Rebirth and Renewal

I am so excited because tonight starts my three day vacation with my family. Every year we try and make it down to the Dallas Arboretum to spend some time relaxing and taking in the beautiful flowers and scenario that the Arboretum has to offer. This brings me to my point of discussion today and that is with the Easter weekend upon us we need to take some time and reflect upon what we have be doing the last 12 weeks and open our eyes and take in what is going on around us. If you were smart, which I know if you are reading this you are, then I know that you have been going full tilt the last 3 months because these first three months of the year can really make a difference in your business. However, it is now time to relax and renew your strengths for the next 3 months. We all need rest and recovery and I hope you will take this holiday weekend to reflect on your goals and the good you are doing in people’s lives. I wish you a healthy and happy Easter and I will see you next week!

If you build it they will come!

Have you seen the movie, “Field of Dreams” with Kevin Costner? Well, if not I highly recommended it because it is a classic. Now, the reason I mention this movie is because today is opening day for MLB. Every year my wife and I go to the Ball Park in Arlington to see the Texas Rangers on opening day. Today was a great day. Maybe a little cold, but the Rangers won 9-1 and it was their first win on opening day in over six years. I know, it is tough to cheer for a team that has only won a few playoff games in their entire existence as a team but opening day is a chance for a new season. A rebirth of sorts and what I want to talk to you today about is, today can be opening day for you and your training business.

You see, you do not have to wait until next year to start over and have a fresh year ahead of you to begin to change. Today, is an opportunity to change the way you have been approaching sales with your prospects. If you are tired of getting the same results then you need to change and I can help. How can I help? Well, I have been helping trainers build a solid training business for years now, and I can tell you that the days of high pressure sales are done. If you want to build a clientele that will pay you what you are worth then you need a system. A system that will have you determine which clients you want to work with and ones that are better left to someone else. A system in which every year you command more for your services. A system that will have client’s contacting you instead of you calling on them.

The game has changed and if you want to build a strong clientele then check out “Anatomy of Sales”. I personally guarantee you that if you do not increase your personal training I will give you your money back. However, I am confident that if you put the principles to work, you will start to build a clientele that will be with you for a long time. 

So in conclusion, I want to leave you with a scene from the movie “Field of Dreams”. At the end, James Earl Jones, tells Kevin Costner,” Ray, if you build it, they will come”, and although I am no James Earl Jones I can tell you, that if you take just one of my principles and put it to work for you they will come and you will realize your dreams!
