Bennett Hill Academies is a business opportunity and not a franchise.
Bennett Hill Academies has created a new, very valuable and unique concept for home daycares and to turn them into higher end learning academies that will enable the Owners to charge higher prices than traditional home daycares.
We have created an extremely elegant and beautiful website and app that Owners will be able to use as an effective marketing tool to capture the attention of more parent prospects when advertising their academies. That obviously is valuable since customer acquisition costs become cheaper for the Owners. The app currently has 22 super valuable features planned (and more are in development) that parents, teachers and Owners will find incredibly valuable and beneficial).
Owners will be able to work very closely with our very talented interior designers (at no additional) cost. The interior designer will work to create a very elegant, unique and cohesive design for both the exterior and interior of the learning academy. This will further enable owners to charge a higher price for parents. Interior designers will also create a list of where Owners can buy the furniture, decor, books and toys that meets their budget and also meets the elegant, higher end and cohesive look that the designer has created.
More importantly, parents will have much more control in what their child is learning and be at the center of any changes to the curriculum, schedule or polices. Parents will always have the teacher's and owner's ear and can request that their child be taught what the parents would like their child to be taught. If it is a reasonable request, the teacher must accommodate the request. For example if the children are learning counting 1-9 and a parent wants their child to be taught counting 10-20, the teacher much accommodate that request.
Parents will play a central and key role (if they choose to) in the curriculum and scheduling aspects of the academy). A curriculum, policy or scheduling change may not be made unless every parent has voted on that proposed change.
Parents can request an initiation to change parts of the curriculum, schedule and policies. Parents can request to have a round table meeting with all of the other parents, the teacher and owner if they have concerns about the learning academy. Parents can request to have a video meeting with the owner or teacher within 12 hours even on weekends and the teacher and owner must honor that request. So if there is an issue that the parent believes needs to be addressed quickly, it will be.
We present many valuable benefits for owners. Unlike a franchise, we only charge a one-time "Add Academies Fee" of $25K and then $30 per month per child. So if an owner opens up 1,000 academies, they won't need to pay any additional upfront cost to us. Also unlike with brick and mortar franchises, where the additional initial investment per location can be $300K-$600K or more, here we estimate that the additional initial investment per location will be $10K-$15K.
That is what the Add Academies Fee is, it?s just a fee for us to add all of the Owner?s future academies to the website and app providing very easy ability for parents to find their academies in the county, zip code or town where they live or will be moving to.
The value that Bennett So instead of a person having to spend $50k-80k to design and develop this type of website and an app, they?re getting that for $25K plus a monthly fee per academy. Also instead of paying $5K to a very talented interior designer to design one academy, with us, Owners, won't need to pay a dime because there won't be an additional cost.
So if we take an example of where an Owner will open 20 academies, without partnering with Bennett Hill, they will need to pay $165K. That will be the cost for the designing and development of the website and app and working with very talented interior designers for them to design 20 academies and shop for furniture, toys, decor, books, etc that meets the owner's budget while still making the academy look elegant and high-end. If owners partner with Bennett Hill, they will be saving $145K and that is just with 20 academies.
For Owners, we also give them almost absolute autonomy in running their academies, they are free to set their own polices, schedule, curriculum, food polices, hours of operation, pricing, hiring policies, name (as long is it sounds elegant) and much more. This will enable owners to run their academies the way they want but still adhere to our policies of parents being at the central role and focus of requesting any curriculum, policy or scheduling changes and having a vote in any proposed changes. This also includes enabling the parents to setup very quick video meetings with the owner and teacher. Academies must also allow the parent to be able to request that their child be taught something other than what the other children are being taught and as long as it is a reasonable request, the teacher must honor and accommodate that request.
For Owners, working with Bennett Hill also presents less risk as opposed to other businesses or franchises. Aside from the fact that we only require a fraction of the monetary investment that other franchises require, our concept works on an already proven concept. The concept of in-home daycares and commercial child care facilities are a proven concept with demand that will only increase. Bennett Hill is simply combining these two concepts into an elevated in-home learning academy.
Home daycares also intrinsically have numerous advantages and benefits that commercial daycare or learning facilities cannot offer that bring tremendous value and benefits for children and parents and teachers. So we have clear advantages solely on that aspect. Including having only on average 8 kids per location. This will enable stronger friendships to develop amongst the kids, stronger relationships between the teacher and child, less child turnover, stronger relationships between the parent and the teacher and strong relationship between the parent and owner.
Daycares are resistant to economic downturns. Child care has tremendous demand and that demand will only increase every year, AI will not replace the current human-centric system of child care. The demand for child care is universal in most countries. It is a lucrative space in the sense (especially from our higher end concept) you can generate on average $1,200 per month per child. So if you have 8 kids, you can generate $9,600 per month (just from ONE academy) in revenue and if you can enroll the children when they?re very young at 6 months or 1 year old, you can have the same paying customers for 5-6 years so consistent revenue without turnover. Meaning that Owners can hire teachers to operate the learning academy so they don?t have to go through the hassle of actually running the day to day operations. And it turns more so into passive income.
