As studio owners, we are expert multi-taskers, adept at juggling 50,000 balls in the air at once! We’re used to memorising everything from timetables, parent names, even to when the toilet rolls need replacing.
Something I like to ask studio owners is: If you had to reduce your workload by 30 minutes this week, what would you have to do differently? Often, the answer is simply by starting to use some of the brilliant tools on offer that make the business of running a studio much easier! These are just a few of the most adored tools studio owners use, but if you want more, then you are in luck.
We surveyed 200+ super productive studio owners on the tools they love to use on a day-to-day basis and then created a list of the 20 most essential resources every studio owner should know about. To help make running your studio a breeze, these are some of our favorite tools to boost your productivity and give you more time to focus on your passions.

Pomodoro App
A brilliant way to become more productive by working in short 25-minute sprints. Simply set your timer in the app and decide on what you want to achieve in that time. Pomodoro keeps you focused and working smarter, not longer.

A tool adored by many Studio Expansion members, this is a way to keep on top of your workload and collaborate with your team all in one place.
