Procare customers now can use IntelliKid Systems to sync data
of families looking to enroll, as well as to market their
centers.
DENVER, May 16, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- A new integration between Procare Solutions, a
leader in child care management software for more than 30 years,
and IntelliKid Systems, a leading provider of child care enrollment
and marketing software, offers a suite of marketing tools to
connect time-strapped early childhood education centers with
families searching for high-quality child care.
This comes at a time when nearly a third of centers report
being below capacity and parents are leaving the workforce to
care for young children.
Procare Solutions' customers now have the option to integrate
with IntelliKid Systems to do the following:
- Collect and organize more inquiries and schedule more tours
with IntelliKid Systems' embeddable landing pages so information
doesn't get lost or forgotten
- Sync family data between IntelliKid Systems and Procare
eliminating time-consuming data entry
- Integrate with Facebook Messenger
- Capture and record phone calls without any additional hardware
or change in provider
- Automate ongoing, personalized communications tailored to each
stage of a family's engagement with the child care center
- Schedule on-site or virtual tours, family orientations and open
houses and sync seamlessly with both center and parent
calendars
- Track ROI from advertising efforts from inquiry all the way to
registration and beyond
"We hear from many child care centers we serve that owners and
directors don't have the time, staff or expertise to devote to
increasing their enrollments," said JoAnn
Kintzel, CEO of Procare Solutions. "Expanding our
partnership with IntelliKid Systems allows us to meet their needs
and achieve their business goals."
IntelliKid Systems specializes in practical enrollment tools
that lift the quality of communication while saving directors and
owners time that is better spent nurturing and educating young
children.
This partnership adds marketing automation to the suite of
robust enrollment tools already offered in Procare that include
waitlist management, electronic documents and the Lead Insights
dashboard that shows how effective a center is at converting
prospective customers.
With Procare and IntelliKid Systems, the entire enrollment
lifecycle is handled with ease, from inquiry to registration and
everything between. Procare Solutions' child care centers can
benefit from access to IntelliKid Systems enrollment tools
including managing job candidates and streamlining new family
registration.
The integration comes as the 2024 Child Care Management
Software Industry Trends Report from Procare Solutions found
that 47% of centers are struggling with enrollment, up
from 36% the year before.
Additionally, 33% of child care centers say they are under
capacity.
"Having grown up in the industry, I am acutely aware of the time
constraints put upon directors and owners in early childhood.
Alongside Procare Solutions, we are building the tools that put the
focus back on the program and education of young children while at
the same time enhancing the ease of operations," said Jared Hall, CEO and founder of IntelliKid
Systems.
This newest integration extends to Procare Online users and
expands upon the existing IntelliKid Systems offering made
available through Procare Desktop two years ago.
"In the past 11 months, we have successfully opened four new
centers and absolutely could not have managed the lead volume
without IntelliKid Systems. IKS helped us create a smooth and
professional customer experience that has led to increased
enrollment. We are excited about the new integration and expect it
to help us save time and limit data-entry mistakes," said
Scott Cotter, owner of AIM Academy
centers in Alabama.
