Setup your most Successful Holiday sale Ever

Watch me as I breakdown exactly how schools are making $10k, 20k, and even $100k in a single day without selling out or having to stock massive inventories
My holiday Sale used to *STINK*
(Seriously, just terrible.)
I've owned a Martial Arts school since I was 20 years old. The first year I opened my school I attempted to have a Holiday Sale, and it was miserable. I think we sold an ornament and a poster. That's it. But I kept trying (and failing) year after year....
And it never got better. I put up all of the posters from our Martial Arts equipment supplier and followed their advice, but it just didn't work for me. I couldn't get my students to buy the trinkets and little things that I was supposed to be pushing, and even when I did, the profit margins were so tiny that shipping costs ate them up, and I was left with nothing to show for the effort.
Then one year, I sold a gold necklace from the supplier's catalog to a student. She loved it. I was happy, she was happy. Until it broke the next day, and I had to give a refund, which meant that when you factored in shipping, I actually LOST money.....
Hosted our Holiday Party (and sale) last Friday. It was a huge WIN for us. $27,000 gross.

It was too hard, so I gave up
A few years after I opened the doors to my school, I was done with holiday sales. I decided it was a whole lot of effort for nothing. I never heard anyone (except the martial arts equipment suppliers) talking about how good things were in the holidays. No other school owners were doing great with Holiday Sales.
We're the "Little Guys", And We All Have the Same Obstacles Keeping Us From Actually Succeeding at a Holiday Sale:
Lack of Decent Retail Profit Margins
When you factor in shipping, it’s hard to make any money at all on a single item. As a small business, you don’t have “economies of scale”, and no bargaining power with suppliers.
Lack of capital to buy merchandise to stock on the day of the sale
We’re “supposed” to buy a bunch of stuff for our students to browse, but do you really have extra money laying around to buy merchandise stock? I sure don’t.
Lack of students to actually buy things
If you’re Walmart, you have literally thousands of people desperate to get at your sale. If you’re a 40 student martial arts school like I was, your customer base is very limited.
A whole lot of "getting your hopes up" for nothing
Every year I kept hearing about how much I was “supposed” to be making, and I’d get my hopes up, and ever year, I’d fail. I hear that same story over and over from my school owner friends.
So year after year I let the Holidays pass me by, irritated that Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Toys-R-Us and everyone else had record years, and I was stuck on my couch, twiddling my thumbs.
Eventually I realized that I hadn't just "given up", I'd QUIT. When I realized this, it PISSED ME OFF, because I'm not a quitter, I'm a Black Belt. I wasn't sure how it would work out...
Finished our Holiday Sale this past week. Our best one yet at $51,519

Stop wasting time and energy following the wrong plan
With the Holiday Sale Blueprint, you can completely eliinate the guesswork and launch your most successful sale ever
BUT I WENT BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD, DETERMINED TO "CRACK THE CODE" FOR MARTIAL ARTS HOLIDAY SALES.
(Seriously, just terrible.)
I took an honest look at what my students REALLY NEEDED - and they didn't need cheap trinkets or santa clause ornaments.
They needed Gear, Uniforms, discounted tuition, and to feel connected to the school. But it had to be done with the right "mix" of internal advertising, product selection, tuition packing, etc.
Basically, it had to be done perfectly, or it was destined to fail.
I PUT TOGETHER A PLAN THAT WAS ALMOST EXACTLY OPPOSITE OF WHAT EVERYONE HAD BEEN TELLING ME TO DO, AND NERVOUSLY, LAUNCHED IT...
I was blown away when I saw people standing at the door at 9am (when the sale started), waiting to get into my school. That's how excited they were.
By the time the sale was over, I had grossed almost $21,000. When the doors finally locked, and I turned the lights off, I almost cried.
Knowing that I didn't have to lay awake at night over the Holidays, worrying about rent and utilities, and new enrollments and Christmas Gifts...I was overwhelmed. It had worked.
MY HOLIDAY SALE BLUEPRINT HAD WORKED! AND NOW I KNEW 2 THINGS:
SO I DECIDED TO PUT EVERYTHING I'D LEARNED INTO AN EASY TO FOLLOW, AFFORDABLE BLUEPRINT THAT CAN BE ACCESSED ONLINE.

I kept my expectations low, figuring we would most likely do about $5k with our existing student base. We ending up doing $11.1k and enrolled 5 new students. Very happy with this extra bump to close out November.
Thanks again William Pierce for the Holiday Sale blueprint. 🙏
