Outcome: Sign up a few students to another service (e.g. 1-2-1 yoga, yoga day, etc)
Purpose: Making a decent living from teaching yoga classes is extremely difficult unless you have 5 or more full classes each week. Promoting your other services and products will help increase your income.
Steps
step 1: Create a handout for your service (e.g. 1-2-1 yoga) and print.
Step 2: At the beginning of your next class briefly mention: "I have a special offer at the moment for 1-2-1 yoga sessions. If you're interested, please pick up a flyer from the table on the way out."
Step 3: At the end of the class, remind them about the handout.
Here are a few examples of yoga products you can create and sell...
Sell yoga holidays/retreats even if you personally don't have a yoga holiday/retreat. Contact someone who does and ask for a commission per person you send there way.
Sell personal development courses (contact someone who has a great looking course and ask for a commission per sale).
Sell unique clothing. Whatever you do, you must stand out from the crowd. Do not sell run of the mill yoga clothes. This can be a great excuse for going on holidays. My mum taught me this. She used to own a jewellery shop and would take 2 or 3 holidays abroad every year searching for new products for her shop.
Sell yoga products that are utterly unique. When you do that you're far more likely to attract customers from all over the world.
