Looking To Start A Lucrative Daycare Business?

Discover The Best Tips On Starting A Successful Daycare!

Many times people who want to start a new business chaff at the idea of having to write a business plan. The idea of going through a tedious process of documenting the business aspects of something that is really your dream that you want to make come true seems tedious and unnecessary. After all, you know at a gut level what you want to do so the thought that you have to get that all on paper at a fairly detailed level seems to be a nuisance.

This may have been your reaction when you begin to plan your new day care that you want to open and perhaps your banker or someone at the small business association told you that creating a business plan was crucial to getting your day care out of the dream phase and into the realm of reality. But there are some very good reasons why you should give the process of creating a business plan for your future day care some serious effort and some patient tender loving care because it really is a major key to your future success in running your day care.

The timing that most people who want to start a day care business encounter the need for a business plan is in seeking funding. It takes Continue reading Your Day Care Business Plan →

Have you ever heard of someone doing all the right things for all the wrong reasons? Most of us can think of someone who has been guilty of that. There are a lot of questions you ask yourself when you start the planning for setting up your own day care center. You have to spend time on issues like location, financing, market share and licensing. But there is one fundamental question maybe more important than all of those things. And that is the question, why are you doing this?

The objective you are looking to achieve in doing all the hard work of starting a day care center will be a big factor in when or if you consider your hard work to be a success. In any big operation whether it is starting a business, going on a diet, invading a country or learning a skill, you have to know in advance what your definition of “winning” is so you know when you have arrived and when you can call yourself a success. And what winning looks like to you when you build your own day care Continue reading Why Start Your Own Day Care Center →

Just like any business, there is basically one central event that will mean the difference between success or failure in starting your own customers. It isn’t a difficult issue to figure out either. You have to find customers. And for you, customers are parents who need a quality day care that they feel they can trust to put their children in as they go off to work. The title we chose for this article is a famous quote from field of dreams where the voice tells Kevin Costner to build a baseball field for ghosts to play on with the encouragement, ‘If you build it, they will come.” While that is an inspirational line, you need more than that before you take the plunge of building a day care center.

Starting a business is costly. Before you collect a dime of income from parents, you have to set up your day care center, pay licensing fees, hire workers, buy supplies and invest in many other ways so that when the doors of your day care open, it is a happy, professional and welcoming Continue reading If You Build It They Will Come →

Because You Can Do It Better

There are a lot of reasons that people decide to start their own day care. For some its strictly a business venture. For others the motivation could be a background or academic training in child care and finding a way to use that expertise outside of public schools and pediatrics. But for many and perhaps for you, the motivation is quite simply that you know you can do it better than people who run day care centers that you have used.

One of the most heart wrenching things a parent has to do is to drop off your child at a day care center and to leave them in hysterics because Continue reading Because You Can Do It Better →
