If you have a dance studio or if you’re an independent dance instructor, your goal is to share with people your love of dancing. Those who would like to improve their dancing skills, couples who are practicing for their wedding, or kids with parents who want them to learn how to dance – these are some of the clients that you can have as a dance studio owner or independent dance instructor. But if you are just starting out in the business, or if you moved to a new state and you don’t have students for dance classes yet, how can you spread the word about your skills? You can go for traditional advertising materials and purchase a rack cards printing package. Rack cards are handy marketing materials which can be displayed in literature, brochure, or rack stands. The idea is for people passing by to get one from the display, then read the information on the card. If they are interested with what you have to offer, they are bound to take the rack card home for future reference.
Rack Cards for Dance Classes
To get started on using rack cards to advertise your dance classes, here are a few things to remember:
- Look for the right online printing services provider.
You can choose between offset and digital printing. When looking for a print shop to create the rack cards for you, ask about the package price; the type of printing method used; the paper stock and finish; and do your research if they offer quality customer support.
- Use catchy headlines on the rack cards.
Rack cards have less space than brochures but more space than business cards, so you can include a graphic with a headline and a short description of your dance classes. Use catchy headlines to introduce your dance lessons; announce a date for registration for fall classes, for example; or simply state that you are offering dance lessons for a very reasonable price.
- Use the tear-off business card option.
Rack cards measure 3.5” x 8.5” or 4” x 9”. To make your dance rack cards stand out, use the option where the lower part of the card can be torn off and used as a business card.
- Include a promo code to increase the response rate.
Finally, include a promo code at the back of the rack card. You can offer three lessons for a discounted rate, or a certain percent off for fall dance lessons. Be creative in offering promotions so that more students – adult or kids – can grab the chance to improve their dancing skills.
With rack cards, you can promote the dance lessons that you offer and share with people your love of the craft as they improve their own skills at the same time.
