Join Studio Grow Consultant, Cherise Beardsley, as she answers one of our most requested questions: What does it mean to be a leader in your industry?
Now, that’s a big question y’all.
Being a leader in your industry means building a name and a reputation for yourself and navigating all that comes with it.
We wanted a guest whose studio had not just survived but thrived in saturated markets, someone who had ridden out all the different industry shifts and trends, and most importantly, someone who can tell you how you can apply the same strategies to your own studio biz and claim your spot as an industry leader.
That’s where Jessica comes in.
Meet Jessica Goldman, founder, and owner of All About Dance. Jessica always dreamt of sharing her passion for dancing with the world, and fifteen years ago, she fulfilled her dream by opening her own dance studio.
