The #1 Problem For Dance Studio Owners and How We’re Solving it
Have you ever been in a car accident? Have you experienced the stress of being on the side of the road with your car in shambles, feeling upset and frustrated?
Have you then been given a rental or temporary vehicle by your car insurance company? Or even a brand new car in some cases?
These are the moments when you thank God for car insurance, and don’t feel the need to complain about your monthly car insurance payments, because you see their worth firsthand.
Suddenly slogans like, “You’re in Good Hands” (Allstate Insurance) and “Nationwide is On Your Side” take on a whole new meaning.
What is the # Problem For Dance Studio Owners Across America?
Hiring and Retaining Great Dance Teachers.
Why is this a problem for dance studio owners?
- Because dance teachers are professional dancers who often are still performing, and therefore may need to leave their jobs from time to time for performance gigs.
- For many dance teachers, teaching dance is a stop along the way in their career, and not a long-term career commitment.
- Many dance teachers travel long distances from a nearby city or hub to teach at suburban or rural dance studios. Over time, the commute can be a deciding factor in staying or leaving a particular dance studio.
- Some dance teachers want to earn more money, and don’t see potential for financial growth at many dance studios.
- Some dance teachers want to open their own dance studio.
- Just like in other fields, dance teachers get married, have babies, get sick, get injured, have a death in the family, have surgery, have to take care of sick parents, etc. So, sometimes dance studio owners need last-minute coverage for their classes, as a result of an emergency.
- Sometimes dance teachers simply change their career path.
- Dance teaching jobs tend to be seasonal. which leaves many dance teachers unemployed for 3 months (the Summer months) out of the year. So many dancers opt for more consistent work throughout the year.
Based on this information, wouldn’t you agree that it’s time for dance studio owners to have some form of “Dance Teacher Insurance”? Individuals have health insurance (well, the lucky ones that is), life insurance, and car insurance. Small business owners have liability insurance. So if you own a dance studio, it makes sense to have a system in place when the issues above arrive, so that you can handle it as quickly as possible, with the least amount of stress and disruption to your daily operations.
That’s where we come in.
Kiner Enterprises Inc. started out as the first dance teacher staffing agency in the U.S. Providing dance teachers for short and long-term positions, last-minute subs, choreography, etc. We’ve now expanded to a multimedia, dance consulting company, serving dance studio owners, dance teachers, and dance professionals in as many ways as possible. As a result, we’re creating a new and better way to assist dance studio owners with dance teacher staffing issues.
We’ve decided that it’s time to help dance studio owners resolve your number one issue, once and for all, and we’re creating a platform to help you do just that. Think of it as “Dance Teacher Insurance”. We will provide you with direct access to dance teachers of all genres, across the United States (but most importantly, in your local area), that are available for teaching positions and last-minute subbing at your dance studio. No middle man, no long-process, just direct access to the teachers that you need to hire. That way, you’ll never have to feel helpless or alone when you’re in a bind, and you’ll have all of the resources you need at the click of a button.
I know the stress that dance studio owners experience on a day-to-day basis because I have worked so closely with many of you, and I know that this is one of your number one pain points. 2011 is a perfect time to address and resolve this problem once and for all.
