Jaro’s business may be adversely affected if its partner institutions start directly marketing their programs
The company’s business is dependent on revenue sharing agreements with its partner institutions. If its partner institutions reduce their revenue share once their programs and courses have sufficient vintage to draw enrolments, Jaro’s revenue could decline. This may necessitate increased marketing efforts to acquire new learners, potentially leading to higher acquisition costs.
Jaro’s success is dependent on the Partner Institutions maintaining the quality of their content and delivery of courses and programs. Any negative feedback on the courses or programs will in turn hamper its ability to drive enrolments.
