If your studio limps into summer every year, bleeds through Christmas, then prays for a New Year miracle - you’re not alone. But you don’t have to cop another rinse-and-repeat.
This episode is a line in the sand. Ryan Fernance (the bloke who steered multiple F45s to the 300 Club through lockdowns) breaks down “Separation Season” - the next 90 days where the pros surge ahead and the dabblers burn out. No fluff. Just the boring, battleground basics that actually move the needle.
Here’s what we’re covering:
-The real reason studios spiral - and how to stop it at the source
-Why “boring is the battleground”: show up, sleep, macros… and business fundamentals
-The Green Line: grow by net +3 members per week (and why it saves your summer)
-Lead flow that works: 20 leads/week, call inside 5 minutes (1 minute = 300x pickup)
-Offers that profit from day one (ditch free/$7 trials) and convert 80% to full-price
-Your UVP: be “[Your Suburb] [Your Brand]”, speak to one avatar, one problem, one offer
-Seasonal strategy: spring push, Christmas survival, and rolling into the New Year miles ahead
… and a whole lot more
