Do you dream of opening a school one day and believe you lack the financial resources to make it a reality? I thought it nearly every day for eight years, but lacked the investment, financial support, business sense and a black belt-- All things I believed were necessary to see it manifest. Events, circumstances and support would all converge in one particular moment creating an opportunity which allowed for me to open my own school as just a brown belt in my own stand alone location, despite many established schools in my area. Over a decade later I am still going strong despite once living pay cheque to pay cheque with no savings account, and only making a $22/hour. This writing is what I wish existed as I awaited on the permission and opportunity to move on my dream. Detailed inside this book: - Many of the lessons I learned training in many different schools, successful and unsuccessful.
- The circumstances that made it seem like it was impossible for me to ever be the one to open a school
- The lows of my own training and environment that discouraged and limited my vision, hopes and dreams.
- How I nearly quit Jiu Jitsu all together months before opening a school
- How everything went terribly wrong at first, and how it managed to work out.
- How I attracted all of my new students, and what students are ideal to attract.
- How important is social media for building a school
- Thoughts on the idea of competing against other schools in your area
- What I would have done differently if I was to start it all over again
- Thoughts on Are you really the right person to be doing this? No AI slop.
