Business Plan? What Business Plan?

I hear it all the time: “I don’t have a business plan… but, honestly, I don’t even have time to write one. I’m too busy RUNNING my business to worry about writing about it.”

And I get it.

When you’re in the thick of it…teaching classes, answering emails, dealing with parents, putting out fires. So, the idea of sitting down for hours with a blank document and the words “business plan” at the top feels impossible.

But here’s the painful truth: that’s usually the exact reason why you feel so overwhelmed in the first place. Without a plan, everything feels urgent. Every day is reactive. You’re running on adrenaline and guesswork, with no real North Star. That’s exhausting—and it’s not sustainable.

Now here’s the good news: you don’t have to figure this out alone. Inside the Martial Art MBA Collective, we walk through the process of building your business plan together, step by step. It’s not just theory, and it’s not just you staring at a blank page. It’s a guided process with a small group of other martial arts school owners who are in the same spot you are.

We slow things down just enough so you can get clarity on where you’re headed. And the best part? Once you have that roadmap in place, you’ll actually feel less busy. You’ll stop spinning your wheels. You’ll make decisions faster, with more confidence.

So if you’ve been putting off your business plan because you’re “too busy,” maybe it’s time to try a different approach. Hit pause. Step back. And let’s build the foundation together.
