Is Your Fan Page Prepared for Facebook’s Mandatory Timeline Changes?

On March 30th, Facebook is changing how they display your businesses fan page on their site.

Like your personal profile that recently changed to timeline, your business page will now follow in it’s footsteps.

Are you ready for all the changes?

Facebook Timeline Overview

The good news is that before March 30, you can preview the page and see what things will look like to help wrap your head around the changes. Just login into your personal account, then click into your business page. You’ll see a call out box about Timeline at the top where you click “preview.” Don’t worry, you can change with a click of link (before March 30) so you know what things will look like. You will see how much digital real estate is being dedicated to the cover photo, profile photo and timeline.

“On March 30, 2012, all Facebook Pages will get a new design.” Love Facebook

Here’s What’s Changing

  • Cover Image – The new cover image replaces your default welcome tab. You no longer can choose a custom tab as a welcome screen to prompt people to “like” you page before interacting with it. And, there are rules in place on what you can and can’t do with that image (like adding a call to action on it). Dimensions are 850 x 315 pixels.
  • Profile Photo - The original maximum profile image size before Timeline was 200 x 600 pixels. With Timeline, dimensions are restricted to 125×125 pixels.
  • App Thumbnails – You can add thumbnail images to every app you have associated with your page. This is a good exercise in branding as you can make them all look consistent. Dimensions are 111 x 74 pixels.
  • Milestones - You can now “go back in time” and add “milestones” for activities or events including important dates (when you were founded, etc), photos, messages or video. This is a wonderful way to tell your story in an interactive way.
  • Post Highlights - You can make a post take up a whole row by “highlighting” it if. Just click the pencil in the upper right corner when you hover over it.
  • Post Pinning – You can now pin posts to the top of the page. This could be a welcome message, photo from belt test, a special message, video,  or promotion for an upcoming event. Anything you want to highlight and draw attention to when someone first visits.
  • Photo Positioning – You can adjust the positioning of any photo in your timeline that you or someone else publishes to your page. Just click the pencil graphic in the upper right and go from there.
  • Photo Strip – The photo strip of that had 5 of your latest photos is now gone. However, the photo button link is still very prominent and shows your most recent photo.
  • Wall Conversations – Conversations on the wall are now split up into two columns making them slightly harder to follow but as adoption of the new features becomes the norm, more will get used to it.
  • Messaging – I love this update! Facebook Pages can now message other business pages. Not only that, but people can now message your Facebook page instead of having to just leave a post on your page for all to see.

If you didn’t know about this change, you still have a little time before your new page format goes live on March 30, 2012.

If you haven’t yet created a page, be sure to do this for your martial arts school as it’s a great way to keep in touch with your existing and past students as well as engage new ones.

As with any change to Facebook, it’s a good idea to read through their policies so you don’t inadvertently break one of their policies and get your page banned.

So, who has a Facebook fan page they have updated? Share a link to it in the comments below!

5 Simple Ideas to Take Your Website to the Next Level

Having a website that is consistently sending you leads while you sleep isn’t something that only big martial arts school chains can have. You can, too. If you’re stuck with your website and not sure what to do next to generate more leads, these five tips will help you get going again so you can take your website to the next level.

Add a Blog

A Blog is a way to add content to your website on a regular basis. It not only helps you to generate regular content that the search engines love and is a huge part of search engine optimization, you also give visitors a reason to keep coming back to your website. Think of a blog as a way for you to regularly and frequently share information about your school including news, events, training tips, videos, photos and more. Start with doing one post a week and build up your schedule as needed from there. My favorite blog software is made by WordPress, which is free. In fact, this entire site is powered by WordPress.

Add a Monthly Newsletter

A monthly email newsletter, when combined with a blog, is a powerful combination that can translate into new students for your martial arts school. By capturing a persons name and email, you can begin emailing people on a regular basis whenever you have information to share. Add an email capture form that uses a strong headline, copy and call to action along with your form for optimal success. Sending Martial Arts Newsletters can be delivered using a service like Aweber.com (that’s who I use).

Add Social Media Buttons

If your martial arts school is on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube and you’re not mentioning it on your website, it’s time to make things more public. By adding social media buttons for each of your social profiles on each page of your website, you’re naturally going to get more traffic to those pages and get more fans and followers. Some add these to their header, sidebar or footer.

Add a Squeeze Page

We all want more leads from the same amount of traffic we’re getting. One way to make that happen is with a squeeze page. The sole purpose of a squeeze page is to capture a name, email and sometimes a phone number. They are sparse without a lot of distraction and are usually comprised of a headline, photo or video, bullet points, call to action and an optin form. It’s important to test all of these variations to see what works best for your website. Squeeze Pages are most often used when you have a special offer like a trial program, free ebook guide, an email series or exclusive videos you’re offering in trade for a person’s name and email. Having a good squeeze page can improve your site’s conversion by 30% or more.

Add Videos

If you have videos you’ve made and posted to your YouTube channel but haven’t yet add them to your site, it’s time to embed them onto your site and get them working harder for you. These can be placed on the home page, a video page or sidebar. If you’re going to build a squeeze page, you can create a new custom video for it. If you don’t have any videos yet, just about every computer comes with video editing software these days. Your videos don’t have to be Hollywood productions, just convey the message. Having videos that are shot on a shoestring budget that contain great information and personality can make you seem more genuine and authentic than those that cost a lot to produce.

Negative Reviews in Local Search Results May Be Killing Your Online Reputation

At one time or another, we’ve all had a bad experiences with a service or business that makes us never want to go back. Ever.

It’s happened.

It’s going to happen again.

Now, if it happens to you, it happens to your customers.

And, they may have just had one of those dreaded experiences at your martial arts school.

Nowadays, people turn to online local directories like Google Places or Yelp to share their experience as a warning to others.

You can choose to ignore negative reviews or respond to them head on.

The choice is yours.

How often do you monitor your reviews online?

Having positive reviews has always been important but having positive online review is absolutely critical in today’s online obsessed world.

But what do you do when you have even one negative review in a sea of positive reviews? What do you do when you have more negative reviews than positive?

You can’t just ignore the problem and hope it goes away.

It won’t.

And it can (and will) only get worse.

You have to respond and try and make things right.

By saying nothing, you’re basically telling everyone who reads this you don’t care enough to respond and that person (more importantly) is right.

Either way, it’s bad for business.

It’s Time to Audit Your Reviews

If you haven’t done this in a while for your martial arts school, I highly recommend you take a look at what’s being said and what kind of rankings you are receiving. I hope you’re pleasantly surprised to find all positive reviews.

However, you might be surprised to find out that you have unhappy former students leaving one star reviews with a laundry list of all that’s wrong and evil with your business for your potential future students to read.

While there is no real way to calculate the true impact to your business, I think we can agree that it definitely hurts you. And bad.

What if the following example was your martial arts school?

Imagine what it would be like to load up your page and find that you have multiple negative reviews for your martial arts school.

That’s probably going to happen this martial arts school’s owner someday.

Check this out…

If you look at the red circles above, you’ll see that potential customers indicated that those reviews helped them. I don’t know about you, but I read those to mean “Hell no! I’ll never ever, never ever train here. Ever!” and can’t picture the person saying “Oh hell yes! I cant wait to send my kids here and pay all those hidden fees!”

Sadly, from the looks of things, this owner hasn’t ever looked at these reviews.

You can tell because they haven’t responded to them. Either they don’t care (which would be shocking), they don’t want to respond, or they don’t know they can respond (which they can as a verified owner of the page).

I’m hoping for the later but you never know.

What do you think?

I really want to know what you think about this and how you would handle it.

If this was your business, how would you respond? Would you take the same approach as this martial arts school owner and say nothing? Has this ever happened to you? How did you respond? Share with our community in a comment below!

How to Add a Facebook Like Box to Your Website

If you’re looking to get more people to “like” your Facebook Fan Page for your martial arts school, this post will give you an idea on how to do that for yourself simply and easily.

Why create a Facebook Like Box?

If you’ve visited Marketing Martial Arts lately, you’ve probably seen an example of this in the right hand column. I added this to the site a while back and have enjoyed seeing an increase in the amount of followers on Facebook each and every month. It’s become one of the best ways to get people to like my page that I’ve found and wanted to share the idea with you so you knew how to add it to your site, too.

I think this works so well because it provides “social proof” that other people like your page. Social proof is an important marketing concept and is one you should definitely add to your marketing arsenal. Think of these almost like positive testimonials of your business.

Not only that, but by adding the Facebook Like Box, you’ll be able to make it a “one click” process for someone to like your page from your website without having to go to Facebook to do it.

How to Get a Like Box

Getting a Facebook Like Box is simple – visit the Developers Page for the Like Box on Facebook then complete the Like Box generator form. Once done, you can cut and paste it into the code of your website.

You have a lot of choices on how the like box is presented, including:

  • Facebook Page URL – Add your Facebook URL here
  • Width – Enter in the desired pixel width of your like box.
  • Height – You can either leave this blank or your can enter in the pixel height if your website’s design only allows a certain amount of vertical space.
  • Color Scheme – Choose from “light” or “dark” options.
  • Choose Faces – This is an on/off switch that lets you display a sample of the people who already like your page along with their profile photo.
  • Border Color – Add the hexadecimal color of your choice for your border, if you want one.
  • Show Stream – This is an on/off switch that lets you display your posts from from your Facebook page.
  • Show Header – This on/off switch either automatically adds “Find us on Facebook” text at the top or removes it.

If you’re looking for a smaller solution, you can also add the Facebook Like Button instead. Either way, it’s a very similar process.

Does anyone else use this on their website? What results have you seen? Share with our community in a comment below!

Of all the email software companies out there, I use AWeber.com and have been with them since 2005. As an internet marketer, I sign up for a ton of email lists.

Making the Most of Black Friday and Cyber Monday

Black Friday and Cyber represent some huge shopping days that can help your martial arts school boost revenue and get some new students while you’re at it.

Do you already have promotions already in place? Are you ready to capitalize on this shopping season? If not, here are some ideas to get you started.

Don’t Leave Money on the Table

Remember to create deals for both existing students as well as potential new students. I know a lot of martial art schools who only do one over the other. Don’t leave money on the table! Make it easy for both groups to buy from you.

For existing students:

  • Create a shopping event sale. Send your students and parents an invitation to come in and save on merchandise, private lessons, gift certificates or upgrades. Be sure to clearly state all the particulars including the who, what, where, when and why’s that will motivate your students to come in. Give them reason to spend more by creating a contest that automatically enters them into a contest for a prize. For example, spend over $300 to enter to win an Apple iPad 2!
  • Sell gift certificates. Family members are always looking for gift ideas. Make it easy to buy from you and offer a “buy now” option on your website. You can also offer a discount on trial program packages to your students so they can give them as gifts to their friends, co-workers or family members for the holidays. Consider using PayPal buy now buttons as they make it incredibly easy to add to your website and accept money online.

For potential new students:

  • Offer substantial savings on your trial program. This is where you can really pick up some momentum for the New Year. There are a lot of different ways to go about this including discounts, free bonuses, two for one, etc. Be sure to steal one these 17 offer ideas for your promotion. If you need help with other promotional offer ideas, steal one of these.
  • Gift certificates. Give the gift of self defense! By making it simple to buy trial program gift certificates on your website, you’re enabling people who don’t even go to your school to help spread the word.

Be sure to spread the word by updating:

  1. Facebook – Update your logo graphics, write posts or even create an event if you’re having one.
  2. Website – Create graphics and a page that you link to from every page on your site. Make it easy to find.
  3. Flyers – Create a flyer and canvas locally. Don’t forget to post them within your school and give a stack to your students to hang up at work.
  4. Email – If you have an email list (if not, check out aweber.com email solutions) send out an email to your list.

Good luck with your Black Friday and Cyber Monday efforts!

Do You Know Your Conversion Rate?

Like any business, running a martial arts school is a numbers game. And, one of the most important numbers you can keep track of is your conversion rate.

Knowing what your conversion rate — and then improving it — is certainly important to the vitality of your martial arts business.

Knowing your conversion rate gives you a tangible statistic that you can proactively manage and helps you understand if changes to your site helps increase it or decreases it. Before you can improve your conversion rate, you have to first know what it is.

In order to calculate your conversion rate, you need to have some kind of tracking software on your website like Google Analytics. It will give you all the information you need to calculate your conversion rate.

How to Calculate Your Conversion Rate

Here is the formula for calculating your conversion rate on your website:

Total Conversions/Total visitors X 100 = Conversion Rate

“Conversions” refers to how many people have taken an action you want to measure. This could be a newsletter sign up, trial program sign up, request for more information, contact form submission, etc.

“Total visitors” refers to the total number of visitors you’ve had on your website during a given period of measurement. I usually look at this stat on a monthly basis.

For example, if I had 10 people in a one month period sign up for my trial program email update offer and I had 1,000 people visit my website that month, my conversion rate would be 1%. If I improved my conversion rate and had 20 people sign up with the same amount of traffic, my conversion rate would be 2%.

Focus on Improving Conversion, Not Traffic

Improving your conversion rate means that for the same amount of traffic, you get more leads. More leads means more prospects you can potentially convert to paying members. The best part is that it doesn’t cost you any additional marketing expenditures to generate more leads because you’re getting more from the existing amount of traffic you already have.

A common mistake is to focus on getting more traffic instead of trying to improve ones conversion rate. The thinking there is that with more traffic, one will naturally get more sales by volume. I actually had a client tell me this a while back. They didn’t want to focus on making their process better because “it was too hard.” They told me they just wanted to cram more people through their existing process and it would work out on the back end.

I didn’t get it then and I still don’t get it to this day.

Unfortunately, that’s working harder, not smarter.

For example: If your conversion rate is 1% and you get 100 visitors you will get one lead. Now, if you can send two hundred people in that same period, you could get two leads.

Establish a Baseline

Before you can improve your conversion rate, you have to establish a baseline. Then you can begin testing things to help improve your conversion rate. Having a baseline will help you know if your tests are helping or hurting you.

In general, a really good conversion rate on a website is 2%. Yours may obviously vary but will at least give you some kind of gauge on where you’re at with your site.

One of the best ways to track conversions in Google Analytics is to set up a goal.

In its default state, Google Analytics tracks almost all of the information you need to determine your conversion rates. However, it does need to be modified a little to make it so you track specific “goals” like how many times someone got to your thank you page (the page someone sees after filling out your lead form). Setting up goals is simple. To learn step-by-step how to set up goals using Google Analytics, go to the source.

In future posts I will explain how you can improve your conversation rate.

So, how is your conversion rate measuring up?

How to Present Your Martial Arts Schedule

A few years ago, I wrote an article about the 8 pages every martial arts school’s website should have.

One of the components was about posting your class schedule.

If you offer a robust schedule, I recommend that you create a single page that has a simple grid that spells out your schedule by day, time, and program. Make this so easy an 5th grader could understand it. If you you only teach one or two days, you might just want to include your schedule on the frequently asked questions page.

If you have  have decided to post your class schedule you’ll want to make sure it’s something that doesn’t lead to confusion. Keep your calendar simple and informative. Don’t try and clutter it with tons of details.

Remember, the purpose of your calendar is so your prospects can see the variety of options you offer should they decide to join you martial arts school. By making it easy to follow and read, you are displaying a sense of professionalism and order about your business. If someone can’t follow your schedule and creates confusion, it could just as easily turn them away.

If you don’t have many class options available because you only teach certain days and times, it may be wiser not to publish it.

Here are some samples to help get your creative juices flowing:

  1. Inosanto Academy
  2. One World Self-Defense
  3. Lynxx Academy
  4. Tristar Martial Arts
  5. Gracie Academy
  6. Kovar’s Satori Academy of Martial Arts
  7. Combat Systems
  8. All Star Martial Arts and Fitness

12 Facebook Fan Page Ideas for Martial Arts School Owners

Do you have a Facebook fan page but are struggling with what to do with it to get more fans and get them commenting more?

It’s not as hard as you might think.

Here are 12 simple things you can do to spice up your fan page:

  1. Create an event.
    Creating events on Facebook is simple and is a great way to promote your next big seminar, summer camp, promotional ceremony and more. Events allow you to invite your students and parents, know if they accept or not, and provides an easy way to keep everyone in the loop. Not only that, but they are easy to share! Follow these instructions to create your own event.
  2. Share videos and photos.
    People love watching videos and looking at photos. You can share your own or highlight other people’s (see ideas #9 and #10 below). An example of this is could be sharing a link to a video of a bully caught on tape and how your program helps keeps kids safe from bully’s. Share photos from your classes, seminars, tests, etc. Additionally, you can share photos from your archives over the course of your training.
  3. Let them know what they missed.
    I started posting “what did you miss in class last night? You missed…” type messages a couple of months ago and have had a lot of people come up to me or comment that they’re bummed they missed class after reading my Facebook update. This can be a powerful tool to not only keep your existing students motivated but also gives a glimpse of what potential students can expect from your lessons.
  4. Share articles or blog posts.
    Do you write a blog? Have you written an article you can share? Add a link to your article and help share your content!
  5. Ask questions.
    Do you know what engages people more than just about anything? Questions do. You can ask trivia questions, true or false questions, fill in the blank, use a poll (new feature on Facebook) or open ended questions to start. I’ve seen a ton more interaction since implementing the use of questions on regular basis. Definitely something to try if you haven’t yet.
  6. Share famous or motivational quotes.
    Do a search for “Martial Arts Quotes” and you’ll find a ton you can share. I would only share one once a week.
  7. Share trivia.
    Post interesting factoids about your style, instructor, martial arts school, etc.
  8. Ask for reviews.
    Every business can benefit from reviews. And, it’s easy for you to add “reviews” to your Fan Page. You can also link them over to your Google Maps, Bing, Yahoo, Yelp, etc. page and ask them to review your martial arts school. Or, if you have a reviews form on your website, you could direct them there.
  9. Ask for photos.
    Ask your students and parents to upload their favorite photos. These can be from tournaments, belt tests, class, doing the splits, their highest kick, fund raisers, demos, etc.
  10. Ask for videos.
    Facebook allows you the ability to upload a video directly to their site or you can share a link from YouTube.com, Vimeo.com, etc. Just be sure to prompt people how to do it to make it simple.
  11. Post your coupons or deals.
    If you already provide coupons or have a special promotion, why not link people over to where they can find them? If you don’t have any yet, you can create your own in a post on Facebook and ask your fans to share them.
  12. Promote a contest.
    Once you have a decent following, run a contest to help bolster interactivity. Or, use a contest to help build your fan base. Either way, promoting a scavenger hunt, photo contest, video contest.  Note there are specific rules you must follow when running a contest on Facebook, but it is still easy to promote a contest.

If you don’t already have one for your martial arts school, learn how to set up a Facebook fan page here.

As for posting frequency, I usually post about one time a day on my Salt Lake City Utah Martial Arts Schools Facebook fan page. Sometimes twice a day, but not very often. You can overdo it so be careful not to overload your audience. It could potentially turn them off.

What other ideas would you add to this list to help martial arts school owners have a more interactive Facebook Fan Page?

“Creating a Facebook fan page for your martial arts school is something you can do to further help attract and drive additional traffic to your martial arts school.  It’s another great social media way to connect with your students, suspects, and prospects. And, Facebook fan pages are free to create and use.”

To create a fan page for your martial arts school follow these 7 easy steps!

2) Click “Advertising”

Once you’re logged into your account, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the “advertising” link.

3) Click “Pages”

Click on the “pages” link in the left hand column.

4) Click “Create Page”
