Intelligent Scheduling: Creating Profitable Class Timetables

Smart Scheduling: More Than Just Filling Time Slots

Scheduling classes in a studio might seem straightforward—just pick times and assign instructors, right? In reality, smart scheduling is about balancing member demand, instructor availability, and studio space to maximize profitability and satisfaction.

At WEL-B OPTIMISE, we know intelligent scheduling is a cornerstone of a successful studio. Our platform equips you with the tools and insights to design timetables that work for your business and your clients.

Why Scheduling Matters

Scheduling directly impacts:

• Revenue: The number and timing of classes influence attendance and income.

• Costs: Too many classes can increase instructor fees and overheads without boosting revenue proportionally.

• Member Experience: Classes at inconvenient times or with limited options can reduce attendance and retention.

Poor scheduling can lead to empty classes, unhappy instructors, and lost income. Intelligent scheduling strikes the perfect balance.

Key Factors in Building a Profitable Timetable

• Understand Your Members: Analyse attendance patterns and preferred class types.

• Balance Supply and Demand: Offer enough classes during busy periods and avoid over-scheduling during quieter times.

• Class Variety and Progression: Provide a mix of class types and difficulty levels to meet diverse member needs.
