Summer camp marketing is a unique beast. You're not just selling a product; you're selling an experience, a community, and a lifetime of memories. That's why a strategic approach is key. And that's where SWOT analysis comes in.
Why SWOT for Summer Camps?
SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) isn't just for Fortune 500 companies. It's a powerful tool to help you:
- Understand your camp's competitive landscape: What makes your camp stand out? Where are there areas for improvement?
- Identify growth opportunities: Are there untapped markets you could reach? New programs that would excite campers?
- Mitigate risks: What challenges could your camp face? How can you prepare for them?
- Prioritize marketing efforts: Where should you focus your time and resources to get the biggest impact?
