Welcome to Courtside Conversations – the podcast that breaks down franchising and business ownership.
Each week, we talk to franchise owners and business experts who share real stories and lessons on starting, growing, and running a successful franchise.
We’ll cover:
✅ How franchising works and if it’s right for you
✅ The challenges of owning a business—and how to solve them
✅ Proven strategies for growth, marketing, and leadership
If you're curious about franchising or owning a business, this podcast is for you!
How to Increase Revenue From Customers You Already Have (Without Finding a Single New One)
New customers cost you money. Existing customers already trust you.
In this live workshop, I break down the exact Lifetime Value (LTV) framework we use to help franchisees grow revenue from the families they already have, through smarter upsells, better timing, and effortless referrals, instead of spending more time and money chasing new enrolments.
If you're a franchise owner, small business owner, coach, or service-based business looking to grow revenue without constantly hunting for new customers, this workshop is for you.
In this workshop you'll learn:
✅ Why existing customers are 6x easier to sell to than new inquiries (and what that means for your revenue)
✅ What Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) is, and how Starbucks uses it to justify spending big on marketing
✅ How to grow one family's value from $270 to $2,500 using 5 proven "levers"
✅ Why timing your offer matters more than the offer itself (the steak analogy)
✅ How to turn a Gold VIP membership into your fastest-growing revenue stream
✅ How to make referrals effortless with a simple MVP program
✅ Why picking ONE lever and going deep beats trying to do everything at once
The goal isn't to find more customers. It's to get more value from the ones who already trust you.

I Left My Business for 5 Weeks and Didn't Check It Once. Here's How. | EP 105
🎙️ Welcome to Courtside Conversations with Emile Koorey
🚀 In this episode, we cover:
✅ Why "controllism" (the need to control every part of your business) is quietly destroying business owners, and the mindset shift needed to build a business that serves you, not the other way around
✅ How to build checklists and playbooks (including using AI to create them in minutes) so your team can run the business to your standard without you micromanaging every decision
✅ The systems that made a 5-week, zero-contact break possible: empowering staff with the "1-3-1 rule," setting clear outcomes with the "What, Why, Who" framework, and having a real emergency protocol in place

You're Using AI Wrong in Your Business. Here's the 10-Minute Fix. | EP 104
🎙️ Welcome to Courtside Conversations with Emile Koorey
🚀 In this episode, we cover:
✅ Why waiting on AI is quietly costing you the competitive edge — and how to make learning it a daily habit (1-2 hours a day, one creator, one month)
✅ How to map out exactly what's worth automating in your business using the two-question test: is it recurring, and is it admin-heavy?
✅ A real walkthrough of turning a manual task into a fully automated AI dashboard — from listing subtasks to handing them to an AI tool to build
