One day in 1995 Marjolein was out for her daily run when her life took a dramatic turn for the worst. She was hit by a car. Her rehabilitation, as you can imagine was long and arduous but in time she recovered, in part due to her perseverance and the use of pilates as her physical therapy.
She credits pilates as a big reason for her being able to run, move fluidly and be more connected to her body. Today she still moves like someone half her age or younger… and I’ve seen her move!
From there her story becomes even more fascinating and more positive as well.
Being the entrepreneur she is ( and she believes entrepreneurs are born, not made…. more on that in this episode) she decided to embark on an all encompassing journey to create a home pilates machine that was affordable to the masses and could help people receive the benefits she receive during her rehab period as a fitness tool.
As a TV producer of informerials already she had the know how to marketing to those potential buyers. And that she did. She not only created the Aero Pilates machine but she marketed them through infomercials and QVC and the rest is history.
The net result is that The Aero Pilates machine has been the longest selling and most successful fitness product in the history of QVC. Marjolein has creates a multimillion dollar business.

In this episode we’ll discuss:
