Speaker: Maru Trimmer, Yoga teacher, Maru Trimmer Yoga

Describe what your yoga business was like before working with Brockell

Maru Trimmer: Hi, I am Maru Tremor and I am a yoga teacher. I have been a yoga teacher for the last 10 years, serving mainly private clients and also to small groups from my private yoga studio that I have at home as a yoga teacher. I also used to work at four different local gyms here in the area that I live. One of my challenges that I had before I started working with Brockell was that during the pandemic, When the gym's closed, I ended up working only with one of the gyms because we were able to teach virtually. And I had to close my yoga studio here at home. I transitioned into virtual. But the problem was that some of my clients are not comfortable with the technology. Therefore I ended up only with two private clients. And then I opened virtually. And unfortunately the numbers that I was getting in my classes were very small numbers. Therefore my struggle was on how to get more people in.

Maru Trimmer: And that put a little bit of a sense of doubt and insecurity, not knowing whether maybe I was charging too much, maybe I was not being good enough. And that was my problem before I started working with Brockell. l low count in my classes as well as difficulties with the packaging and the pricing in my yoga studio.

What has it been like to work with Brockell? What is your favorite part?

Maru Trimmer: It has been a great experience to be working with Brockell. Personally, I'm loving my experience, Brockell is knowledgeable, it's professional and one of the things that I personally love about her is her energy and that is the reason why I decided to go ahead and move forward with her program because when we had our one on one consultation, the energy was there and I really liked that. One of my favorite things about our program and what we do is our communication. I feel that I can trust, I feel that I can be vulnerable at the same time that she's really good at listening to the things that I bring, she gives great suggestions, great feedback, but at the same time respects where I'm coming from, if there is something that it's not going to work and I love that honesty is key and I feel safe working with her.

What successes have you had since we began working together? What is your business like now?

Maru Trimmer: My successes have been very visible and we have been able to measure it right away since the beginning when I started working with Brockell, one of the first one that had me jumping of the chair was that the following day after we signed up the contract to work together, I received the opportunity to work at corporate level and I had never done that before. Therefore I did not know how to charge for it, I did not know how to present it in a way that it would be a good rate in exchange for the service that I was providing, Brockell came in right away to help me decide and she guided me in a way that she helped me to make the decision for what the rate was going to be and at the same time taught me how to do it and that was great because that was one of the challenges that I was having and I needed to really come through and make that decision. Therefore the following day after that, one of the things that happened is that I had a contract, a corporate contract signed for $1,500. So that was very exciting. Then another thing that happened to me after the following month was that the gym where I was working, decided to close that was my main income. Therefore that was an opportunity that was being presented to me and I saw it so I took it, I opened my, my home studio again, open to the public and I invited all those members from that studio to follow me and come to continue receiving here at my private yoga studio and with that Brockell was very helpful. She helped me to put together the pricing the packages that I was going to offer to the groups as well as the private sessions and how we're going to be packaging those sessions instead of just saying you can have one private or you can do just a drop in.

Maru Trimmer: I'm really happy with the results so far.

Maru Trimmer: I have already gained back my investment with Brockell That's really exciting. One of the things that has changed from working all these, these three months with Brockell doing her program and the videos and all the training is my mindset. I have been positive and my mindset has always been a go getter but my money mindset was not there. I really needed to change the chip, I needed to change the energy and the moment that I turn it and I took that button and turned it, it really changed and it made a big difference in how the energy is flowing and how it's so much easier for me to decide pricing packaging and put it out there to people.
