Do you feel like your team never takes initiative? Or do the tasks you delegate to your standard?

Leadership has been a hot topic among the studios that we worked with last year, so today I am sitting down and telling you EXACTLY how to go from pushing your team, to actually leading it.

Real talk, I used to burn my staff out and it’s because I wasn’t delegating effectively. And if I was, I had unreasonable expectations which easily feed into the internal narrative of “no one cares about my business as much as I do.” 

No, they don’t.

And they shouldn’t. It’s YOUR business and it’s your job to provide your staff members with the SKILLS to step up so that they actually WANT to meet you at your level.

Luckily for you, it’s an easy fix. Tune in to hear the three elements you need to work on to get your team to work WITH you and not FOR you.

Over the last 12 months, most people have taken a hit on their profit because of interest rates and the cost of living rising … but YOU don’t have to. In 2024 I want to help you to make MORE profit but not the type where you are hustling and working for it every single day … the type of money that you make in your SLEEP.

So in this episode, I’m sharing 6 profit levers (plus a bonus one) that you can pull, and it’s not adding protein bars to the shelves or selling more merch - these levers are things that will give you more revenue and more profit every single month.

How many leads do you have right now? 

If your answer is not enough I want to instead ask you, how many people are on your email list that you haven’t converted to be members yet? 

Every single one of those people are leads that you paid for at some stage but you just haven’t activated them … yet. 

And the best part is that email marketing is something hardly any of your competitors will be doing well right now AND IT GETS TO BE EASY (especially if you listen to this episode). 

In this week's solo episode, I’m giving you tactical advice and the actual tools, templates and structure you need to convert this goldmine into members TODAY.

The New Year's Resolutioners are here and it's up to YOU whether you are the studio they’re going to fail at OR if your studio is the one they are going to stick to for life.

This year we’re giving you everything to make sure it’s the LAST TIME that your members need to start again.

When you think about 2023 were you in control? Did you achieve that goal you set out to achieve? 

Everything in life is a choice. Either you make the choice, or the choice is made for you.

So I want you to ask yourself what do you ACTUALLY want out of 2024? And do you have a plan in place to get it? Because without one, you’re not going to get anywhere NEAR your goals.

On today’s episode, we are building your 2024 plan WITH YOU using an interactive worksheet. We talk all about the three aspects that make up the TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE and how you can win back what you think is missing from your business.

If I asked you the weakest link in your business, what would it be?

One month after our Breaking News episode, and we’re STILL getting out-of-office replies from studios that have shut down. And when we look at WHY all of these are continuing to happen, we’ve realised one MASSIVE thing that they have in common…

They are OUTSOURCING their CONFIDENCE. 

Is there something in your business that you are outsourcing now, NOT because they can do a better job than you, but because YOU don’t know how to do it?

We’ve told you before that WE were the problem with our clients. We ran ads for studios, and we made their sales but ultimately when they left us … they closed their doors. 

In this episode, we want to talk about the difference between delegating and outsourcing and the type of outsourcing that is a one-way ticket to closing your doors for GOOD.

Today’s episode marks the last in our series of interviews at Active Escapes Bali, where we have been sitting down and picking apart the brains of some of the BEST athletes in Australia. Through this journey, we have discovered key traits that ALL our interviewees have in common, and chat about their defining moments where they LEANED into the pain, and pushed through.

Our last, but not least interviewee is the incredible Amanda Bisk. Amanda is a professional pole-vaulter, she has represented Australia on multiple occasions, including at the Commonwealth Games in 2010. She is an exercise physiologist, a yoga instructor, and a pilates instructor AND owns the fitness app, Fresh Body Fit Mind.

Amanda walks us through getting an unexpected diagnosis that changed EVERYTHING, why she couldn’t bring herself to watch the 2012 Olympics and how she came back so brilliantly from rock bottom to absolutely NAIL her career.

This chat is moving, powerful and inspiring so make sure you take a listen!

Do you know how many of your members are on suspension and just HOW MUCH that is costing you?

The Suspension Tax is a term that I have coined to talk about the hidden tax that is preventing you from putting another 150k in your back pocket. We sometimes forget that when anyone goes on pause, they're only pausing the training. They're not pausing the community and they're not pausing the care. So why are you? 

We're doing live maths on the poddy again so you know what that means #DozaMaths. Get your calculators out and let's talk about our THREE-step process to increase your revenue from suspensions ALONE.
