KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. Marketing - This is the biggest thing for martial arts school owners. You have to attract people to your business. Create a constant stream of new members coming to your school. Marketing is all about quality, it needs to portray the right message to your audience, and you must keep it fun, up-to-date and sexy to attract customers constantly.

3. Great Classes - Create a progressive system that always give the student something to work towards. Make sure they’re fun, quality and keep evolving to ensure your students are enthused. This will help your customer retention.
4. Great Service - Serve your customers in the best way possible and make the school as fun and enthusiastic as possible. Your students are not just a number, you need to keep it personal and love your students.
5. Great Staff - Having great staff and instructors will transform your business. You can serve your customers better and super-charge your school simply by having the right people around you. Employ the power team that will help your school grow and achieve your vision and values.
