Relationship Marketing as a Competitive Edge
November 9, 2005
Don't worry that children never listen to you. Worry that they are always watching you.
-Robert Fulghum

You see their ads, their four-color brochure, their big new sign. How can you compete for enrollment against the sophisticated marketing being done by the center down the street? Though it takes creative marketing collateral and activities to communicate your center’s unique message and generate inquiries, the answer to this question may already be within your center.

The parents whose children are currently enrolled in your center are your most cost-effective marketing resource. How they feel they are treated by you and your staff can cause them to become loyal customers, or drive them into the waiting arms of your competitors. How can you help those parents become customers who are not merely satisfied with your services, but enthusiastic ambassadors for your center? You do it through an ongoing process I refer to as relationship marketing.
