Work Smarter, Not Harder: Systems, Camps & Profit with Jackrabbit Dance
from Rhee Gold's DanceLife · host Rhee Gold in association with Roar Success
In this special episode of Rhee Gold’s Dance Life Podcast, Stacey Morgan and Rhee Gold welcome their first-ever guests to the show after more than seven years of hosting together. Joining them behind the microphone are Molly Stroud and Jayme Bell from Jackrabbit Dance, the long-time sponsor of the podcast. Together, they unpack what studio owners are facing right now — and how smart systems can bring more ease, clarity, and profit back into studio life. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why studio owners are still feeling the ripple effects of post-pandemic enrollment shifts, and what parents now want from commitments How Jackrabbit Dance’s Client Success team supports studio owners through low enrollment seasons by listening first, then building practical solutions Why the dance industry has proven especially adaptable — the “show must go on” energy, innovation, and fast pivots The features that can save time immediately, including: Online registration and parent portal access Automated billing and payment processing (so you’re not chasing money) Better website-to-registration workflows Centralised communication through Jackrabbit Plus (branded app, groups, push notifications) Resources tabs for costumes, hair, videos, and quick answers parents actually use What’s “hot” right now for summer programming — including the rise of more flexible, creative camps (and why studios should experiment) A look at Jackrabbit Camps, including policies, deposits, session selection, and ongoing product updates based on real studio timelines A powerful studio-owner money conversation: why too many discounts can quietly drain profitability — and how studio owners can stop “discounting themselves out of business” The mindset shift studio owners need: it’s okay to run a studio that makes a good profit, pays you well, and supports your future This episode is equal parts practical and energising — a reminder that dance studio owners don’t start businesses to do admin all day. With the right systems and support, you can reclaim time, improve customer experience, and build a studio that truly serves your life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
