Jill Craven on Building a Successful Cheer Gym
Description
StarStruck AllStars has enjoyed 7-17% growth every year since inception 10+ years ago.
Hear how founder, Jill Craven, built the business, including the importance of time management, continuous learning, and investing conservatively. In this episode:
- Jill & Penny discuss their friendship and the lessons learned together in their direct sales businesses including hacks like "move the matches", the DIN DIN Club, and Feel-Felt-Found. And how to adapt those to today's challenges.
- Before, during, and after, there was dance, choreography, dedication, and long hours. And children.
- Then came cheer and learning new skills while teaching them.
- Through it all, making kids feel seen, supporting students in building strength and resilience, work ethic, and friendships.
- Then there was the Patrick Swayze story.
- The neighbor who dropped in at 3am.
- And the awkward cheers. Ahhh... the 80's.
- Plus why we love our Rewined Subscriptions.
