Should your studio change software?

4 reasons why it’s time to switch dance studio software

Figuring out the dance studio software that’s right for your studio isn’t as hard as you think. 

Figuring out your current platform isn’t the best solution for your studio can be even more obvious”. If you can identify with any of the following points, it’s probably time to switch your dance studio’s software. 

4 reasons why it’s time to switch dance studio software

Your software doesn’t make parent communication easy

An effective communication strategy with parents should include clear and transparent messaging,. Make sure customers have a solid understanding of what your expectations are of them. 

Whether you need to share time-sensitive class information, notify all dancers of policy changes or just check in to see if your customers are happy- your dance studio software should offer easy ways to craft the perfect text, email or Parent Portal login message to get the job done. 

Your studio’s software difficult for customers to use

Dance studio software makes growing your studio easier. How? By giving your customers the ability to complete certain tasks, such as make contactless tuition payments, enroll for classes online, agree to updated policies, schedule upcoming absences and makeup classes, and so much more. So why would you continue to use a platform that doesn’t allow you or your customers to interact with your studio the way they need to?

If you receive more calls from parents asking where they can find their virtual class link, you may need to switch dance studio software. 

If you spend way too much time tracking down tuition payments because cards are expired, you may need to switch dance studio software. 

If you are constantly running out of tights in your studio’s store because inventory is off, you may need to switch dance studio software. 

It’s no surprise that the happier your customers are, the happier you’ll be. So do yourself a favor. Switch to a studio management system that has a client and customer-endorsed Parent Portal.

Your dance software doesn’t have costume and recital management modules

Have you ever tried organizing your studio’s recital lineup using paper and pencil? How many erasers did you go through during the process? 

If there’s ever an instance when your dance studio software should be saving you time, it’s when planning for performances. Yep, I mean everything from what your dancers will wear to when they’ll be on stage. 

With the right software, you’ll be able to ensure that you’ve ordered the right size costumes for little Sally Smith and that she has enough numbers between performances to change from one into the other. 

Your dance studio software doesn’t allow you to manage your team

Managing instructors and staff is likely one of the most time-consuming tasks you face. From accessing teacher schedules, tracking payroll, and keeping a clear line of communication for everyone- you’ve got a lot on your plate. 

Let me ask you a question. Does your current platform offer time-saving solutions for all the ways you need to manage your team? If your dance studio software is only really good at one thing and not all of the things, then what’s the point?
