Q&A: What can I do with my website to help keep and motivate my students?
Question:
What can I do with my website to help keep and motivate my students?
Answer:
My suggestion would be to have a dedicated section of your website, possibly password protected, for the education and recognition of your students. Some of the things you can build into it are:
School Announcements - Post all your news, promotions, upcoming events and seminars.
Student Birthdays - Wishing them a Happy Birthday earns you good will, especially with parents and younger kids.
Student of the Month - Nothing boosts satisfaction like some public recognition
Class Schedules & Calendars - Helps keep your students informed on when classes are, as well as when you're closed and when special events are.
School History / Lineage
New Student Announcements & Resources - A nice way to say hello and welcome new students to the school, also helps give them all the "newbie" info.
Form Meanings and walk throughs
School Rules & Policies
Tournament Information and Results
Monthly Training Tips
Seminar Information
Black Belt Club - Special information for your BBC or other "specialty" groups.
Demonstration Team - Have a demo team? Great way to promote it and recognize the members who are representing your school
You can also setup a forum, public or private, to encourage community within your school.
