YOUNG, FAST, AND DOESN’T GIVE A F*@K: Talking To Alex Maroko About Fitness Marketing At Warp Speed!

Posted on 29. Jul, 2009 by Doug Groce, CSCS.

If you're still on the fence about this whole fitness information product world, then the interview I just did with basketball trainer, speed coach, and fitness marketer, Alex Maroko, may be just the guy to hear from to motivate you to get moving on this. I met Alex when I was with Kaiser at Ryan Lee's event a couple months ago. Because he was one of the only guys there my age (actually four years younger), I knew that this was someone I could learn from and was somebody that I had to get to know . Like me, Alex is a big believer that there are no good reasons or excuses (including age) that you can't succeed in business online if you have something of value to offer - and he is walking, talking proof. Alex is an extremely nice guy and is very passionate about business and marketing, and the cool thing is, he loves talking about business, which will become obvious to you during the interview. Pay attention to learn how he did it all so fast. And I hope Alex doesn't get mad that I butchered pronouncing his last name to start the interview. For the record, it's pronounced muh-rok-oh. Had to clear that up. Anyway.. Check out the interview here:
