Features that go further for your school

Your studio deserves more than the basics. That’s why Market Muscles delivers websites and features built to attract students, simplify operations, and set your school apart.

Reputation matters

Online reviews play a huge role in a family’s decision to join a school. Kicksite doesn’t offer reputation management tools to help you monitor, request, and respond to reviews. Market Muscles includes these features so you can build trust, strengthen your reputation, and stand out in your community.

Optimized for modern search

Today’s families don’t just rely on Google, they’re also turning to AI tools like ChatGPT to find answers and recommendations. Kicksite websites aren’t built with AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), which means your school is less likely to appear in these emerging search results. Every Market Muscles site is fully optimized for both SEO and AEO to maximize your visibility.

Designed to do more

Kicksite’s feature set leaves important gaps in how you manage and grow your school. Market Muscles fills those gaps with a complete toolkit, including a workflows library, built-in chatbot, and family grouping, all designed to make running your studio easier and more effective.

The Kicksite Alternative Studios Trust

Stronger websites, stronger growth

A strong website is one of the most important tools for growing your school, and it should do far more than act as an online brochure. Market Muscles is the Kicksite alternative that delivers semi-custom websites designed to attract attention, generate leads, and convert visitors.

Each site is fully optimized for SEO, AEO, and mobile, ensuring your studio stands out online, fills classes, and builds long-term credibility. With Market Muscles, your website isn’t just attractive, it’s a powerful growth engine that fills your classes, strengthens your reputation, and supports your studio’s long-term success.

Complete Toolkit

Close the gaps in studio management

Kicksite’s feature set leaves important gaps in how you manage and grow your school. Market Muscles is the Kicksite alternative that closes those gaps with a complete toolkit, including a workflows library, built-in chatbot, and family grouping, all designed to make running your studio easier and more effective.

And because online reviews play such a big role in a family’s decision, we also include reputation management tools to help you monitor, request, and respond with ease. The result? A streamlined system that saves time, builds trust, and helps your studio stand out in the community.

Market Muscles really puts you on the map. I have had the most leads ever and had even had to have a waiting list for students. If you haven’t given them a call to see if they can service you, you should’ve done it yesterday! Great customer service and one of the best investments made for my business!
