Here's the Hard Truth...

The fitness industry has changed. It isn't enough to open a business, put out your sandwich board, post about your classes on social media, and expect people to just show up.

As a result, you find yourself looking at what other businesses are doing, and taking cues from what you perceive is making them successful.

To make things worse, fitness is more available than ever before. The pandemic made sure of that! Anyone can get yoga, barre, cycling, dance, pilates... you name it... from YouTube, apps, social media influencers (with a much larger following than you), and of course, the big players like Peloton, Apple Fitness, or The Mirror.

Your attempts to get new people in feels like throwing spaghetti at the wall. Nothing's sticking, but you know there's got to be a better way. 

The solution is very counterintuitive.
You ready? It means:

Not worrying about what everyone else is doing, or how they do it, because that's none of your business.

 Not marketing your workouts anymore (because there are 1000 other people that offer your workout).

And INSTEAD, recognize that you have a superpower no one else has. No one else on the planet has had your experiences and has your unique perspective toward movement.

There's a reason you opened your business based on what you believe about how the type of class you offer can change someone's life. All you have to do is communicate to your ideal client how it is the perfect solution that they've been looking for. It's not easy to do alone, which is why we show you how to do that.

FROM OUR CLIENTS

Yakira

New York

"I’ve done marketing courses and branding work, but none of them had the same impact as working with Barry because he’s in the fitness industry."

Teri

New York

"I can finally just completely focus on what it is I'm doing, and who it is I'm truly serving. It's a clear path for me."

Veronica

Florida

"Before working with FCM I had always struggled with imposter syndrome. After just a few sessions I started feeling clear and confident."

The real reason fitness businesses struggle is not because there is a lack of demand for their services but because they don't know how to speak to their ideal clients in a way that showcases them as the perfect solution their clients are looking for.

If you're like most fit biz owners, here's why you might be stuck:

1

Running a fitness business looked so easy!

Maybe you're an instructor who went on to start your own business. Or maybe you're a fitness enthusiast who was originally working in another industry, and your life was changed by fitness to the point where you wanted to open a business. You opened your doors thinking that a beautiful space and a great workout would be enough... and you're now finding that it in fact you clearly missed some steps, and you're not sure now what they are.

2

You're marketing what you do, not how you do it.

Most fitness creators and entrepreneurs believe they’re selling fitness classes, when in fact, they’re selling the specific transformational identity that their ideal clients want, and how that transformation makes them feel in contrast to what they feel now. It turns out that people will subscribe to whatever you decide is the best way to get them there, as long as they feel seen and understood.

3

You're trying to be everything to everyone.

It's so paradoxical, but the more people you try to help, the fewer people you reach. it's simply because you have to water down or even compromise on your beliefs and values to appeal to more people. This causes confusion in your messaging and is preventing you from clearly distinguishing yourself from your competitors. You're left with a race to the bottom where the cheapest solution wins.

If this sounds like you, we've got you!

When your marketing isn't working, it's likely because it isn't informed by the story your brand is telling, which is an expression of who you are, what you believe, what you value, and how that connects with the struggle your ideal client is facing.

The Bullseye Branding technique helps you uncover the missing pieces that turn your marketing strategy into a powerful message that your ideal client has been looking for.

Here's how it works:

YOUR SUPERPOWERS

The one thing that can't be copied is YOU. There's no one else on the planet with your unique skills, your experiences, expertise, and is in a position to help the people you're meant to serve in the way that only YOU can.

YOUR WHY

Most fitpreneurs make the mistake of hiding behind their brand, thinking "why would anyone care about me or my story?" The truth is, we are story-driven creatures, and stories help us make sense out of our own struggles and desires. Learn how tapping into your story can be the foundation of a successful, heart-led, mission-driven business, culture, and community.

YOUR NICHE & IDEAL CLIENT

Trying to appeal to as many people as possible, or, going "an inch deep and a mile wide" will put your business on shaky ground. But if you go "an inch wide and a mile deep", you'll establish yourself as an expert, and grow deep roots that will skyrocket your business to success.
