InJoy Studio Ownership

On today's episode of the pod She and I are so excited to reveal something we have been working on behind the scenes for awhile now... The Business of Movement Workshop!! In this 3 day workshop we will be getting in the weeds with you and your studio to work through all the things we never feel like we have time for...marketing, financials, staff management, hiring, firing, contracts, business models, pricing, taxes, overcoming client objections, sales funnels...you know...all that other stuff that comes with owning business no one ever told you about!

Owning your own studio shouldn't be so hard. The Business of Movement Workshop will help you get clear on what aspects of your business aren't serving you and how to fix them so that you can have a studio that you love for the long-haul!

It's the Season 3 Finale with your host Emily!

On today's episode of the podcast I talk about online scheduling software options! Which ones to consider, which ones to avoid, and special considerations you may not have even thought about while you shop around for what works best for your studio.

I also get a little ranty over the topic of W-9's. Why as business owners we should not be afraid of this little piece of paper!

Lastly, I share how my husband and I tackle each week to ensure we have family time and couple time. It is crucial to schedule these things as we all know our businesses can easily take over our lives!
