    Most studio owners believe that hitting the 7-figure mark is the ULTIMATE definition of success.

    But here’s the thing –

    The real measure of success lies in your profit margins.

    AND in your ability to build a business model that brings in greater returns while taking less of your time and energy. 

    In today’s episode, we’re taking another look at 3 studios that consistently brought in 40-70% profit margins without ever hitting 7-figures. 

    Their secret? 

    They shifted their core business model to focus on what actually mattered – 

    Generating more revenue while building a sustainable lifestyle (that made time for rest, rejuvenation and family).

    Tune in to learn how replicable systems, a well-trained team, and a determination to work smarter (not harder) brought these studios some doggone hot success!

    Here’s what we’ll be talking about in this episode:

    • Why the million-dollar mark isn’t always the best measure of success 
    • What studios with over 50% profit margins look like 
    • What are ancillary services (and some powerful examples of successful studios)
    • Why your client numbers shouldn’t be your main measure of success
    • How to calculate the appropriate pay for your teachers, (and some red flags to always look out for)

    With grit and gratitude,

    Lisé
