💡 Key Takeaways from the Webinar
1. Understand the 4 Stages of Business Growth
Your journey to a 7-figure fitness business isn’t a straight line. You must:
- Know where you are today.
- Define where you want to go.
- Focus only on the right strategies for your current stage.
Skipping steps or chasing shiny tactics too early can derail your growth.
2. Business Strategy Comes Before Marketing
Marketing alone won’t save a weak business model. Many coaches believe they just need more leads, but without a solid business foundation, lead generation efforts won’t convert.
Ask yourself:
- Who is your ideal client?
- What are you selling — exactly?
- How is it priced and packaged to be profitable?
The answers to these questions form the core of a sustainable fitness business.
3. Master Your Money Math
If you don’t have a financial model, you don’t have a business — you have a gamble.
To achieve your income goals, you need to know:
- Your key revenue streams.
- How much you are spending on labor
- Your gross and net profit margins.
By doing the math early, you ensure your work pays off, not just covers costs.
4. Sales Systems Are Essential (and Often Overlooked)
Sales isn’t something most coaches are taught, but it’s critical. Selling coaching programs requires a unique, professional approach that positions you as an expert, not just a service provider.
Your sales system should be:
- Repeatable.
- Client-centered.
- Designed to convert 80%+ of prospects into premium 3-, 6-, or 12-month programs.
5. Create Consistent Marketing that Outpaces Demand
Many coaches fall into the trap of marketing inconsistently. They only promote when things get slow, then get busy and stop again.
To grow, you need a consistent system that:
- Drives leads every single week.
- Brings more demand than you can supply.
- Makes you the go-to coach in your niche.
Don’t be the “New Year’s resolution” marketer who disappears in February.
