Things You Need To Maximise Your MA School in 2019 and Beyond
Do you get flustered of what to do next for your Martial Arts School? For most of us, New Year means New Plans.
In this episode of the Martial Arts Business Podcast, Gordon lists the 10 things you need to consider when you want to maximise your MA School this year. It’s okay to admit that you’re still having doubts and even don’t have definite plans for the entire year. Let Gordon help you about it. Growing your martial arts business is a serious matter. It’s a process that involves thorough preparations and planned paddling through the waters. So, make sure to tune in to get a hold on great tips for your business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- You need a BIG plan. Get as detailed as possible when you make plans, so it’s easier to follow and understand. Go beyond what you think you can do. Go bigger and be bolder.
- You got to have a reason – a big WHY. What is the reason that gives you a good night sleep and makes you wake up energetically? That’s the reason that can push you more than anything.
- Market effectively. Don’t be a lazy marketer – i.e. posting on Facebook and waiting for it to get traction. Marketing effectively is going to be key if you want to grow anything.
- Focus on the right things. There should be no excuses. Prioritise what should be done to get the results you want.
- You need to be disciplined in this business. There will be challenges and distractions that will come your way.
- You need to get accountability. You need a great mentor, or someone’s who’s gonna hold you accountable.
- Knowledge is the key. Learn new things. Read on what could help you grow your school. Schedule your online lessons, coaching sessions, etc. regularly.
- Be honest with yourself. Acknowledge your strengths and weaknesses. Know your limits also so you know where you can focus.
- Invest time in yourself. There’s no magic pill to make sure you make time in improving yourself. Don’t waste it on things that won’t help you develop your school.
- Have the right mindset. Stay positive while remaining realistic. Believe that you can achieve what you want.
