For Community Recreation Centers

Incoming Call...

Community Member

"Hi, I want to register my kids for summer swim lessons. Are there openings?"

AI Receptionist

"Yes! We have openings in Level 2 swim—Tuesdays and Thursdays at 4 PM. Would you like me to register them now?"

✓ Enrolled • Summer Swim Level 2

The Problem

COMMUNITY RECREATION CENTERS
LOSE MEMBERS DAILY

Families call during programs when staff are busy, registration deadlines get missed, and parents can't reach you when they need answers. There's a better way.

You Miss Calls When Families Need You Most

A parent finds your summer camp program at 9 PM, calls to register, and gets voicemail. By morning, they've already enrolled their kids with another recreation center that answered immediately.

The Cost
$850/member
Lost annual membership revenue

Your Staff Is Overwhelmed During Programs

While your team is running youth basketball, the front desk gets flooded with calls about pool hours, membership renewals, and class availability. Families get frustrated on hold, and you lose registrations to faster-responding centers.

The Cost
80+ calls/day
Per recreation center

Facility Tours No-Show and Programs Stay Underenrolled

You schedule a family to tour your facility, block out staff time, and prepare materials. They don't show up. You send one reminder text that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone, and your program runs under capacity.

The Cost
35% no-show
Rate for facility tours
