Growth for Jiu-Jitsu academies

When your academy gets leads. How many become members?

We install a membership engine on your academy's WhatsApp and texts: it replies in seconds, books the trial, and follows every lead to the membership — and you keep full control of every metric that actually matters.

The problem

The lead comes in. Then it goes cold.

Maybe you need more leads — we can fill that. But leads alone don't pay rent. What turns a lead into a member is what happens in the minutes after they raise their hand.

⏱️

Speed decides it

A lead cools within minutes — and the second touch rides on you, so it rarely comes. Harvard Business Review found that answering within an hour makes you nearly 7× more likely to qualify a lead than waiting even one hour more.

🗓️

Booking shouldn't be a maze

A clunky or manual scheduler quietly loses people. Our system books a trial in under 30 seconds — and tracks every booking, 100%.

🥋

No-shows eat your schedule

People book and forget. Without a reminder at the right moment, the spot sits empty and nobody chases it.

🎯

You spend in the dark

Which ad brought a paying member — not just a click? Without that answer, budget goes to the wrong place every month.

The funnel, end to end

From the first “hi” to the membership.

When you put money into getting leads, every stage has to be mapped — that's how you optimize toward the lowest possible cost per enrollment. We're specialists in each stage, and we show you the number behind every step.

  1. Top of funnel · acquisition

    Validated traffic that feeds the funnel

    We run and validate ads on Meta and Google — testing creatives and audiences, cutting what doesn't convert and scaling only what turns into members. The dashboard proves, campaign by campaign, what brings enrollments and at what cost.

    Meta AdsGoogle Ads

    You track: cost per lead (CPL) and per enrollment (CPE) on each platform.

  2. 01

    Capture

    The lead comes in from ads (Meta/Google), your site, a direct message or a referral — already tagged by its source.

    You track: leads and cost per lead (CPL) by source.

  3. 02

    First touch

    The moment a lead comes in, the system fires an instant reply from your templates and qualifies adults vs. kids — within the hours you set (business hours only, or whenever you choose).

    You track: response time and contact rate.

  4. 03

    Conversation & follow-up

    If they go quiet, an automated follow-up sequence (minutes, hours, days) keeps the conversation warm and stops the moment they reply. You choose: approve each message, or let the sequence run.

    You track: reply rate and open conversations.

  5. 04

    Booking

    When a lead replies, you get an instant alert and answer fast — one tap gives you an AI-drafted reply to send. Then book the trial yourself in seconds (recommended), or send the ready-made link for them to pick a time. On Black Belt, our team runs the whole conversation.

    You track: bookings and booking rate.

  6. 05

    Reminder & attendance

    Automated reminders 24h and 2h out (message + email) crush no-shows. Then the system logs who actually stepped on the mats.

    You track: no-show rate and attendance.

  7. 06

    Recovery

    No-shows drop into a rebooking sequence. Cold leads get a reactivation pass. And leads you'd written off get a win-back email that pulls them back onto the calendar — at almost zero cost. A dead lead becomes a second shot.

    You track: recovered leads and memberships won back from your cold list (~$0).

  8. 07

    Membership & retention

    Tracking runs all the way to a paying member — with recurring revenue (MRR) and real retention in plain view.

    You track: cost per enrollment (CPE), MRR and average retention.

Every step has automatic recovery for the leads about to leak — that's where you win members without spending more on ads.

Under the hood

Not a message bot. A whole operation.

Everything your front desk would do on a perfect day — except it never drops the ball, never forgets, and watches your leads around the clock.

🔌

Wired to your sources

Meta Ads, Google Ads, your site and forms flow into the funnel on their own — every lead tagged by where it came from.

🔔

Instant lead alerts

The second a lead comes in, you're pinged — so you answer while they're still hot. Speed is what converts.

🤖

AI suggests, you approve

The AI drafts each reply in your academy's voice; you send it with one tap. Nothing goes out on its own — it just makes you fast and personal, without the work.

🔁

A cadence that won't quit

Opening, follow-up, no-show recovery and reactivation sequences — each with its own rhythm, all stopping the moment the lead replies.

🕒

On your schedule

Messages go out during the hours you choose, in your city's time zone. No 3 a.m. texts.

✍️

The words are yours

Editable templates per program (adults/kids), on messaging and email. Your voice, not ours.

✉️

Email win-back for lost leads

The lead you paid to get is never abandoned. Unless they opt out, your cold list keeps getting reached by email campaigns — at near-zero cost — until they come back.

⭐

Post-class feedback

After the trial, the student reports attendance and a rating. You see every class's satisfaction.

📇

Everything in one place

Leads, conversations, calendar, attendance, memberships and ad spend — one operation, not ten tabs.

The weapon

You run your return on ad spend. In dollars.

The dashboard that matters most: it ties every ad dollar to the membership it produced. You stop guessing and start spending where members actually come from.

Cost per lead (CPL)

What each contact costs — split by source and by campaign.

Cost per enrollment (CPE)

The number that counts: what you pay per paying member, not per click.

New MRR

The recurring revenue each campaign window generated.

ROAS on LTV

Return measured by the student's real lifetime value, not just month one.

Measured retention

How long members actually stay, from your school's real cancellations — not a guess.

Attribution by source

From ad to membership: which channel truly fills the mats.

Average retention varies by school — set yours, and every LTV and ROAS figure updates instantly.

Why us

A growth partner — not a CRM vendor.

A typical CRM

Hands you the software and disappears. You configure it, maintain it and figure out — by trial and error — what works. The complexity bill lands on you.

Black Belt Growth

We install, run and optimize it with you. We're black belts: we get BJJ culture and the logic of acquisition. Our result is your enrollment number going up — month after month. One new member a month covers us; everything after that is profit.
