Get Ahead In Fitness Marketing: The Art of Being A Hack
From the hints I’ve been dropping, you know that I’ve been working on the new site for Super-Trainer …
It’s coming along great and is going to set the industry on fire, just like the original Super-Trainer did almost two years ago –
Instead of being so shady, let me tell you a little bit about what to expect so you know what you’re looking at once it arrives ….
Til now, S-T has been a fun project for me …
It’s allowed me to stay in touch with everyone at every level of the fitness industry –
But the new site is going to be brand new, hi-tech, and have a new mission –
It will based on all of the feedback I’ve been getting from you about what your real needs and interests are.
It’s going to have some great services you’re going to love that will help you get to your goals more quickly and affordably – they won’t make me much money, but they will help you make serious progress in your fitness career.
In terms of an expected date of launch, I haven’t really set one yet – I’ve been doing a little bit every day with my designers and programmers and it should be ready soon.
One thing that’s been really speeding up the process is that I’ve been modeling the success of others – that’s what I wanted to talk about now –
Whenever we want results at something, we all tend to try to reinvent the wheel, but that’s a mistake ..
Fast Track To Fitness Millions Update from Jersey!
Just got done with the second action-filled day at the FAST TRACK TO FITNESS MILLIONS event. Man, today was crazy but I’ll get to that later …
The first thing I’ve got say is how well run and polished this thing was – you’d hardly believe it was the first big event to be put on by fitness business experts Pat Rigsby, Nick Berry, and Jim Labadie.
And secondly, they attracted a tremendous crowd of nearly 300 personal trainers, bootcamp instructors, and fitness marketing entrepreneurs. It was a sharp bunch of heavy hitters looking to do serious damage in this industry.
Lastly, what stands out is the incredible line-up of speakers. The full gamut of topics on how exactly to succeed in fitness today (not 20 years ago) was covered from top to bottom.
The best part, for me was getting to meet up with all of the other industry people. We’re spread out all over the country, so these events are really the only time for all of us to meet face-to-face – that’s what makes them so fantastic.
Here are some pics of a few of the people I hung out with over the weekend:
Where’s a Top-Level Trainer When You Need One!?!?
It’s about time someone put a stop to the madness. I’m talking about recall of 3,000,000 fitness balls.
The truth is, this piece of “equipment” can be extremely dangerous if it falls into the wrong hands. It doesn’t take a CSCS to tell you that anything involving a barbell, one or more 45 plates, and a stability ball is probably not a good idea.
Thanks to BiasTraining from the Super-Trainer personal training forum for this picture – and here are some of the responses:
Design Service Is a Hit!
Well it’s official – the Super-Trainer Design Service is a huge hit!
So far, every trainer that’s purchased one or more designs has been amazed at how professional and attractive their logos and website headers look. A lot of trainers are even coming back with more orders for Ebook covers and custom labels, which have turned out great as well.
I’m starting to get a flood of orders coming in, and I’m not sure how long I’ll be offering this service at such a cheap price, so if you’re looking to get this part of your business handled right away, then head over to fitness design services page and get your order in.
How To Close Personal Training Clients
“People get caught up in wonderful, eye-catching pitches, but they don’t do enough to close the deal. It’s no good if you don’t make the sale. Even if your foot is in the door or you bring someone into a conference room, you don’t win the deal unless you actually get them to sign on the dotted line.”
Donald Trump
Say what you want about the Donald, but in business, it all comes down to one thing: closing the deal.
And if you view your Personal Training as your business, then it comes down to the same thing for you too.
Whether you know it or not, there are actually proven systems you can use to close nearly every singl client that crosses your path, and do it for the biggest money training packages possible.
TALKING ABOUT BIG MONEY IN FITNESS WITH PAT RIGSBY!!!
I talked recently to one of the coolest guys in the fitness industry, good ol’ boy Pat Rigsby.
Pat’s one of the top fitness business leaders, with a hand in so many diverse projects that it’s hard to keep up. The work he does impacts a huge number of fitness professional in some way every day.
Me and Pat got on the phone about his new FAST TRACK TO FITNESS MILLIONS event, being held in New Jersey next weekend. If you are anywhere on the east coast, I highly encourage you to check it out.
FIT-PRO MAGAZINE GETS TAKEN OVER BY SUPER-TRAINER!
I just visited the Fit-Pro Magazine site and was shocked by what I saw – they have my picture plastered all over the place!
Haha! I’m not complaining – I love those guys and gals over there, including managing editor John Thompson, Josh Vogt in the ad department, and the lady running it all, Shelby Murphy …
Besides my picture being all over the place, they also have a new, highly motivational video by Shelby. Shelby really gets what we’ve been talking about from the beginning on this blog – about how a fitness career is a vehicle for our own personal growth and fulfillment. Here’s the video (notice the broad, important issues she touches on):
