Turning Your Gym Business Vision into Reality with Steve Grant - PT COREntrepreneur Podcast
Thinking of starting your own gym? Trying to grow and improve your existing business? With so much competition in the marketplace, running a successful gym is not simply a matter of setting up a facility and watching the money roll in. All things being equal, what makes or breaks a small business is its ability to connect personally with customers and inspire employees.
Choosing the right strategies to get your message across is critical. Maybe that means sticking with the tried-and-true tactics. Or, it could mean getting creative and taking cues from successful businesses in other industries.
Work smart, not hard. Developing the right business plan for your gym will not only lead to success in the future, but also save you time and effort in the present.
“It’s only when you break down each step of the sales funnel, you can find these great opportunities just to tweak something. The improvements in revenue are dramatic.”
- Steve Grant
