  • #139 | What you need to ask yourself for fast studio growth

    We all know there is more to running an amazing dance studio then posting on social media and emailing with parents. Without creating an exceptional experience in the classroom, we don’t have an amazing product that we can share and grow.

    If you are a one person show or growing your team, it is so hard to balance the time between all the administration that comes with running a business as well as creating exciting lesson plans from week to week. Here is where an amazing curriculum steps in!


    If you have spare cash lying around, I would recommend looking to purchase a curriculum that is already done for you as it would save a heap of time. But maybe like me when I started the curriculum journey, if you don’t have a heap spare at minute, it might be time to create something yourself. Or even if you like creative control, creating a curriculum that is custom to your studio can be an amazing asset.

    Over the next 3 episodes I am going to dive deep on the difference between a curriculum that works & one that flops, what you need to ask yourself when creating a successful curriculum & my 5 step curriculum creation process to create the curriculum of your dreams.


    Over the next 3 weeks I will be sharing bonus tidbits, templates and videos in my Facebook group for DSOs. If you want to grab a copy, just join the FB community. It is all free! https://www.facebook.com/groups/assembledancestudiocoaching

    Today we are going over the 4 questions you need to ask yourself before starting to create a curriculum at your studio.

    Like many other DSOs I am a part of a heap of different Facebook groups & dance studio owner communities and something I consistently see coming up or being asked about is how to not feel guilty about not being at your studio?

    • Have I spent enough time with family this week?
    • Ugh... I didn't finish everything on my to do list
    • If you are looking for some strategies to deal with this feeling, keep listening!

      DOWNLOAD YOUR FREE COPY OF MY “97 WAYS TO GROW YOUR DANCE STUDIO”  E-BOOK NOW - http://assembledancestudiocoaching.com/marketingebook/


      As a dance studio business coach, I speak with and see so many amazing dance studio owners every year. All of my clients generally want to grow or improve in some way obviously, but even as DSOs in the community I am sure you have seen and know amazing DSOs as well as some business owners who might be struggling to grow or manage their businesses.


      If you don’t do these things - of course it doesn’t mean you aren't successful. I’m not perfect at all of these either.


      Success is defined as “the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.”

      "Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts."

      -- Winston S. Churchill


      In today’s episode I take you through the six differences between a successful and an unsuccessful dance studio.

      1. Invest time and money into team training
      2. Delegate
      3. Have a clear business plan with 1, 5 & 10 year goals
      4. Know their numbers
      5. Follow through
      6. Feel included as part of a community & be supported
      7. If you are wanting to create more rapid growth in your business and yourself - make a note of the details above and take action to start implementing this week!

      8. #136 | What I'm doing to prepare for maternity leave

        DOWNLOAD YOUR FREE COPY OF MY “97 WAYS TO GROW YOUR DANCE STUDIO”  E-BOOK NOW - http://assembledancestudiocoaching.com/marketingebook/

        Well, in case you didn’t know I am pregnant, but by the time you hear this I might already have a little bub!

        In todays episode I am telling you the steps I put in place for my maternity leave and how you can implement them as well! If you aren’t going on maternity leave or don’t plan to (totally fine), the same info in this episode

        could be applied to a short or extended holiday, family emergency or even if you were to injure yourself etc!

        I Have seen a lot of posts in Facebook groups from people who are unsure what to do, have last minute staff changes and are generally stressed about the concept of “leaving” for an extended period. I get it - it's not always possible and I am not claiming to have all the info or to be completely checking out for the next 4 months. But due to a few extenuating circumstances over the last month, I started my mat leave even a little early.

        Here are my top 5 musts for me to be able to step away from the business:

        1. Invested time and money into team training

        2. Systemise your processes

        3. Trust in your team

        4. Schedule catch ups

        5. Allocate roles & their ability to make decisions

        If you have any further questions, please reach out to me! I would love to help! [email protected]
