A Pike13 Case Study
Ward School of Dance, led by owner Kirsten McQuat, faced decades-old, paper-based administrative processes and a cumbersome legacy system for scheduling, bookings and finances that left her overwhelmed. To modernize operations and reclaim time for teaching and growth, Ward implemented the Pike13 platform (Pike13 software).
Moving to Pike13 streamlined administration—employees adopted the system quickly, parent communication and online sign-ups became simple, and Kirsten regained about three to four hours per week. Those efficiencies translated into increased enrollment, plans for a new studio space, more focus on curriculum development and improved work–life balance, outcomes Ward attributes directly to Pike13.
