Ep. 62 - JP Levesque - Planning ahead to ride the seasons
from The Business of Jiu Jitsu · host JP Levesque
After being in business for two summers I was over it. I had a bad July and a worse August as members went on hold or quit. So I decided right then and there I wouldn't be caught again next summer in the same situation, scraping the bottom of my savings to pay bills until members came back. The craziest part is it worked! I was no longer a reactive business owner riding this roller coaster waiting to see what would happen. I was learning to ride the waves of each season and anticipate the next. Truth be told it was more work, but it beat the alternative of uncertainty and the stress of not knowing how each season would go for my business. If you want to take an even deeper dive into growing your Jiu Jitsu Academy you can follow me on socials, or head over to www.Growjitsu.com/book to download a free copy of my book - The Unstuck Academy.
