What’s not working?
Hey Everyone, What's been your main focus right now, lead flow or retention?

@Sam Shawa I think leads are down across the board. But for adults. How’s your Kids program?

@Sam Shawa go all in on kids!!! It’s the majority of our leads
Monthly pricing
Hey guys! What’s everyone charging? Food and gas is through the roof!. Are you guys charging according to inflation and the economy? If not, you should!

@Ranulfo Gonzalez that’s still good pricing! What was your pricing before?
Wins!
Our plaza owner moved us to a different location (at their expense), which means we got no Spring Break. HOWEVER, We ran a Grand Reopening these last three weeks including a Buddy Week last week. We were baffled by the low participation with the Kids, but our Teens and Adults filled out mats at our small school. Because of that event alone, we got 2 more adults, upgraded 2 teens to Leadership, and got 1 sibling enrolled in Kid Champs. That event alone saved our month. We're now thinking a Buddy Week needs to be a quarterly recruiting event.

We are doing a Referral challenge. Those tend to do really well for us.

@Austin Marshall great question! If they bring a friend, we put their name in a raffle for a $250 gift card to Graice University. This has worked very well for us. It could be used towards anything else, for example merch or Lessons?
New video ideas?
Hey guys, what’s the YouTube video you guys want to see? What problems do you need me to address? It sounds like a lot of people are having issues acquiring new adult members
