Cherise: How to Hire a Top-Notch Manager

Hiring the right manager for your studio is kinda like getting married. In a perfect world, the partnership lasts forever.  

Because let’s face it, your studio manager is THE face of your studio. 

They’re the ones who’ll lead your team, be responsible for retaining members, and help you achieve your revenue goals. 

And today, Studio Grow Consultant, Cherise, dished out on everything from recruitment to extending an offer, and everything in between. 

Cherise drops some serious insights on outlining job responsibilities (including daily ones), writing job descriptions that speaks to your ideal candidate, why you need to ‘hire slow and fire fast’, what red flags to look out for during the interview process, and how setting realistic goals and accountability while extending an offer will set you up for success. 

If you’re on the market for a new studio manager, add this episode to your rotation this week!

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • The most common issues studio owners are having when it comes time to hire a manager 
  • Why the job posting is so important, and the crucial things that absolutely need to be in it

  •  What happens when you hire out of desperation…
  • Where to find the best candidates for your next managerial role {and it’s not always online!}
