Income has more than quadrupled and members doubled with Spark taking the strain of much of the repetitive admin tasks and freeing up staff and managers for the $100 and $1,000 tasks rather than the $10 ones. Great automations to nurture our leads & students, saves us hours.
“Spark has been a game-changer for my martial arts business. It more than pays for itself by helping manage prospects, increase new business, improve retention, and streamline processes like mass rank promotions — something that used to take me hours and now takes the push of a button. It saves me the cost of at least one employee, and I wouldn’t be without it.”
