Andrew Norton, Director: I implemented Magicbooking into my business (Energy Kidz Ltd) in 2016. At the time, we ran 33 out-of-school clubs and took bookings via phone, email and webform using 4 full-time customer care staff. We went on to operate over 100 out-of-school clubs and were able to reallocate 2 of the 4 customer care staff to other areas of the business. Using Magicbooking completely revolutionised Energy Kidz and allowed us to focus on delivering better quality childcare, while saving money and scaling the business. I believe in the product so much, that in 2018, I became a shareholder and director of Magicbooking, and Energy Kidz has since been acquired by an international provider of wraparound care, who continues to use Magicbooking today.
