Garage Gym Startup

Partnerships are very common in the gym industry and breakups among those partnerships are too.  

In this episode I talk about partnerships, the pros, but mostly cons and being in business with your significant other.

Too often I hear people use, "I want it to be perfect first" as an excuse to not execute. Nothing will ever be perfect, so avoid that barrier and start your journey!

Also, if you wouldn't mind, a quick review of the podcast would be great!

Not everyone is created equal especially when it comes to being an owner. Maybe you are currently a personal trainer at a globo gym (that's how I started) or maybe you currently train out of your garage. Whichever you do, here are some tips when it comes to taking the next step to opening your gym.

I'm so excited about The Garage Gym Startup Podcast. In this episode I'm going to share my journey into the business, my background and we are going to talk Location, Location, Location. 

The Garage Gym Startup is based on the steps we have taken. It may be helpful to some, and others it may not. But I do wish I had someone to listen to when I first started my gym and I hope to be that person for others.

If you have any questions, please email me at [email protected] and I would love to answer your questions.

We are excited to reach our 5 year mark as a business, but we know there are many more years to come. 

Check this episode out to hear how we have used Facebook marketing to help grow our gym slowly, but surely. 

The Texas Water Safari was an incredible experience and much as learned between 44 hours of no sleep and getting lost in Alligator Lake. Check out my experience and what it taught me about life and business. 

We always want to be perfect, and there is nothing wrong with that. But if you are ready to open a gym, or launch a product, or just be awesome, don't wait to be perfect. Believe in your product/skill, and go make it happen. Perfect will only stop you and you will use it as an excuse to delay, delay, delay!

As gym owners and coaches it is important we are honest to ourselves when it comes to our strengths and weaknesses. This self awareness can help any soon to be gym owner find a specific niche or even help a current gym owner bring in more clients. Check it out and then give yourself a check over and be authentic, especially to yourself!

There is WAY more to being a great coach than just knowing how to teach a squat. Here are some characteristics I believe everyone needs in order to not just be a good, but a GREAT coach!

Many think owning a gym is about coaching, working out, and counting your $$. But let me tell you right now, none of that happens! Be ready for lack of sleep, 30 minute maintenance training sessions, and LOTS of hard work. It's not for everyone, but that's what separates good from great!
