90-day online marketing plan
Lotus Path Yoga
Lotus Path Yoga will fill its mats by turning searches for yoga classes near me into first visits, with a clear beginner path and a timetable anyone can read on a phone.
More visits to your shop · Under 100 US dollars a month
Your three priorities
Complete a Google Business Profile with your address, opening times, a link to the timetable and photos of the empty room, because people choosing a studio search on their phone and want to see where it is and what the room looks like.
Build a website that shows the next few classes at the top of the home page and has a beginner page, so a nervous first-timer can book without sending a message to ask.
Turn each first visit into a second one by greeting newcomers by name, asking permission to send a reminder and inviting them to a beginner course or a regular class.
