Finding The Joy In Studio Ownership And Paying It Forward To Your Customers

Welcome to our brand new Podcast Series, Elevate Your Dance Studio: Finding The Joy In Dance Studio Ownership with Angela and Jodi.

Over the next 8 weeks we will be exploring studio ownership with two dance studio owners – just like you – who have experienced the highs, lows, and in-betweens throughout their journey in business.

In This Week’s Episode

Today is all about pursuing ‘WOW’ in your dance studio, and delivering an exceptional customer experience to your dance families.

Not only will a conscious effort towards customer service excellence improve your retention rates (and we know it costs 7x more to acquire new students than it does to retain existing ones), but it will also ensure that your ideal customers are the ones who are referring and recommending your services year-round.

Jodi and Angela dive into:

  • The definition of Customer Experience, and specifically how this applies in the dance studio environment
  • Putting yourself into your customer’s shoes to get a fresh perspective on your studio, and where things may be falling through the cracks when it comes to efficiency and consistency
  • Mapping your customer journey, and auditing the relationship your customers have with your brand
  • Simple and proven tips that you can implement in your studio to increase your ‘WOW’ impact

Angela and Jodi also share their advice for prioritising your customer experience strategies as well as factoring them into your budget.
