Show Notes
Jeremy DePrato’s background is in information technology (IT) has been working in IT for about 20 years. Around 10 years ago Jeremy Brazilian Jujitsu and in 2017 he began doing Jujitsu competitively. When people noticed how much weight he had lost they want his helped – so he did so for free. Then he started getting real clients to use the money to fund his competitions.
With the COVID-19 pandemic many of the Jujitsu competitors are out of shape and getting down in the dumps. Jeremy thinks this is an opportunity to help these competitors and make an income doing so!
Using the opportunity in your circumstances.
The thing we love most about Jeremy’s membership is that he is not allowing COVID-19 to crush his online business but using it as opportunity to serve! It is serving the people that are not only his clients but people everywhere through his online community!
How do we get more people into your membership?
Jeremy’s domain name (bjjmacros.com) is great because a lot of people teach macros but his membership is specifically for what he teaches, what his members are needing. It’s easy to target, he’s speaking their language, it very clear! Then, we can start expanding out and getting people that maybe aren’t into Jujitsu involved and using his membership for the macros he teaches.
Overcoming the curse of knowledge.
Right now Jeremy’s biggest struggle is not knowing how to expand his content, he is very narrow-focused. Sometimes the curse of knowledge is having a direct answer and sometimes even speaking very bluntly. We can see how Jeremy being an IT person and an introvert could struggle with this – but it’s certainly not impossible to overcome!
