  • Words matter. It may not seem like a big deal, but the way you label your service can really shape how clients see its value – and, of course, what they're willing to pay for it.

    This is why it’s important not to confuse "semi private training" with something that many others might refer to as "small group training."

    Small group training sounds like a lesser version of large group classes. It brings to mind an image of a few people doing the same routine, which usually fits more with budget fitness options.

    On the other hand, semi private training offers customized workouts that are tailored to each client's needs, giving it a more exclusive and private feel.

    That’s why removing the “group” vibe from a service allows gyms to charge a premium price. It shifts the perception from a cost-saving option to a premium product that stands out in a sea of generic fitness offerings.

    This approach not only builds our gym's reputation but also significantly increases revenue by attracting clients who see the value in paying more for a customized service.

    If you want to find out more about the benefits of individualized workouts, tune in for this week’s episode. Tim and Randy are explaining how to transform your training models and adopt a more premium approach.

  • Paid-in-full gym memberships seem like an easy win. Many gym owners usually jump at the opportunity to get that quick money. And it’s understandable – it looks like a low-hanging fruit.

    But this strategy can backfire because it usually attracts clients who act on impulse. So, relying on PIF is actually gambling on the chance that these clients won’t leave you for months (or years).

    Sure, that immediate influx of cash feels good. But what about next month? Or the month after? You have to constantly chase the next sale and it feels like trying to fill a bucket with a hole in the bottom.

    This is why Tim and Randy are recommending focusing on building monthly recurring revenue.

    It offers a solid foundation and stability for your gym business, and also shows that you believe in the value your gym provides. And the people who appreciate good value are more likely to become your loyal clients, which means a more predictable cash flow.

    So, would you rather get immediate cash from a bunch of new clients or have a gym full of members who have been part of your gym's family for years? Seems like a no brainer.

    Want to learn more about long-term benefits of recurring revenue over the quick gains from paid-in-full sales?

  • What if I told you that your gym membership could be worth $40k a year? You’re likely wondering what it takes to create such a plan and make it work.

    Well, probably something like what Equinox is doing with their new high-end membership that costs exactly $40,000 a year. Equinox’s holistic wellness package includes offerings like blood work, sleep coaching, and personalized health services.

    Their holistic approach is setting a new standard and shows there's a huge demand for high-end programs on the market. By following their lead and adopting similar strategies, gym owners can create premium services for their own clients.

    For example, gyms can use biometric data to show the full benefits of their programs - not just weight loss, but also things like heart rate and sleep quality. They can also start cooperating with medical professionals and offer services like hormone replacement therapy and blood panels.

    Having in mind that more and more people, especially younger ones, don’t trust traditional medicine, gyms have a great chance to fill in the gap and become more involved in their clients' overall health. We just need to think creatively about adding value and offering comprehensive health solutions to justify higher membership fees.

    So, if you want to improve your gym's offerings and meet the growing demand on the market, tune in to this episode. Tim and Randy will show you how to transform your fitness business with premium programs.

  • Clients don't like change, even if it's for the better. Whether it's a change in gym policies, equipment, class schedules, or coaching – any adjustment can cause unrest. Even when changes bring more sessions or lower charges, someone might still quit.

    Simply put, change naturally brings unrest because clients love routine just as much as you do.

    So when it is time to introduce changes in your gym, make them all at once instead of doing it every couple of months. Yes, you will certainly lose some clients, but that fear is often exaggerated.

    Take price increases, for example – data shows that only about 7% of clients leave, even when prices go up by 30-50%. When backed by careful data analysis, the decision to make such a change is a huge win.

    But price increase is not the only change that can improve your gym business. In this week's episode, Tim and Randy discuss three small but powerful shifts that led to significant improvements in their gym's operations and finances.

    Join them to learn more about these strategic adjustments and how you can implement them to boost revenue without causing client confusion and quitting.

    Tune in now!

    Key Takeaways:

    Intro (00:00)Clients don’t like changes (00:56)Membership simplification (03:44)Freezing membership options (06:04)Communicating benefits of new policies to clients (10:30)Flexible booking and cancellation policy (12:44)Perfect timing for implementing changes (16:36)Recap (19:57)

  • Desperation is one of the worst places to make decisions from.

    But that's often where gym owners find themselves when money is getting tight and they’re struggling to make payroll or rent. In those moments, quick-fix solutions that promise big returns suddenly start looking really tempting.

    For example, you might think about swapping your quality training programs for high-intensity, short-term challenges just to get some quick cash. Familiar?

    However, what seems like a good idea in desperate moments, probably goes against your gym’s values or long-term vision. Plus, what about the loyal clients who joined for your original values? This kind of shift can push them away and that will definitely hurt your gym’s culture and image.

    To help you avoid such risky moves, in this episode Tim and Randy are exploring sustainable ways to manage cash flow without sacrificing your gym's values. They are talking about how maintaining your beliefs and avoiding desperation can be key to long-term success.

    Join them and learn why you need to stick to your guns, even when it’s tempting to take a shortcut.

  • Ever found yourself frozen, waiting for the perfect moment to make a business move? Or stuck pondering over minor member complaints, only to end up putting off major beneficial changes?

  • Do you feel like we’re bombarded by flashy gym marketing ads promising the moon but delivering only dust?

    They guarantee something like a thousand leads or clients in a ridiculously short time and even promise a money-back guarantee if they fail. But, guess what: they will fail, and they definitely won’t return your money.

    And this is just one example of the hundreds of insanely tempting claims we hear every day. But remember, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

  • The better you are as a coach, the more likely clients are to quit. Quite a paradox, isn’t it?

    Many gym owners notice that clients who achieve their goals often stop coming. If you're new to this, you might be wondering what went wrong. But those of us who've been around know this is pretty common.

    People usually hit the gym with specific goals in mind, not necessarily to make it a lifestyle. So, don’t take it personally if they left your gym after losing 30 pounds – you could have provided the best service in the world, and they would have quit anyway.

    Calm down, you’ve done your job well.

    But, to keep your clients coming back and to grow your gym, it's crucial to shift your focus. Start building relationships with clients who view fitness as a lifestyle, and aim for consistent, sustainable revenue.

    Let’s target a steady $30k a month to start. (That's actually tougher than scaling from $30k to $50k.) Want to know how to reach that first milestone?

    Tune into this week’s episode with Tim and Randy. They’ve got tons of great advice and will introduce you to a free resource where you can find answers to any questions you might have – their ProFit Accelerator Facebook group.

    So, check out this episode, join their Facebook group, and learn how you can consistently earn $30k+ month after month.

  • Every gym owner wants their clients to be loyal to the gym, not just to the coaches. Yet, it's common for clients to follow a coach when they leave.

    To prevent this, gym owners should standardize a high-quality program that every coach can deliver. This way, if a coach does leave, their clients can easily switch to another trainer seamlessly.

    So, are you worried about losing clients if a coach leaves? And how much freedom do your coaches have? If they're crafting their own programs within your gym, you'll definitely want to check out this episode.

    This week, Tim and Randy are diving into their systematized training approach, ensuring every client enjoys the best possible workout every time, no matter who they're training with.

    Their semi-private Pro system improves client satisfaction and reduces the risks of overly personal coach-client relationships. It's all about consistency and quality, protecting both your gym’s reputation and your clients' experiences.

    Tune in to learn more about how to effectively manage your training programs and put these ideas into practice at your gym.

  • Many gym owners complain that they feel like they're throwing money into a black hole with Facebook ads without seeing any return. Have you noticed a drop in your Facebook ad performance in early 2024?

    Although the situation is improving now, there was a period when leads were captured but remained unresponsive despite calls, texts, and emails – like they were not genuine, but bot-generated to boost ad stats without actual engagement.

    This issue with Facebook has led Tim and Randy to address a common marketing mistake among gym owners: putting all their eggs in one basket – specifically, the Facebook basket.

    So in this episode, they discuss the common pitfalls related to Facebook ads and share their 'Poles in the Water' strategy. This approach makes sure you're not just depending on one platform for all your marketing.

    It's about using different marketing strategies together, which helps get your gym noticed and brings in more leads. It's like throwing out several fishing lines at once to increase your chances of catching fish.

  • “I'm making money while I’m sitting here in the cafe, and I don't even have to be at work on Monday.”

    How many professionals can say something like this? Definitely not many.

    Doctors, lawyers, professors, pharmacists, dentists – these traditional professionals are highly respected. However, their careers constantly require them to trade time for money.

    That’s something gym owners don’t have to do. Of course, when you decided to become an entrepreneur and probably leave your 9 to 5, you definitely traded 40 hours and a steady paycheck for 80 hours and no stability.

    But as soon as you grow your business from just working for yourself to truly owning it and start earning good money, you'll find yourself in a spot that regular jobs just can't match, no matter how much they pay.

    Yes, traditional jobs might offer financial stability, but owning a gym gives you the chance to work on your business, not just in it. You can create systems that let you step back and enjoy real financial freedom. That's something traditional careers just can't offer.

    This is not downplaying anyone's hard work – just pointing out the difference between owning a business and being self-employed. This shift not only changes your lifestyle but also improves your business's ability to grow.

    So, if you're a gym owner caught up in the daily grind, remember that you didn't choose this path just to work endless hours. You chose it for the potential it offers – a lifestyle of freedom, choice, and significant financial rewards.

    Join Tim and Randy in this week’s episode as they discuss why owning a gym beats traditional careers, offering both freedom and financial independence.

  • Many gym owners are trapped in their businesses, constantly putting out fires. Yet others seem to enjoy their freedom to the fullest as their gyms grow smoothly.

    Why does this happen?

    Well, their secret lies in delegating tasks and giving the team the power to make decisions. This strategy not only improves efficiency but also empowers the staff, creating a proactive and independent team culture.

    To step back from day-to-day operations, gym owners need to overcome their control issues and the urge to micromanage. This means hiring competent staff and setting up systems and SOPs so that they know their business runs smoothly even in their absence.

    So, the key to breaking free from mundane routines is to trust your team and invest in their development. This will allow you to focus on the things that really move your business forward, like leadership skills, strategic planning, and business growth.

    Once the day-to-day operations are off your plate, your gym business will grow thanks to the hard work of a motivated team, and you can ultimately make more money while having a lot more free time.

    In this episode, Tim and Randy discuss this shift from hands-on management to strategic leadership and share how to remove yourself from day-to-day operations.

    So, are you ready to make this change in your gym? Join Tim and Randy in this episode and let them show you how.

  • Would you buy what you’re selling if you walked into your gym?

    This is something gym owners and personal trainers should consider, especially given the fitness industry's not-so-great image. And, to be honest, the bad reputation is justified because there's been years of low-quality stuff out there.

    Why does this happen?

    Most of the time, the problems stem from not being professional enough and lacking clear regulations. These issues get worse with varying quality of services, messy rules, and contracts that leave customers unhappy.

    But here’s a thought: what if, instead of just going along with how things have always been, gyms started aiming higher? Isn't it time our services stood out from the low quality that's been all too common and set a new, higher standard of excellence?

    In this episode, Tim and Randy discuss the big issue of lacking professionalism and how it makes it tough for gyms and trainers to really shine.

    By continuously learning, being clear and fair with customers, and ensuring everyone who works at the gym is on their A-game, gyms can start to turn things around.

  • Have you ever wondered why the same marketing strategy succeeds in one market but fails in another? Often, it's because gyms take the easy road, neglecting the hard work of crafting a message that speaks directly to potential clients.

    In this episode, Tim and Randy discuss this topic, sharing insights from their experience and a game-changing meet-up with marketing guru Todd Brown.

    They describe how attending a workshop, which cost them $12,000, completely changed their approach to tailoring marketing for diverse groups. They point out the importance of creating marketing messages that resonate with the needs and interests of a specific audience.

    Todd's advice was clear: never underestimate the task at hand. Gym owners need to make an effort to genuinely connect with their audience. At the end of the day, everything in business comes down to convincing someone to spend their money on your services.

    That’s why you should take every single aspect of your gym business seriously. Every detail (from the color of your walls to the smell in your gym) has to be on point and done with intention.

    Tune in to this week's episode as Tim and Randy emphasize the critical role of thoughtful, dedicated strategies in marketing and business operations.

  • It's tough to be just another fish in the sea. And if you're running a large group training gym, that's exactly your business's position.

    Although large group sessions have their charm, they're not the golden ticket to business growth or client satisfaction they once were. These days, more and more gyms are leaving this model behind. Tim’s gym did just that 14 years ago, switching to a semi-private model.

    And that proved to be a true game-changer.

    Semi-private training strikes the perfect balance between personal attention and group atmosphere. Each client has their own tailored workout plan, yet they're not doing it solo. Instead, they're in a small group, guided by a single coach.

    Unlike large group sessions, where everyone does the same thing, semi-private training ensures that everyone's needs and progress are closely monitored and adjusted. It offers the benefits of a personal trainer with the added motivation from a group setting.

    Plus, it's a win-win for gym owners: fewer clients pay more, which means better revenue without the pressure of packing the room. (Something your coaches will appreciate as well.)

    Although many gym owners recognize these benefits, switching to a semi-private model is not that easy. It requires more than just tweaking your schedule or renaming your classes – it demands a strategic overhaul.

    Tim and Randy have developed a strategy for a successful transition that has proven effective many times. In this episode, they dive deep into all the details of making this strategic shift – programming, scheduling, equipment layout, marketing, pricing


    If you're ready to rethink your business model and consider the semi-private approach, this episode is perfect for you.

    Tune in and let it be your first step toward the profits you've always dreamed about.

    Key Takeaways:

    Intro (00:00)

    Large group vs. semi-private training (00:52)

    How service names show value to customers (06:52)

    ‘Switch to Semi-Private’ course (11:17)
