Jay Croft creates original content for trainers, gyms and studios. Everywhere you write, speak, or create video, you are a copywriter. I rounded up a professional...

She Means Fitness Business

If you’re hoping to create a retreat or simply to deepen relationships and loyalty among your clients and members, (as we all should), then you’ll love this. From hosting retreats for more than a decade I learn something new every time. My retreats look very different from the first I hosted over a decade ago.

Among the most fun activities we did during a recent 4 ½ day retreat was charades. We also held a team...

How to Get Your First Midlife Coaching Client

She Means Fitness Business

Ask. If you want to get your first midlife coaching client (or your hundredth) you’ll have to ask. As you listen, this is a day in the week that ends in “y.” If you didn’t ask someone to become a client and you want clients, are your actions congruent with what it is you say you want?

To get your first midlife coaching client isn’t hard given women tend to seek trainers and support...

How do you see yourself? Educator, healer, entrepreneur?

My guest founded an education company, a product development company, and while she runs them as CEO, she continues to educate on benefits and use of products. But she started without the vision of where she is today. She knew she had something and she just kept going. She did it backwards, she did it when others said you can’t do that.

So, if you’re wondering if you can, if you should, or you are swimming upstream surrounded by people who are used to doing it the way it’s always been done and you are getting looks like, are you crazy? You might just be in the exact right place.

Some of the most successful, the artists, the inventors weren’t popular at first. They were ridiculed. Don’t be too quick to give in or to simply do it status quo. Need a little dose of inspiration? This might be it!
