[Nick, 6:26] "Instead of thinking, are they competent? Are they available? Do they have experience? Let's run it through a different series of questions of does this person align with who we are?" [Nick, 13:02] "Owners treat pricing as a math problem, but it is also a message. Your price tells people what kind of studio you are before they ever take a class."
