Why Is Reporting Important for Childcare Enrollment?
Understanding how to optimize marketing campaigns starts with reporting. Childcare enrollment and marketing reports display information about your family data, staff productivity, task efficiency, campaign success, and more. Real-time reports update your data promptly and more often– ensuring you have the most up-to-date information available. Time-sensitive data – like tours scheduled that day, enrollment conversions, and children starting – are typically visualized in real-time dashboards.

Types of Reports to Elevate Your Marketing Campaigns and Enrollment Journey
1) Marketing Campaign ROI Report
Overall, this report tells you which marketing campaigns are most effective. It details an account of which active marketing campaigns are producing enrollments. Unfortunately, lacking a Campaign ROI report leads to inefficient campaigns that run longer than they should. You’ll possibly experience a loss of revenue without access to this data.
See the results of each marketing campaign and the outcome of specific conversion or revenue opportunities. Invest marketing spend in the highest-performing campaigns.

2) Marketing Source Report
A marketing source report tracks your marketing sources, such as families coming from your website, search engines, direct mail, referrals, and more. This report tells you where each new lead came from, giving you a visual of how many leads are from each channel. Without it, you’ll find it difficult to know your most popular marketing channels – which wastes your marketing and advertising efforts.
With a clear view of your most popular advertising channels, you’ll know how parents are learning about your centers. Improve your marketing efforts and, ultimately, your ROI by investing in the channels your parents prefer.

3) Estimated Revenue Report
An estimated revenue report provides a ratio between the dollar value of your enrollment funnel and upcoming revenue from lead conversions. Each enrollment stage or lead status your prospective parents go through represents the progression of opportunity.
Without this report, it’s difficult to predict revenue based on active leads in your enrollment funnel. In short, you won’t know how much money your leads will generate in the future. This is a vital report to make forecasts that impact your childcare organization. In addition, with the right marketing automation software, you can filter by status to show your revenue decrease from lost opportunities.
