This is the question nine fitness business experts answered in a powerful new video series that we just published for our Marketing Resources Category.
This series answers frequently asked questions about customers, marketing, pricing, building community, social media, and more. Don’t miss these experts speaking from experience — and from the heart — about how exactly they built and help others build, sustainable, popular fitness businesses.
In 2018 TeamUp cemented the idea that our number one audience and the people we care most about are the customers we already have. Although everyone in the fitness industry is important to us, our efforts lean strongly to helping the customers we have be extra successful.
This focus has allowed us to build big, exciting projects of value for customers (check out the Fitness Journey Project, out soon!). These projects are meant to support, guide, and encourage independent fitness business owners to build the best businesses they can.
A big shout out to the experts in these series. They have incredible insight and give clear exact advice. We are forever impressed with their guidance:
