How did a Lanista's reputation affect their business?

A lanista, or gladiator trainer, relied heavily on reputation to attract both gladiators and spectators. A well-regarded lanista could command higher prices for training and matches, as fighters sought to join prestigious schools. Conversely, a poor reputation could lead to fewer recruits and diminished profits, as patrons preferred to watch fights organized by reputable trainers known for producing skilled gladiators.
