events with other dance studio owners and teachers forges connections with people who share your same passion for dance, teaching, working with kids, and being a #bosslady.

  1. Marketing Systems - The way we attract and connect with past, present, and future customers is constantly evolving. It’s crucial to the success of our business that we implement new marketing systems and strategies to continue to attract our target customers - the Millennial Mom. Live Events at the beginning of the year are a great opportunity to take a look at what marketing systems we have in place, hear about new strategies, and make necessary changes.

  1. Business Strategies - Running a successful dance studio business means you have systems in place for important aspects of your day-to-day operations like student registration, teacher training, customer service, and recital management. I love attending live events to hear what new systems are out there to make my studio run more efficiently and effectively.

  1. Mindset - More important than networking for growth and success in your business is your mindset. Interacting with highly motivated, encouraging, and inspiring dance studio owners and teachers sparks creativity and innovation. We all need to take a break from routine in order to stay at the top of our game. A change of scenery, especially one that is rich with educational and networking opportunities, can help you spark your creativity, develop new ideas and help you think in innovative ways.

If you invest the time and money to attend a live event for your dance studio business, you can guarantee that you will return home with new tools, valuable contacts, and a renewed approach that will help you manage and grow your dance studio.
