Notes from Chris
Episode 2002
Today we hear from a yoga teacher who decides to offer a class at a nearby community center. It went well, except for one problem: she offered the class by donation, and guess what happened? That’s right, it didn’t go well. To avoid featuring her on Failure Friday, what can we do to turn this ship around? In situations where your primary or only means of payment is by donation, are there things you can do to increase those donations? The good news and the answer is: absolutely! Let’s get on the mat and work it out…"I'm a yoga teacher and have been hosting a weekly yoga night at my local community center. I've done it for three weeks now, and last week more than fifteen people came. The class is donation-only, but this brings me to the problem: almost no one donates. In fact, in the first two classes, I had two people pay a small amount, but in the last class, no one did. I know that they could afford at least something, but I don't want to be pushy. Is there a way to gently encourage more donations so that I'm not always teaching for free?"Listen to today's episode to learn more...
