Why did you start the business? I built a lot of clients over the years and they encouraged me to continue on my own.
If you could do it again, what would you do differently? I recently started a new program called 3rd dimension Fitness. It is a 40 minute 6 month program that anybody can afford! With this program I am getting lots of members and I don’t need personal trainers. I have created the program and it is on the process of getting copy righted. So I regret that I didn’t think of it 5 years ago. But I guess, this is part of what people call “business maturity” everything has a time and a place.
What's the best business advice your parents gave? Do what you love to do and become the very best.
What personality trait helps you the most? My creativity an my determination!
What's the hardest part of the job? Meeting everybody’s needs and requirements on a continues basis, while integrating new clients.
The easiest? Make people lose tons of weight!
What's your least expensive product or service? My new 40 minutes fitness for women called 3 rd Dimension Fitness.
The most expensive? I believe my 12 week personal training fitness program. Describe your worst customer or experience. One day I wanted to attend the funeral of one of my clients. So I have to cancel a training session with another client. Since this client did not believe my excuse. This was a great disappointment to me because my relationships with my clients is based on trust in meeting their goals.
When you leave the business, what will you do? My hope is to become a writer on the fitness an business subjects.
