I loved James post :
Entrepreneur.com wrote “…A martial arts school can be an expensive new business venture to set in motion. However, the average cost now paid by a student per year for martial arts training is in excess of $600. Providing the business could train 200 students per year, this would result in revenues exceeding $120,000, based on an average of $600 per year per student. Needless to say, this type of specialized instruction can be very financially lucrative. In addition to group training, one-on-one martial arts training is also becoming popular for the serious student who is prepared to pay $40 per hour or more for an intensive training session..” see Business Idea Center: Martial Arts
Ethan Willis and Randy Garn knew firsthand the need of many young owners for personalized guidance in starting and growing a business. This is the spark that led them to found Prosper Learning (Prosper Inc.), whose motto is, “Your life is your business . . . Making it Prosper is ours.”(see CNET Networks, Inc ref Provo company works to make clients Prosper Deseret News (Salt Lake City), Jun 26, 2005)”

Greetings Mr Ethan Willis,Ken Blanchard, Don Hutson
I received the new book last, Wednesday morning, another one of your Prosper customer service staff needs to be recognized for his quick and courteous response to my situation. I talked to Devin Willis who sent me his own copy!
I got a follow up call from his Manager Greg Wibur I thought I’d let you know by posting it here;0)
Thank You once again for your outstanding customer service team. Computers can be and are very frustrating for the everyday consumer, and it appears that you have a group of people that define their job as ” what they can do for the customer”.

I learned that the keys to running a martial arts school it takes the following :
The Four Pillars
1. Pillar 1: Sales Must Exceed Expenses
2. Pillar 2: Collect Your Bills
3. Pillar 3: Take Care of Your Customers
4. Pillar 4: Take Care of Your People
Devin was right in referring this book!
