When I first started my personal training business WAY back when I made a BIG mistake.
Well, I made lots of them, but I only want to go over one of them today.
For months I tried to go it alone. I’m an introvert by nature so the thought of actually going out and talking to people about my business was none too appealing.
But I finally got smart - and courageous.
I started by going to an event for the American Cancer Society so I could tie in a promotion for my services to one of their events.
It was there that I met a woman who introduced me to a networking group in the Carrollwood section of Tampa.
From there I met my first business coach.
My name started to get out there.
I started to land speaking engagements.
I was invited to write for publications and websites.
All because I got off my rear end and got out into the world.
You see, I get asked more and more about Corporate Boot Camps.
Trainers want to know how to get their foot in the door.
Plain and simple, there ain’t no big secret.

They need to get out into the world and start networking with the Movers and Shakers.
It’s a whole lot easier when you know these decision makers personally.
Or at least personally know the people who do.
If you want your business to succeed there is a very cheap and fast way to do it:
Get off your scared and lazy butt and get wired into your local community.
It took me a little while to get over the fear of doing it, but once I did, well, things haven’t been the same since.
Who loves ya? 
Yours in prosperity,
