    How Kye Made His Studio a Second Home + Created a Membership Base FULL of Organic Leads
    Jan 7 2025
    What if the secret to tripling your revenue wasn’t about working harder… but working smarter? I’ve been talking a lot about consistency on the pod lately, and here’s the truth: you don’t need a million shiny strategies or the fanciest gear to level up your studio. The most successful gym owners aren’t unicorns with secret superpowers. They’re just laser focused on nailing the basics and doing it consistently. Kye, AKA Big Bro, and owner of G3 Narellan is living proof. His journey shows that success isn’t some smooth, uphill climb. It’s about grinding through the tough spots, fixing what’s broken, and staying committed to the process. In this episode, Kye breaks down his blueprint for growth, and trust me, it’s gold. You’ll hear: The most efficient way to build a team that lives and breathes your gym’s culture How to build a member base that’s driven by referrals What it takes to create a studio that feels like a second home for members How Benny could tell by the numbers that Kye would TRIPLE his revenue in a year Why you should consider maximising your ONE studio rather than becoming a multi … and a whole lot more Want to connect with Kye?

  • How to Design a Business (and Life) That Works FOR You in 2025

    How to Design a Business (and Life) That Works FOR You in 2025
    Dec 31 2024
    Are you running your business, or is your business running you? Every year, I meet studio owners hitting impressive targets but still feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and even burned out. Why? Because they’re chasing goals without setting the terms of how they want to live. Every other podcast is releasing New Years goal setting episodes right now, but I’m not going to do that. Instead, I’m teaching you how to build a business, and life… exactly how you want it. Remember – everything is either by default or by design. 2025 is the year that you’re doing everything on your own terms. We’re covering: Why most business owners are stuck in “busy mode” and how to get time BACK How to identify the one goal that will make the BIGGEST impact on your life and business Why work/life balance is a myth and what you should focus on instead The one daily habit that will make achieving your goals inevitable (+ why most people miss it) How to create a “not-to-do” list and say no without feeling guilty … and a whole lot more If you want to find out how to turn your vision into a reality - DM me ‘achievement’ at @hey.doza.
