When summer rolls around, some school owners rejoice while other wait in grim preparation for what is often their worst months of the year.

So what makes the difference? For the most part, it’s planning ahead and adapting to the circumstances.

And, this involves nothing more than making sure you have some extra income generators running over the summer months, and also having some killer summer specials going to attract new students all summer long.

Summer Income Generators

By far, the best summer income generators are summer camps. That’s the good news.

The bad news? They are a ton of work! Even so, without them you may find yourself in dire straits come the end of summer. That’s why I suggest school owners knuckle under and learn to enjoy running summer camps each year.

The key to running successful summer camps is having a proven plan to follow. Planning and organization are key, and will make the difference between making tons of extra cash over the summer or working your fingers to the bone for little extra gain.

Traditionally, summer has been one of the most difficult times of year for most martial arts schools. Thankfully, however, savvy studio owners have developed new ways to actually generate more income over the summer months than they do during the other months of the year.

Testimonial: “This is awsome. I can’t put it down. I have read many articles and books on MA school ops and they mostly say the same thing, “BIGGER IS BETTER”. But you have opened my eyes to new ideas. Great book!” Pete DeCarlo Pennsylvania, USA
