Today I chat with Bryce from Dance Motion Marketing and we explore the ins and outs of dance studio marketing. What I enjoy about his approach is that its realistic and practical. Oftentimes marketing can be confusing and difficult, but once we break it down, we find that it's a few small shifts that can make a big impact on your number of new leads coming through your doors.
Bryce Conlan is a co-founder at Dance Motion Marketing and serial entrepreneur with a passion for helping leaders grow. His favorite thing is getting fired because a dance studio client is full and can’t take any more students… which happens more often than you’d think. In his spare time, Bryce enjoys a good whiskey, ice cream, and writing bios in the third person.
