We discussed ideas such as: Why Andrew enjoys my POV of looking at tickets through the gamut of tickets sold. We discuss the idea of inspiration from outside of the world of arts.

Martial Arts Marketing For School Owner Podcast - Ep #100Gus and Allie discuss "Martial Arts Marketing For School Owner Podcast - 100th Episode Celebration!"
If we think consumers are looking at arts organizations just to experience great art, we've got it all wrong. Instead, customers are “hiring” organizations to solve a problem, meet a need, or do a job they need done in their life. That's the premise of Jobs to Be Done Theory, developed by Harvard Business Professor Clayton Christensen.In this episode, Clayton Christensen Institute Chief of Staff Ruth Hartt, who's a former opera singer, joins Aubrey to talk about the Jobs to Be Done framework through an arts lens to better market to new audiences.Ruth also shares examples from the wild — real classical music ads done right and wrong — as she unpacks Jobs to Be Done Theory. If you want to see the visuals Ruth talks about, you can watch that part of the conversation here.Visit Ruth's website and subscribe to her arts marketing hall of fame at https://www.cultureforhire.com/.

Really working, looking after our members and working on our member portal. We're sitting up doing a bit of behind the scenes stuff, which is kind of contrary to the advice I'm actually going to be giving today, so I kind of got to look myself in the mirror for this one.Anyway, back onto the topic. So on the topic, obviously the last few months have been a little different, a bit crazy for some, and for the most part, I feel people have at least mentally moved on. I don't want to say move on and I don't want to take for granted where you're at and what situation you're facing. I know for us in Perth, things have been back to normal for a long time. That's us. We're just lucky for where we live, and I know for our clients in Queensland, they've been doing great. New Zealand as well. I know there are some spots where you're still facing restrictions and lock downs and crazy stuff.So I know it's not an even play for everyone, but whatever the situation is, I feel there has been a mental shift, at least. Whether that is people are used to the situation or things are sort of starting to look up for the better. So that comes down to the sip and it comes down to this question. “When was the last time you repeated something that worked in the past?” This is something actually we did with … and we've been doing this as restrictions have lifted wherever our clients have been at. The first thing that we've actually done is we just looked at what worked in the past and hit repeat. That could be on Facebook ads, just looking at your Facebook ads and looking, “All right. Well, what type of ads were working prior to COVID and the pandemic?” and we just hit reactivate...
How can a martial arts school attract more prospective students? Gordon has his marketing conversion funnel that he uses in his MA school. In this episode, he dives deep on its benefits and the levels included in it. There are four parts of the funnel. From top to bottom, they are: attention, prospect conversion, serve, sell & close, and last, service. This is a very strategic tool that dojos can utilise. We’re in a tough time right now, let’s ensure our presence is bigger than ever. Discover more about the martial arts marketing conversion funnel today on the Martial Arts Business Podcast. KEY TAKEAWAYS Attention – Marketing Online & Offline, Communication Send email newsletters and post quality content regularly on your social media platforms. These will give visuals to your company. Communicate with previous and current clients, aside from the new prospects. You will never know who might need your services again. Prospect Conversion – Talk, Engage, Communicate, Build Rapport Once you get their attention, there’s a possibility that they’d ask for more information. Grab the opportunity to be presentable during this recruitment process. Engage and build a strong rapport with them. First impressions last in the business, remember that. Serve, Sell, Close – Service, Classes, Experience, Value If they decided already that they want to try your service, then congratulations on that accomplishment! But before patting yourself on the back, ensure that you CAN and you will give them a great service. Make it memorable and worth their time and money. Service – Talk, Engage, Communicate, Build Rapport Provide an excellent service so you can keep them, and gain more! Most likely, it’s from them that you’ll get great feedback and reliable recommendations. BEST MOMENTS “People are consuming content at a faster rate than ever.” “We’re in a busy world. We have to remember that people don’t take actions right away.” “Their marketing gets attention and triggers an inquiry but what they don’t do is log the inquiries of everybody.” “Your business starts from the attention you get, the marketing, and the exposure to your brand.” VALUABLE RESOURCES The Business of Martial Arts by Gordon Burcham ABOUT THE HOST Gordon Burcham is a best-selling author, 3 x World martial arts champion and award-winning Martial arts school owner.

Though I love to travel, there’s no place like my home in Missouri. I was born and raised just north of Kansas City, and being a Midwest girl, I believe in hard work and authenticity. I’ve always been fascinated with people and I’m the kind of person who strikes up a friendly conversation with the cashier at the grocery store, or the guy standing next to me in a long line. When I got to college and discovered that you can actually get a degree in communicating effectively with other human beings (who knew?), I couldn’t get signed up fast enough! Heading into my senior year, I had the crazy idea of becoming a TV advertising executive, so I landed an internship at a nearby cable station. One day, a producer asked me to read the script for a commercial and I suddenly discovered my passion for voice over! That was 10 years ago, and now here I am, recording in my home studio or with real people in their Kansas City area studios. When I’m not behind a microphone, I still hone my skills regularly by reading to my four young children or watching HGTV with my husband; when you’re in voiceover, the commercials become a lot more interesting! I love meeting new people through social media, so feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn, Facebook, or Twitter. I’m half right-brained/half left-brained so, from me, you get the best of both worlds. I love pretty things, but I’m happiest when they are neatly ordered. You could say my world points to ordered chaos. In fact, my five—yes you read that right, five—children are all budding artists. They take after me in creativity; the ordered part, well, we’re working on that. Odds & Ends I have my Masters in Arts Marketing and Development. I love Pinterest; looking at pretty is a great way to spend an afternoon. I still use paper to-do lists, especially in stylish notebooks. My heart skips a beat when I check something off on my to-do list. I LOVE WHAT I DO! And, my goal is that you feel the same way about your work. So . . . Are you ready to expand your business with a greater digital presence? You can focus on what you love, and hand off the Newsletter, Pinterest board, revamped Website, or Social Media Management to someone who lives, eats and breathes Digital Marketing.
