The Challenge
A gymnastics center offering year-round enrollment for ages 3–18 wanted to boost new student signups through free trial classes. While word-of-mouth brought steady traffic, they lacked a reliable way to consistently reach and convert new families in the community. Their past email and social media efforts didn’t generate enough in-person visits.
The Strategy
Using OMNI reach SMB — a powerful AI-powered marketing system — the center launched a multi-channel campaign promoting a free trial offer via postcards and digital ads. A bold message and clean design led with “Confidence Starts with a Cartwheel,” accompanied by a QR code to instantly claim a free class. OMNI reach’s machine learning engine targeted households with children in the right age range, cross-referenced with location and family engagement data. Recipients were then retargeted across Facebook and Google for maximum visibility and conversion.
The Results
The campaign generated 69 total responses and $24,600 in new revenue from students who converted from trial to full enrollment. More than 2,200 clicks were recorded across platforms, with an ROI of 410%. The simplicity of the offer and the mobile-friendly signup drove strong results across both recreational and competitive program interest.
