How to Make Sense of Your Studio’s KPIs
13 November 2024
Hey there, studio owners.
Before you scroll away, here are three questions that you must ask yourself:
➡️ Do you know your average class attendance rate without having to dig through reports?
➡️ How many of your clients come back after their first visit?
➡️ Are you clear on your studio’s monthly revenue trends and where your biggest profits come from?
If you had to pause for a second, don’t worry—you’re not alone. And that’s exactly why you should stick around for the next 5 minutes.
Why Do Studio Owners Often Overlook Performance Metrics?
Let’s be real—digging into performance metrics can feel like wading through mud. Where do you even start?
At Kenko, we chat with fitness studio owners every day, and guess what? Almost everyone says the same thing: checking performance metrics often gets pushed aside.
With classes to run, clients to keep happy, and staff to manage, who has time to dive into the data?
But here’s the thing—you really do need to take a breather now and then to check your studio’s performance.
Think of it like pulling over during a road trip to make sure you’re still on the right track. Without these check-ins, you might drive your studio in the wrong direction.
That’s exactly why we created Insights—so you can make smart, data-backed decisions and become even better at what you do.

Insights is like having a super tool—it turns all those confusing numbers into simple, visual reports: no jargon, no clutter, just clear snapshots of how your studio is doing.

How Often Should You Check Your Studio’s KPIs?
Wait.. stop - what’s a KPI?
A Key Performance Indicator (KPI) is a value that shows how well a business is achieving its key objectives. Just a fancy term, not as scary as you thought it would be.
Okay, let’s move on to what matters…
Keeping tabs on your KPIs is a must if you want your studio to thrive. Breaking them down into daily and monthly check-ins makes it easier to manage your day-to-day operations, spot trends as they pop up, and plan for long-term growth.
If you’re new to this, no worries—spend an extra five minutes going through the steps, and you’ll have a solid grasp of where to start and how to make this a regular habit.
Step 1 - Daily Review
These are the numbers that keep your studio running smoothly every day.
Pro Tip: Checking these at the end of each day lets you make quick adjustments and start the next day strong.

These are the bigger-picture metrics that help you see the trends and plan strategically.
