If the American dream is to be your own boss, the American yogi’s dream is to own your own studio. Polished hard wood floors, floor to ceiling mirrors, maybe a little boutique up front. But what if (like me) numbers and balancing budgets and managing spreadsheets isn’t your cupoteasana? Well then, you’ll oughta look into MINDBODY Online, the virtual manager/accountant for your mini yoga/pilates/fitness/spa/dance empire.
Interested? Check ‘em out here. Or check out the facts (culled from a press release of theirs) below.
1. MINDBODY software is used by 3,200 businesses in 42 countries, and services over 7 million people worldwide.
2. In the past 12 months, 3 million people have booked a service online using MINDBODY. That amounts to 8,000+ per day.
