In this live Q&A, franchise owners across the Little Boomers Basketball network share what's actually working on the ground — including how one territory grew to 165 enrolments in just two terms.

We break down the two biggest lessons from their success: why consistency beats any single marketing tactic, and why the franchises that stop marketing when things are going well are the ones who struggle the term after.

We also cover the upcoming network-wide price increase — including what the new pricing will look like, how RMS subscriptions are affected, and how to know when your enrolment numbers signal you're ready to charge more. Plus: Allstar Day logistics for Queensland, how to handle a parent wanting to book two classes per week across locations, and flyer drop strategies that actually get through school gates.

Whether you're just starting out or scaling fast, this session is packed with real, practical insights from people doing it right now.

In this video, I host a live Q&A session with franchise owners across the Little Boomers Basketball network

Franchisees share real on-the-ground challenges, including how to know when your program is ready to expand, how to add back-to-back classes without cannibalizing existing enrolments, and why average kids per class is the most important number to track in your franchise.

We also cover how weekday and weekend markets attract different families, and how to choose the right program type when opening a new class so you don't end up splitting members across two half-empty sessions.

Additional topics include uniform stock management, handling privacy concerns around camera-enabled glasses at class, Allstar competition prep and double dribbling rules, and franchisee questions on the RMS rollout.

If you're a current or aspiring franchise owner, this session offers honest, practical guidance on scaling your program the right way.

In this video, I host a live Q&A session with franchise owners across the Little Boomers Basketball network.

Franchisees share real on-the-ground challenges, including how to manage disruptive children in class, how to handle situations involving kids with special needs, and how to make tough calls that protect the safety and experience of all enrolled children.

We discuss how to communicate with parents when difficult situations arise, what language to use to remain professional and empathetic, and why acting early is almost always better than letting issues carry on. We also cover common questions around coaching performance — specifically how to give coaches clear, actionable feedback rather than vague directions, so they know exactly what's expected and can deliver a better class experience.

Additional topics include running dual courts simultaneously, managing venue disruptions with fast parent communication, and how to respond to parents who question the repetition of drills across terms.

These sessions allow the network to stay aligned, support each other through real operational challenges, and ensure every franchisee is equipped to handle the situations that don't come with a manual.It's a behind-the-scenes look at how franchise owners navigate the harder conversations — with parents, coaches, and venues — while keeping their programs running smoothly.

If you're a current or aspiring franchise owner, this session offers honest, practical guidance on handling the unexpected and building a program that families trust.

🚀 In this episode, we cover:

✅ Why revenue is a trap — and why net profit (what's actually left in your pocket) is the only number that truly matters when buying a franchise

✅ A simple "$1 breakdown" of franchise unit economics — royalty fees, COGS (court hire + coaches' wages), and operating expenses — with clear benchmarks to aim for (COGS under 40%, expenses under 30%, net profit 30%+)

✅ A real-world case study: 300 kids x $200 per child across an 8-week term — walk through the full calculation to see exactly how a franchise turns $60K in revenue into $43,620 net profit before tax

🚀 In this episode, we cover:

✅ Why franchisees question fees, develop a "self-serving bias," and how smart franchisors turn that friction into better systems

Most franchise owners know what they want from their coaches.

They just don't know how to hold them to it.

In this live workshop, I walk through how to build a standard that actually sticks — how to embed it, how to monitor it, and how to sit down with a coach who's not meeting it and have a conversation that gets results without burning the relationship.

I also introduce the SER Framework — the exact tool I use to take the emotion out of tough conversations and keep them focused on behaviour, not personality.

We do a live role-play on the spot with two franchisees, break it down in real time, and pull out the lessons together as a group.

If your team is running below the standard you know you should have — this session is for you.

In this video, I host a live Q&A session with franchise owners across the Little Boomers Basketball network.

Franchisees ask practical questions around marketing performance, including which channels are actually working, how to evaluate results, and how to avoid relying on assumptions when making marketing decisions.

We break down the importance of tracking where enrollments are coming from, understanding return on investment, and focusing on the channels that consistently generate results rather than spreading efforts too thin.

We also discuss common challenges franchisees face when running ads, managing budgets, and improving conversion from leads into enrolled members. Clear guidance is provided on how to assess performance and make more informed decisions based on real data.

Additionally, we touch on how better marketing decisions contribute to overall business growth, helping franchisees build more predictable and scalable enrollment systems.

These sessions allow the network to stay aligned, address real operational concerns, and ensure each franchisee is confident in executing their marketing strategies.

It’s a behind-the-scenes look at how franchise owners approach marketing, evaluate performance, and drive consistent enrollments.

If you're a current or aspiring franchise owner, this session provides practical insights on choosing the right marketing channels and improving enrollment outcomes.
