All Star Martial Arts
Andrew opened his school during COVID with about 80 students and less than $10K/month. He'd tried other agencies with no results and felt stuck in one of the most competitive markets in Toronto. Over 5 years with Kin, he rebuilt his content strategy, dialed in his follow-up process, and scaled through every growth milestone. Today he runs over 1,000 students across two locations and is opening a third.
"When I started working with Kin, I would have been happy with just about any good result. I'd worked with other agencies before and they didn't deliver. But Kin was different. I knew it was a family business. I felt comfortable with the team. And the results speak for themselves."
— Andrew, All Star Martial Arts
One Martial Arts
Brannon is a third-generation martial arts business owner running two locations in San Francisco and Millbrae. As a veteran in the industry, he'd been burned by multiple agencies making empty promises. With Kin, he found a true partnership. Last year his two schools combined for just under $2M in revenue with 1,000+ active students. He now serves as both a partner school and a coach within the Kin community.
"I wish every school owner could be me. I wish every school owner could hang out with the team at Kin Creative, sit in the weekly meetings, and realize we're much more than a digital media company. We are truly a family of martial artists."
— Brannon, One Martial Arts
WK Taekwondo
Adam grew up in his family's martial arts school but had never built one from scratch. When he opened WK Taekwondo in Schaumburg, Illinois, he had zero students and no idea how to generate them. He partnered with Kin from day one. He opened with over 70 students, hit 185 active members in his first year, and has since scaled to $43K/month in recurring revenue.
"Kin Creative does not only do ads. They follow up on all of your leads. That makes my life as a school owner much easier because I can focus on teaching, retention, and the things I love to do."
— Adam Jo, WK Taekwondo
Kugar Taekwondo
Jesse had been running Kugar Taekwondo since 2008 and was doing all his own marketing. He once accidentally spent $10,000 in 10 days boosting a Facebook post with terrible results. After partnering with Kin, he nearly doubled his revenue in a year, hired staff so he could stop working nights, and generated roughly $70K in profit he didn't have the year before.
"The extra revenue allows me to have more personal time with my family. Which is why we do it, right? We don't do it just to put dollars in the bank account. I get to be home for bedtime stories now. I can't get that time back if I miss it."
— Jesse, Kugar Taekwondo
Fearless Martial Arts Academy
Tom had been stuck under the $25K ceiling for a while despite having a strong student base. Leads were slipping through the cracks and he was doing everything himself. Within 6 months of partnering with Kin, he rebuilt his lead flow, dialed in his follow-up process, and added $15K+ in monthly revenue. He's now hiring staff and stepping off the floor.
"KIN has really become like an extension of my team. They've taken a lot of that burden off of our shoulders. So by the time a parent and a new student come in for a trial, they're pretty much prepped and ready to go. All we have to do is give them a great trial and get them signed up."
— Tom, Fearless Martial Arts Academy
