    The Playbook System That Grows Your Business While You Rest
    Jun 9 2026
    How Rod and Jenny went from "close the doors" to a near million-dollar run rate in six months, and the playbook system that now lets them holiday while the business grows. 👉 Want the playbook that gets work off your plate? Grab the Team Handbook Builder GPT: https://bit.ly/p-team-handbook-builder Follow Geronimo Unfiltered Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube: @GeronimoUnfilteredOfficial Instagram: @thegeronimoacademy Most owners think a holiday is a money problem. It's not. It's that the business only works when you're the one running it. Rod and Jenny owned a calisthenics gym in Newcastle. In debt, burnt out, doing everything themselves. Jenny gave Rod an ultimatum: profitable by December, or they close. Six months later they're planning a two-week holiday they call the Japan test. The goal isn't survival while they're gone. It's growth. Ryan breaks down exactly how they did it. The real order of operations, not the highlight reel. In this episode you'll hear: - Why a holiday is a team problem, not a revenue problem - The order Rod and Jenny built their team in, and why sales came first - What a playbook is and how to write one anyone can run in seven days - Why splitting sales from rollovers converts higher - Why hiring a salesperson feels wrong and is your highest-leverage move - How systems beat the "no one does it as well as me" trap - What actually triggers the owner-to-CEO shift - What the Japan test is and how to know you're ready for one Chapters: 00:00:00 Intro and the Japan test 00:03:00 Meet Rod and Jenny: close-the-doors to turnaround 00:05:40 The core constraints holding them back 00:06:30 What a playbook actually is 00:07:30 The trust barrier and letting go 00:09:10 The owner-to-CEO shift 00:11:00 Level two: buying back your time 00:13:50 Mapping the million-dollar team 00:15:25 Why they hired the salesperson first 00:16:00 Owning the rollover number 00:17:45 The dual converter formation 00:20:30 Why sales and rollovers can't be one role 00:22:00 The wins start landing 00:23:40 Six months, start to finish 00:25:00 Your next three steps If you want more like this, go back to "How Newstrength Went From 'Good Enough' to a $1M Run Rate."

Jess and I took over the pod to break down everything we coach our clients on about marketing a gym or studio in 2026. She's nine years in the industry, seven with us, and helps manage over five million dollars in ad spend a year. We can tell an owner's ads are broken without looking at a single metric. This episode is how you spot the same ten things we spot, and what to do instead. Here's the uncomfortable truth: your ads probably look beautiful and convert nobody. The generic, talk-to-everyone, free-trial playbook is dead. You've got 1.7 seconds to stop the scroll, and in a trust recession, polished reads as fake. The fix is getting so specific it's almost uncomfortable, and using language you already have in your DMs and sales calls. In this episode you'll hear: - Why the old generic ad playbook stopped working in 2026 - The offers quietly killing your lead quality - How to build a hero narrative and why a demographic isn't an avatar - The avatar 5x50 framework we give away free - The raw, face-to-camera content converting right now - The only two Meta metrics that matter and the benchmarks to hit - Short vs long copy and why creative beats the buttons you press - The three action steps to start with if your ads are broken Chapters: 00:00:00 What's different about studio marketing in 2026 00:01:22 The old way: generic, polished, and dead 00:02:53 The offers killing your lead quality 00:06:34 The three coaching conversations we have every day 00:07:12 Building a hero narrative so specific it's uncomfortable 00:08:23 Why a demographic is not an avatar 00:10:52 Why raw and unfiltered beats polished right now 00:12:46 The face-to-camera content that's actually working 00:15:08 The IDEA copywriting framework 00:16:30 Short copy vs long copy 00:19:28 The only two Meta metrics that matter 00:22:07 The benchmarks you need to hit 00:23:04 Where to start if your ads are broken 00:25:24 Step one: get clear on your avatar 00:25:43 Step two: ad copy and creative 00:27:49 Step three: get comfortable on camera 00:29:50 Your first move and the free Avatar 550 framework If this one got your head spinning in the best way, go deeper: listen to 10x Your Leads in 2025: Why Your Ads Aren't Working (And What To Do Instead) next, it's one of our most downloaded episodes for a reason.

    Want to know where your studio is quietly leaking members? Book a free 15-minute studio check-up and I'll show you the quick wins hiding in your member experience: https://bit.ly/p-your-studio-check-up Follow Geronimo Unfiltered so you never miss an episode: Spotify Apple Podcasts Subscribe to our YouTube The Geronimo Academy IG 600 members. Four studios. Zero paid ads. Kat from Good Times Pilates breaks down the exact seven-step experience every new member moves through before they touch a reformer. I'll be honest, this one broke my brain a little. Kat has built Good Times to 600 members and four studios in under eight years, and almost none of it came from ads or a referral program. Her edge isn't a clever offer. It's a seven-step experience that makes people feel like they found her on their own, makes them feel seen the moment they walk in, and sends them home better than they arrived. We mapped the whole thing out, step by step, so you can run it on your own studio this week. In this episode you'll hear: Why Good Times treats itself as a lifestyle brand, not a Pilates studio The seven-step member experience that runs before a single first class How to make new members feel like they discovered you organically The welcome message and community guidelines that set people up to succeed What a five-star arrival and first-class check-in actually look like The post-class moment and follow-up that turn one visit into a habit Why niching down hard grew the business instead of shrinking it The "pretend you're a client" audit to run on your own studio this week The real referral numbers behind 600 members Chapters 00:00:00 600 members, no ads, no referral program 00:01:48 The right people find you (lifestyle brand, not a Pilates studio) 00:06:42 Why do you exist? Stand for something 00:09:22 Business by design: why niching down grew the studio 00:12:43 The 7-step member experience, start to finish 00:12:45 Step 1: The welcome message that sets people up for success 00:16:30 Step 2: The tours and what to expect 00:17:08 Step 3: The arrival experience 00:20:33 Step 4: How they enter the room 00:21:30 Step 5: What the teacher does for a first-timer 00:25:00 Step 6: The post-class moment 00:25:56 Step 7: The follow-up that closes the loop 00:28:23 Why no callbacks, no ads, no compromise 00:29:12 Where to start: pretend you're a client 00:30:42 The real referral numbers behind 600 members If this one hit home, listen to "How Kye Made His Studio a Second Home + Created a Membership Base FULL of Organic Leads" next. It's the same organic-growth playbook from a different operator.
