Gwen shares her journey from burned-out yoga instructor to successful online entrepreneur, offering valuable insights on creating a sustainable and profitable yoga business.Here are the 10 key takeaways:1. Diversify Your Offerings: Expand beyond regular classes to include workshops, retreats, teacher trainings, and online courses.2. Create a Strategic Offer Suite: Start with your non-negotiables, find your specialty, and build a pathway from lower-priced to higher-priced offerings.3. Rethink the Membership Model: Be cautious with yoga memberships in 2024 and beyond. They work best as a retention tool rather than a primary offering.4. Embrace Hybrid Business Models: Combine in-person and online offerings for flexibility and multiple income streams.5. Focus on Your Community: Create offers that align with both your passion and your audience's needs.6. Learn from Mistakes: Don't be afraid to make mistakes – they're part of the entrepreneurial journey.7. Keep Moving Forward: Take consistent action, even when faced with setbacks.8. Provide Implementation Support: People crave community and help with implementing knowledge, not just more information.9. Be Strategic in Marketing: Find softer ways to build your community that align with yoga values, rather than aggressive sales tactics.10. Invest in Learning: Don't hesitate to seek help or invest in learning business skills to complement your yoga expertise.Connect with GwenTo learn more about building a successful yoga business, follow Gwen on Instagram or visit her website at yogacareerwithgwen.com.Remember, building a sustainable yoga business takes time and effort, but with the right strategy and mindset, you can create a thriving career doing what you love.Learn More➡️ Join the Blissful Biz Hive, my FREE community for yoga teachers to help you build a purpose-driven and profitable online business.
