Marketing Tip: Follow-up

Follow-up is a vital part of the enrollment building process. In fact, I have discovered that when I follow-up with parents who visit or call my Child Care Center the following happens:

  • That parent expresses appreciation for my phone call
  • The parent is inspired to visit my program again or schedule a Trial Day for his or her child
  • My chances of enrolling the child increases
  • I build rapport with the parent with friendly conversation

Many parents are very busy and they really do appreciate it when you take the extra step to call them back.

As you can see, follow-up is a vital part of building enrollment and sometimes taking the step to follow-up with the family, just may lead to a new enrollment.

*Never assume that if a parent does not call you back, that he or she is not interested in your program.

It’s time to create your follow-up Plan! You can start by simply planning to follow-up with a parent that has recently called or visited your program.

  An Inspirational Marketing Quote

In today’s market, more and more professional salespeople are practicing aggressive,
thorough follow-up methods that even a
few years ago would have been considered unnecessary on some of their marginal inquiries,
that is, people don’t represent a sale.
If your desire is to compete with the big boys and girls,
you must make follow-up an important part of your regular selling routine.

The Business Skill That You Must Makeover In 2014

Child Care Business Owner Makeover Series
Business Makeover Tip #7:
It Is Vital That You Makeover Your Leadership Skills in 2014
Leadership Ability Determines a Persons Level of Effectiveness. ~John Maxwell

Every Child Care  Business Owner has one thing in common: We all want successful Businesses! So with that in mind, It is also important for you to be aware of the simple fact that Success never happens by accident and there are many factors that contribute to your success as a Child Care Business owner.

The #1 factor is your ability to Lead! ” Personal success without Leadership ability brings only limited effectiveness. Without leadership ability, a person’s impact is only a fraction of what it could be with good leadership. What is Leadership? Leadership is simply influence…nothing more and nothing less.

Think about this: How much influence do you have with the parents in your daycare? Do you have influence with your employees or the children? How has your influence impacted your relationship with your parents, employee, community or the children?
