Weekly Roundup - The ClassPass Excuse (And Other Lies Studio Owners Tell Themselves)

Welcome to the Weekly Roundup - a show powered by Artha Coaching. Is ClassPass really the problem? This week on The Weekly Roundup, that question sparks a much bigger conversation about the stories studio owners tell themselves when things aren't going the way they want. "We need more leads." "Our schedule is the problem." "People won't come if we change that class." "ClassPass is hurting our retention." But what if the data tells a different story? Josh, Terri, and Carol dig into why so many business owners make decisions based on assumptions, opinions, surveys, and fear instead of facts. From underperforming schedules to weak product definition to the subtle ways self-sabotage shows up in leadership, this episode is packed with hard truths and practical insights. Inside this episode: * * Why ClassPass is often an easy scapegoat—but rarely the real issue * * The scheduling mistakes that quietly cost studios money * * Why trying to please everyone usually backfires * * How unclear class offerings hurt retention and sales * * The surprising connection between fascia, marketing, and communicating value * * The four biggest signs you're sabotaging your own growth If you've ever found yourself overthinking, procrastinating, second-guessing decisions, or blaming external factors for internal problems, this conversation will hit close to home.
