You know you need clients and that you could help them if they would just give you a chance, but you don’t know how to get them. You constantly find yourself wondering who or what you should be listening to and sometimes you’re just not sure if you’re good enough. It seems like you’re doing a lot every day and when you finally have a shot to make someone a client it’s always the same story; they love the workouts, but they “just can’t afford it right now” or “I’ll think about it.” Other trainers in the area seem to pick up clients with ease, but you KNOW that you’re a better coach. What gives? To top it all off, the 2 or 3 clients that you have are getting great results, but they’re just not telling their friends about you despite every trainer you follow on Facebook saying that “word of mouth” is the key to building your business.

Imagine finally being able to breathe a bit; you can pay your bills, you start to develop some notoriety in the area, and clients begin sending a couple friends or family members your way. You find yourself getting into a groove by making some of your processes more consistent and you gain some more confidence selling your service. The additional funds you’re making allow you to continue educating yourself further and keep business growth on an upward trajectory. You’re not out of the woods yet, but you are consistently setting and hitting goals and realize you can make a go at this thing.
