In this episode I discuss how to add value and give away valuable content for free without sacrificing clients or overwhelming them. I emphasize the importance of understanding how clients perceive value and simplifying complex information. I also explain the need to shift perspective and provide clarity for clients, helping them identify mistakes and misconceptions. I suggest creating a gap for clients to take the next step and ask for more engagement and action. By following these strategies, fitness professionals can add value and build trust with their clients. Love this episode? Share it on social and tag me @bsimpsonfitness!

In today's episode, I delve into the tricky subject of quitting versus persevering. I can't stress enough how crucial it is to understand the fine lines and nuances that come with the decision to quit something. Throughout my life, I've had my own struggles with quitting, so I'm coming from a place of personal experience.

I've spent time analyzing my own patterns of quitting and have realized the pitfalls of what I call the 'reinforcement theory of quitting.' Basically, every time you quit and feel relief, it becomes easier to quit the next time you face difficulty. That's why it's so important to make decisions based on objective data and not just emotional reactions or impulses.

To help you with this dilemma, I offer three barometers you can use to evaluate whether you should quit or keep going:

1. Imagine a future version of yourself. Would that future 'you' regret giving up?

2. Start whatever you're contemplating and evaluate your emotional and rational responses as you go along....

In today's episode, I dive into the hidden costs of running a business that people often overlook. Believe me, understanding the math behind your business is not just an option; it's a necessity for ensuring profitability.

One mistake I see all too often is pricing based on commodity. That approach is fundamentally flawed. You need to recognize the value of your time and services, not just the market rates for similar commodities. When you get this right, it's like turning on a switch that illuminates your path toward profitability.

But profitability isn't just about pricing. It's also about how you allocate your time. I share some of my personal strategies for task optimization, which are essential for running a lean operation. Knowing when and how to delegate is equally crucial. If you're like me, giving up control can be difficult, but it's absolutely necessary for scaling your business.

And let's not forget the customer. Enhancing their experience doesn't always require a...

In this episode, we address the common issue of hating selling and feeling sleazy about it. We explain that our relationship with money and past experiences can shape our feelings towards selling. To overcome this resistance, we suggest examining our relationship with money and shifting our perspective on selling. We also emphasize the importance of taking no for an answer and selling at the right time. Ultimately, we encourage listeners to view selling as a service and an opportunity for clients to say yes to themselves.
