The Fitness Business e-Newsletter
Greetings!

Firstly, I would like to thank the 819 business owners and managers that competed last months '60 Second Survey' - a huge response, with some great suggestions and terrific feedback. One suggestion which kept coming up, we thought was such a good idea, it's included in this months edition  - see Club Business Profile and PT Business Profile both on the right hand side.
 
News in brief...
As a result of the survey, and as promised, one participant has won $1000 to spend on online advertising with GymLink Australia - that business is Fitness Crew PT - congratulations.

The new digital interactive Fitness Suppliers Directory is now live. You can now enquire in an instant to Australia's leading suppliers - click here to view.
 
If you want to feature your business in the new Club Profile or PT Business Profile slots, please email craig@gymlink.com.au.
 
As always, your continued feedback is appreciated.

Are You Doing These Easy Things in Your PT Business?
(by my fitness business)

Most trainers and fitness professional are in the business of trading hours for dollars. Train a client, get paid.  Don't train anyone, don't get paid.

Okay, you may receive a small hourly rate from the gym for wandering the floor, but that is still trading hours for dollars.

If this is all you do, you'll probably be out of the fitness industry in a few years max. Why?  Because you'll soon learn, that even if your schedule is booked solid, you've got a cap on how much you can earn.  That is the reality when trading hours for dollars is your only source of income.

It isn't that hard to escape this problem, yet it amazing the number of trainers who don't do even the most basic, simple things to help them out of this situation.
