I started my business when I was I believe 25.. I did it more out of desperation tbh. I didn’t have a lot of employment options and was looking at a second bout of homelessness. I always had the gym and I was good with people so I jumped in and made moves… in the first month I made 7k (more money then I’d seen in my life in my account) and was able to move into an apt later that month.
I have 1 coach that works under me and a social media and marketing manager that work for me. I’m going to keep my staff as light as possible until I need to hire more… hiring is a pain and finding good people to work for you can be a literal hell (many bad experiences with that)
I would have got on Instagram asap! I avoided it early on because I hated social media but it will ultimately be what truly delivers wealth to me in the long term. I also would have worked on my systems earlier and billing model. I don’t even want to think of the money I lost over the years doing people favors or not tracking numbers accurately.
I’m happy to hear you’re following your passion my friend. And I hope these answers help. I’m happy to chat further via dm as well
- it took my about 8ish years.. a lot of trial and error.. but I always grew revenue year by year… I fully plan to net 6 figures monthly in the near future.
2.I never had a true mentor tbh… this actually filled me with a lot of resentment for a long time tbh… but I honestly came to the conclusion no one was coming to save me and I needed to kill the lion myself. I’ve been fortunate to be around high net worth successful people as clients though and have been able to get some solid advice here and there. I do want to say however I’m not under any illusion I did this all by myself…. I had help.. people that fed me when I couldn’t afford food, the owner of the first studio I worked at letting me sleep there when I didn’t have a home even though he didn’t know me at all…. No one succeeds alone.. but at the end of the day it has to be you.. it’s your war to win. I do read business literature also… idk how god his rep is but Alex Hermozi’s books were honestly a god send in many ways.
2-3.if you DM me I can give details in that more.. but the long and short of it is that I honestly try to provide an amazing experience for my clients. My gym is highly curated and creates a comfortable private environment to train with me.. my app is and insanely user friendly system that gamifies progress and I take a personal vestment in each of my clients and txt them almost everyday to check in and encourage them to keep implementing the plan and let them know someone truly cares and is in their corner. Making a big change like many people come to me for can be intimidating so I try to cover every base I possibly can to make set people up for success. It boils down to expert knowledge and passion, extreme personal care and accountability in addition to cut glass systems for me.
- I have a customized trainerize for my app but will make a complete custom one in the future.
For sure I’ll answer there
I make content that is engaging and informative
I offer free things as value proof that are ultimately lead magnets
I don’t hard sell people but a percentage of those people that take me up on my offers I get on calls to convert to clients
