Computer Training - How Do I Increase Business by aonikoyi: 2:02am On Jun 21, 2010 |
@aonikoyi , I offer diploma courses in Computer operations ie Computer appreciation and Windows, Microsoft office programs Corel draw & advanced graphic designs, Not sure why my reply didnt show so I decided to create another Thread i also offer Computer Maintenance/ Engineering AutoCAD (2D & 3D) Peach tree accounting and sage pastel training. i want to know how i can increase my student's drive, i use Flat screen monitors with p4 system brand new. , Corel Draw is not an advanced graphic Tool. Photoshop is. Photoshop is the standard. So Ive READ a little in this post about advice. Well I dont agree people would do business with you because of price. Sell yourself and when people begin to trust you, the crowd will come. Let me be more elaborate, Why would I want to do business with you? What makes you special. In other words if there was another computer school 10 miles down the road that offered the same price, same software courses and had the same hardware. what would be your own USP ie unique selling proposition? This is the first thing you need to consider, what makes doing business with you so different. What are they getting from you that they are not getting from some one else. i also offer Computer Maintenance/ Engineering AutoCAD (2D & 3D) Peach tree accounting and sage pastel training. , It takes a while to learn autocad. I don't think you should be offering certificates. unless you are pretty good at autocad and thats all you do, but Im giving you a US perspective. I will offer another suggestion here , Offer discount or free seminars. Here is a way you can do it. Think of a project that you could work on. For example, let say you were doing this Advanced Graphic Class. I good example would be to work on a Poster for and Advert, Maybe a DVD or Movie VCD cover. Work on this project yourself and make it look real good. Then Offer a 1hr Seminar for not free but for a nominal fee. If I were to do this in the US it would be for $10 to 20 bucks. Just cover you costs and time. Like Gen fee your time. Or if you can offer it for free (more on that later) So at your seminar you would need an overhead projector and you would have these people not on the computers but sitting down watching you work. You will show them the final product first. this is the shock factor, maybe you have created a dvd cover art. Pass the DVD around, let them touch and feel it. Then Show them about 20% of how to do it. Well since you don't have enough time, when they enroll for you course, you can teach them to create such projects on their own. As the prospects arrive and during the seminar, get their names, address phone number and email. then work your list. What I mean by work your list is that you could text message these prospects later on an thank them for attending you seminar. And since they attended you would give them a date when the real class starts and offer a promotion. Like maybe 20% discount. maybe is they sign up for 2 courses, get the 3rd course for free. you can freak it however you want. But you have to offer valuable content. This is just 1 idea, I have 100 more , Here is another question. Are you leveraging your hidden assets? I will give you one of your assets. your past clients. How many of you past clients enroll in a course with you again? what percentage? are you tracking your past customers, can you contact them again and again? Do you have a referral system in place? Do you have up-sell products and services? Everything in Business has to be measurable. if you cant measure it, you don't know how effective it is, Thanks |
