CASE STUDY
Is it possible that …..
- 1 in 4 of your target families don’t even know that you exist?
- A friendly welcome is the single most effective tool in encouraging repeat visits?
- 63% of parents never use your centre as they have no idea what happens there?
- Most target parents don’t even bother to glance at your brochure?
This is a mere glimpse into the research findings for a Bradford Children’s Centre that was determined to understand parental attitudes to the Centre and acquire guidance on how to market its services more effectively to increase visitor numbers.
Within 3 months of conducting independent research and launching the recommended strategies based on findings, the Centre now reports:-
~ Oversubscribed courses for the first time ever with waiting lists for future dates.
~ Increased attendance at the centre by over 35%, most significantly, mainly from the most deprived areas and hard to reach families.
“A big thank you for your recent work, it is already making a difference to us and the families we serve. You were worth every penny!”
