About this webinar
Sponsored by HINGE Brokers.
This webinar is on THURSDAY, October 25th.
In a low unemployment environment, the impact on hiring quality staff is tremendous— especially in the childcare business where 55-percent of revenue is spent on staff and staff- related costs. Pricing strategies must be improved to strengthen an early learning business’ hiring ability. Wise spending means building effective strategies for hiring, onboarding and training strong teams as well as maximizing pay to teachers, supporting their efforts with continuing education and creating solid benefit programs. But, how are you supposed to achieve all of this?
Join HINGE Founder and financial guru Kathy Ligon alongside HINGE Staffing & Operations Consultant Kathe Petchel for this information-packed webinar discussing healthy spending methods for your childcare business and ways to provide quality education while being good stewards of tuition resources. This dynamic team will cover staffing tips and tricks from creative recruitment and hiring strategies to onboarding and team development tactics as well as best practices in increasing revenue by reducing discounts and improving tuition rates.
Learning objectives:
Find out the core strategies for improving tuition rates and other fees.
Understand the impact of discounting tuition and what discounts can be reduced or eliminated for improved revenue.
Gain access to a proven hiring process module for effective recruiting and hiring.
Understand the onboarding process and the impact of long-term staff success.
Receive a model for developing an effective team.
