Moving towards opening up my own club
Hello Team!!
Alright, what better place to come and get over all and diverse feedback and cooments, than from some of the guys I have known for over 7 years.
I write a lot, but will be brief!
As some of you may know, I have been in the fitness industry for over 15 years. I have been doing personal training for just under 2 years.
I have an University, and I have a couple of other smaller degrees.
I have owned a restaurant for around 5 years now, it is very successful Bistro style--high end food.
I left the bistro 2 years ago, to school myself once again, and got a bunch of certifications for personal training. I own the restaurant and I run it, but I have a close friend chef in charge.
I am currently number 5th trainer in the company, out of over 5000 trainers across Canada. This placing is based on revewnue, hours worked, efficiency and a few other logistics.
I have been booked and over booked for the last 12 months, and right now as it stands I am booked for the next 8 months as well.
So i am making just over 80k. But i am busting my ass 6 days straight. I barely sleep, and all I see is numbers hahahahahhah and clients files.
I have 18 clients full time, this is the max the company will allow, physically speaking this is chaotic!
I have had this huge idea the last 6 months, its running in my blood and it has become my drive:
to open up a club of my own.
In order to do this, I would have to liquidate my bistro, and probably borrow around 150k from the bank.
I am projecting the operation to cost around 300k.
I also have a close friend who is an investor, with heavy money to put out, should this thing move forward.
People talk about owning their own dreams, but very few CAN actually materialize their vision. Some don't ever move on forward for fear of failure.
This kind of failure however, can put a bullet in any mans head.
Given that the trend : "get in shape" seems to be strong now a days, and people are more aware of their body, what can go wrong???
I just want to scatterbrain with some of you here. I believe that a few own smaller studios at thier home or basements.
Don't know that any own a bigger operation?
Thoughts and views please!!
