Good morning! I'm writing you a quick message this morning to announce some changes with the newsletter.
A few years back, I decided to start sending out this newsletter nearly every day, on a Monday to Friday and sometimes Saturday frequency. I chose to do this to accomplish two goals:
- To get the martial arts business "stuff" floating around in my head down on paper. After three decades in the industry, I have a lot of knowledge about how to run profitable small schools, and I wanted to record it before it was lost or forgotten.
- To publish the best of that information in inexpensive books and reports.
To date, I've accomplished both goals. I've documented much of the information that had not yet been written down in my previous books, courses, and websites.
And, I managed to publish that information in a series of 12 books and reports on Amazon. And, I'm working on getting those titles sold elsewhere as well (Barnes and Noble, Kobo, the iBookstore, Tolino, and so on).
Now, I could continue to send you a newsletter five days a week. After writing my blog and newsletter for the last 15+ years, it's not hard for me to come up with new ideas for articles.
However, the amount of time it takes me to write an in-depth article series is a serious time commitment. Often, I spend two hours a day writing, editing, and sending this newsletter.
At the moment, it just doesn't make sense for me to dedicate that much time out of my work day to send out this free newsletter. So, for the conceivable future I'll be cutting back the frequency of the newsletter to one or two days per week.
Expect to receive this newsletter on Mondays, and sometimes Fridays from here on out. And if you need information to help you improve your dojo, I suggest you start by reading my series of inexpensive books and reports, which you can find on Amazon:
