How do you speed up success in your business?

Envision and imagine a powerful future that is inspiring and exciting. Be very clear with your goal and execute quickly.

Mark Fisher is an in-demand international speaker, consultant, and entrepreneur.

His core expertise is helping business owners achieve financial success and personal freedom through community building, leadership development, and creating healthy organizational cultures. He's also excellent at playing with puppies.

Mark and his “non-sexual life partner” Michael created Business for Unicorns in 2016 and have since worked with clients like Sony Music, Sylvan Learning, and the ACLU, as well as many of the leading fitness studios across the US and UK.

In addition to their consulting and teaching through Business for Unicorns, Mark and Michael also co-founded Mark Fisher Fitness, one of the most successful gyms in the history of the fitness industry.

In this episode, Mark shares how he was able to scale his business in a year, so quickly than most others. Realize the power of visualization -- creating that compelling picture of your future that makes you take action. Harness affirmation. Self-awareness is key to knowing what you want and identifying your values. When these are all taken care of, you get clarity of your vision and that’s when you execute. 

Create great relationships with everyone to build your network. And for a business to be successful, nothing beats having a known, trusted safe quantity people associate you for. So that whatever different service you create for them they will always go back for the reason with which they associate you for. 

Remember there is a fortune in the follow-up. Follow up people, that’s important.

Listen to his thoughts as he shares what he thinks of the fitness industry in terms of it opening up to in-person and how the concept of community plays out then.

“I think it's important to explore yourself, know yourself because if you're to create a life that you want that is deeply personal and will be a reflection of your values, the standards of behavior with which you choose to show up in the world, and which importantly, you choose not to show up in the world, and a personally meaningful mission that is invariably some expression of how you hope to be a servant and impact the communities you feel called to serve.”
