Schoolownertalk.com With Allie Alberigo And Duane Brumitt

In this episode, Duane Brumitt shares his practical approach to time management, breaking down his schedule into four key categories: on the mat, off the mat, free from the mat, and clean the mat. He and Shihan Allie Alberigo dive into the importance of intentionally scheduling free time to avoid burnout, while offering actionable advice on setting boundaries and avoiding "time vampires"—those distractions that drain productivity. Duane introduces the Pareto Principle (80/20 rule) and explains how focusing on the 20% of high-impact tasks, such as lead follow-up and student retention, can drive 80% of the results. They discuss strategies like time blocking and prioritizing high-value activities to ensure school owners stay productive without sacrificing their personal time. With more insights to share, they agree to continue this important conversation in a future episode. Tune in to learn how to take control of your time and boost your martial arts school’s success!
