Owners of education businesses - this one's for you. I asked 5 marketers across our schools what they stopped running this year and what they focused on. They spend real ad budgets every day, in different countries. From everything they told me, here are the insights that will actually be useful to you: 1. Leads will never cost what they did 10 years ago. We stopped waiting for cheap traffic and started growing the landing pages instead - new offers, new quizzes, better conversion. Not just new creatives. 2. A free trial lesson used to be enough to fill a group. Now it takes "4 free weeks." 3. Facebook lead forms stopped working. We moved to hand-written sites, and we don't run many - sometimes one page holds for months, because it converts better and cheaper than anything new we test. 4. We built our own tool to make quizzes. Traffic goes to a quiz now, not a form. 5. What buys the traffic changes on its own - video for a stretch, static right now. It's the Facebook auction, not our taste. So we don't cling to last month's winner. We track what's working now, scale it, and spend on analytics to catch the shift early. 6. Retargeting didn't work. Ads to people who'd visited the site or left a request but never came to the intro lesson - nothing. Might be the market. We stopped. 7. Webinars in kids' edtech don't work. Not for anyone. 8. A product that sells well isn't always one that makes money. We pulled ads off one that sold great - the lifetime value cost too much, and another course had a far better margin. We watch every cost, not just cost per lead. 9. A smaller budget doesn't make your leads worse. You just get fewer. The one real limit is the market: full in season, thin off-season, and the media plan has to account for that. 10. We don't always advertise what we sell. Run the AI course ad, and plenty sign up for Python once they're talking to us. So we find the cheapest way in, then sell from there. 11. Speaking only to a pain point isn't always the strongest play. A broader offer often pulls more. 12. AI writes our ad visuals now, alongside the designers. Still 90/10 in the designers' favor. Probably only for now. They landed on the same last point: a creative that works in one of our markets almost always works in the next. Proven across countries. So Algorithmics partners don't start from zero - they run what already worked somewhere else. --- This is part of the list. Want the other half?

Two educational center owners told me the same thing: "The business works. So why am I scared?" One owns a language school. For years it worked with full classes and families who stayed. Then English stopped being something only he could offer. And someone is always cheaper. His summers got thinner each year, tutoring centers and subscription based apps entered the market. Then one family - one he'd taught for six years - left for a newer-looking online school. That was the decisive moment: he wasn't losing clients on price. He was losing them on feeling old. And he had no idea how to fix that without rebuilding everything from scratch. He didn't rebuild, but just started teaching kids to code in the weekend hours - through Algorithmics platform, so he didn't have to become a tech person himself. It wasn't a grand plan. He tried it with one group. Then parents started asking to add the second hour. He's not safe forever. But he's not scared of August anymore. The other entrepreneur owns a robotics club. Her money kept leaking out. Kits cost a fortune, and small parts vanished every week. The worst part wasn't the cost for her - it was watching her best kids turn twelve and quit. They'd outgrown what she could offer them. They wanted to go further, and her setup couldn't take them there. One month four of her oldest students left together. She sat with that for a while, then stopped buying her way out. She moved the older kids into Python, and game design - through our platform, using the computers already sitting in the room. The twelve-year-olds who used to walk out stayed. Yes, not all of them.But enough that she wasn't starting over every year. Neither of these two business owners had some big transformation. They just stopped patching the same hole over and over and tried something different. If one of them is you, I've watched a few owners find a way out of exactly that. Happy to tell you how #EducationBusiness #SchoolOwners #EdTech #KidsCoding #SmallBusinessGrowth

You think parents enroll because of the lesson. Or price. It's actually 20 things they'll never tell you. Most of it happens in the first five minutes - at the door, in the hallway, in how you greet them. Price is the last thing on the list. 👇 Here's what parents are quietly checking: 1. Parking - can they actually stop the car? 2. The street - safe enough for the kid to walk alone? 3. The door - sticks and fights you? Then learning already feels hard. 4. The entrance zone - tea/coffee and a place to sit, or dark and damp? 5. Who greets them - a person, or no one? (No one is an instant no. Even solo, be there or set a time.) 6. Cleanliness - the obvious one half of centers still get wrong. 7. The bathroom - parents check it. Kids use it. 8. The smell - fresh air, or stuffy basement? 9. The classroom - no loud clutter, full attention on the subject. 10. A play zone - our partners build spaces where kids hang out and want to come back. 11. The teacher - a professor with degrees, or a young IT mind who speaks the kid's language? (Depends on your market.) 12. Group size - how many kids share one teacher's attention? 13. A clear subject plan - they see exactly what the course covers. 14. Their kid's face - 30 minutes in, hooked or bored? 15. Who runs the trial - we put a sales-trained teacher, so the kid feels at ease, not tested. 16. The certificate after the trial lesson - something the kid walks out holding. 17. Kids' real projects on display - the game they made, not stock posters. 18. Payment - installments and real options, not one take-it-or-leave-it price. 19. How fast you answered their first message - speed reads as care. 20. The follow-up - a message after the trial, or silence? None of this is about being the cheapest. It's about a parent feeling their kid is already in good hands - before they pay a cent. I stopped at 20. What's the one you'd add? #EdTech #EducationBusiness #SchoolOwners #FranchiseOpportunity

"I signed a coding franchise last year. It hasn't worked. Where did I go wrong?" In 9 cases out of 10, the answer isn't execution. It's the 5 questions people didn't ask before signing. Here they are 👇 1. A ready-made curriculum and methodology You shouldn't just get "brand access", you need a tangible product: course structure, materials, minute-by-minute teacher guides, a proprietary IT platform, a proven teaching methodology, and comprehensive teacher training. The quality of the product dictates whether kids stay and parents recommend you. 🔍 How to check: Ask to see the actual curriculum and test-drive the platform from both the student's and the teacher's perspectives. 2. Brand recognition and reputation The name should be backed by a real track record: results, massive case studies, and thriving hubs in other cities or countries. Parents are much more willing to enroll their kids in a brand they already know - this drastically lowers your customer acquisition cost and boosts conversions. 🔍 How to check: Ask about active franchise partners, their timelines, and their results. Do your own research on their reviews. 3. The franchisor runs schools themselves The strongest franchisors don't just sell the model - they operate their own centers and make money doing it. If they only earn from selling franchises, your success is optional to them. If they run their own profitable hubs, their incentives are aligned with yours. 🔍 How to check: Ask about company-owned centers they operate and how those perform. A franchisor with skin in the game improves the product because they live with it too. 4. Launch support A top-tier franchise doesn't leave you stranded with sales. They provide a marketing kit, train your team on sales scripts, and give you every possible tool to activate your existing parent base. 🔍 How to check: Ask exactly what you get at launch (marketing assets, sales training) and how they will help you cross-sell to your current families. 5. Support and business integration Launching a new educational track is a major operational project. You need a step-by-step strategic plan, not just a PDF manual. 🔍 How to check: Ask to see a launch roadmap (week by week) and ask about progress syncs. Run any franchise you are considering through these five points. If they hit all five, keep talking. If they hit one or two and try to "paint over" the rest with a fancy pitch deck, it's better not to rush. Which of these 5 points would you rank as your absolute # 1 priority? #franchising #businessowner #edupreneur #franchiseopportunity #edtech
