"Demand is good. A full gym is good. A full roster of personal training clients is good. But a full roster of clients doesn’t necessarily mean you’re going to be making an income that is reflective of your talents. There is money to be made in this industry.

There is no reason why a qualified and experienced SSC should be out-earned by less-talented and less-knowledgeable personal trainers, or by those selling snake-oil and false promises."

Second that.

Thanks for writing this Andy. There's tons of helpful observations here.

Getting over charging more money was one of the hardest things I had to do getting into business.

Many of the subjects you talk about Andy relate so much to many small business. Ours included.
We also look for a demographic that puts quality before pricing.
Thanks for writing this and the reminder.
