This episode is me speaking from experience on a few topics so hopefully you can avoid stepping on the same rakes as I did.

I start by talking about an IG post I saw where a gym was asking it's members if it "failed" by closing over the holdidays. The short answer is "yes" if that person wanted to come train. Then I go a little deeping into how to handle bigger policy changes and lastly not being afraid to fail when making new offerings/events etc.

With 30 years of Jiu Jitsu experience under his belt Eli does everything from instructionals to seminars and private lessons. Eli saw the need for online Jiu Jitsu content before the big online boom and has since become a successful online name due to his consistency, persevernce and approachable teaching style.

We also go into some detail about his back ground (which is an impressive lineage), his influences coming up through the belt ranks and his teaching style.

I think in systems and I love structure. I also find it really helpful to create a common language to talk about business, the same way we talk about Jiu Jitsu. That common language/understanding helps move everyone forward.

And so I made this episode in hopes that I could share some of that language and structure about the business side of Jui Jitsu. I also want it to make it easy for Jiu Jitsu academy owners to self identify what areas of their business need the most attention and expalin these systems well enough that simple action can be taken.
