Frequently asked questions

What kind of support do I get?

You'll get real local support from our Australian and New Zealand team. We're available by phone, email, live chat, or Zoom—and you'll always speak to a real person, never a bot! Plus, you'll have access to monthly Masterclass sessions, the EFC Academy portal, our annual Summit, and the 24/7 Circle Community.

Is EFC expensive?

This is a common misconception we're happy to clarify. Since 1967, we've structured our fees to be accessible for martial arts schools of all sizes. With no setup fees, no annual administration fees, and all features included in one membership (member database, billing system, mobile app, and business support), our solution provides exceptional value. Chat with our team to learn how our service and fee structure can work for your school - many owners are pleasantly surprised when they see the complete picture of what's included and how it benefits their business.

What ongoing support do you provide?

Gain access to our local support team via email, phone, Zoom calls, live chat, and social media. There are many ways to contact us. No help is prevented by a contact us form. Our team provides personalised service to ensure you get the support you need.

What's the difference between you and other software providers?

We're not just a software company. EFC is a complete growth system built specifically for martial arts and dance schools. You get fee collection handled by our team (we chase overdue accounts so you don't have to), software that actually works together, proven business coaching, and a supportive community—all working together to help you grow. We've been doing this for 58 years globally, and we're the only provider in Australia and New Zealand offering this complete package with real local support.

What's included in the Aquila CRM package and are there additional costs?

The Aquila CRM includes a complete business management solution with member database, billing system, automated communications, mobile app, attendance tracking, and grading management - all in one integrated platform. There are no setup fees and no annual administration fees. We believe in making it easy for martial arts schools to get started with professional management tools.

How does the onboarding and training process work?

When you join EFC, you'll receive personalised assistance and help with software setup from our experienced team. You'll join other EFC members in weekly calls focused on business growth and learning, plus gain access to our self-paced software training platform. Our comprehensive onboarding ensures you have all the tools and support needed to succeed.

Can I use my current website?

Absolutely. If you're happy with your current design, we can connect it to the EFC CRM to capture and track leads automatically. If you'd like to update your site, our Website team can rebuild it using proven layouts that turn visitors into students. Either way, your website will work as part of your business system, not separate from it.
