SJJA Association is a thriving Karate club located in Crows Nest, Australia. As part of the SJJA network, associated schools receive constant communication and business support from the headquarters in Crows Nest. This support includes access to accounting, management, and payment systems, marketing material, website templates, merchandise, supplier contacts, coaching and staff training, sales support, and proprietary technology to ensure smooth operations of the school. Associated schools also receive the monthly Academy newsletter, which provides regular updates and information.
The popularity of the UFC and MMA has made Martial Arts training, especially Jiu-jitsu, increasingly popular. SJJA gyms take advantage of this trend and have experienced a rise in membership numbers. The engaged and proud members of SJJA schools contribute to the growth of the club through word-of-mouth and social media. SJJA Associated owners not only benefit from membership income but also generate revenue from private coaching and quality merchandise sales, including street apparel, official uniforms, and training gear.
Investing in an SJJA franchise offers a unique business opportunity in the martial arts industry. With a low setup cost, low ongoing fee structure, high margins, and a highly engaged community, owning an SJJA franchise provides financial benefits. To start an SJJA franchise, a commercial real estate space of 150 square metres (or 1830 square feet) is required. Previous business or Jiu-jitsu knowledge is not necessary, but each school must have a head coach of at least brown belt level.
Coaches must also complete the SJJA coaching course and obtain any requisite training certificates and accreditations. Prospective franchisees are encouraged to visit the Crows Nest HQ to observe and learn from the operations of one of the biggest gyms in Australia.
SJJA provides comprehensive training to franchise owners, offering guidance on running the school, working with suppliers, and marketing strategies.
