Global Boot Camp marketing With Charities

How to get on the news, in the paper and on the radio, while helping people in need and becoming recognized as the local fitness expert... Oh and marketing the crap outta your boot camp?


picture-31That's exactly what Fit Body Boot Camp is doing with the "Burn the Fat, Feed the Hungry" global charity.

Here's how it works... and how it can be your ultimate boot camp marketing strategy.

First you find a local charity.

Next you set a date to have a boot camp work-out-a-thon where 100% of the proceeds go to your charity.

Next you put out a press release about what you're doing.

Then you contact the editors and producers of your local news stations, news papers, and radio stations, and invite them to your event.

Next you get local businesses, your friends, and boot camp members to both come to your charity event, and of course spread word to their friends.

And because the bigger your event is, the more donations your charity will receive, they will be more than happy to use all of their connections and resources to promote your event, and get you maximum media exposure.

5 Fitness Marketing Things You Must Do Every Month

picture-9

Hey - Steve here with a very special guest post from my friend Craig Ballantyne.

It blows my mind how Craig continually gets MASSIVE amounts of STUFF DONE as he continues to grow his fitness empire!

Craig was cool enough to share 5 of his top fitness marketing secrets you must do every month to explode your business this year.

So without further ado... Here's Craig.

picture-10Everyday I get up and start my day with a 60 minute dog walk here in Toronto. When I get home, I start work by reviewing 6 different secret documents that guide me, inspire me, and motivate me to keep pushing, and keep churning out the content, workouts, blog posts, and help for my clients.

One of those documents is a list of "10 things you must do every month" from one of Dan Kennedy's "No BS" business books. Each day I review one of the 10 and see how it can guide me on an email I'm writing, a product I'm creating, or even just how it can give me a kick in the butt to finish a project.

So what I've done for you is taken 5 of the 10 and applied them to your boot camp marketing. Review one of these everyday - Monday to Friday - and it will give you insanely effective ideas for getting more campers and keeping them happy.

Having a mentor can mean the difference between growing your fitness empire as fast a super-sonic jet fighter or as slow as an old propeller plane.

Think about this for a second...

How many goals did you hit last year?

How many clients did you sign up?

How many boot camp locations did you open?

How much progress did you make getting other trainers to work for you?

How much income did you generate?

How much MORE of all this would you have accomplished with the right coach?

If ya really think about it, every experience in life comes down to perspective.

For instance, if you go to the movies in the daytime, when you get out it seems really bright outside.

But it's no brighter than it was when you went in, it's just that your eyes became adjusted to the dark movie theater.

So in perspective to the "dark", the "light" seems SO much brighter.

I'm sure you've jumped into a hot tub and it felt boiling hot... Until you got used to it, then it felt soooo warm and relaxing.

Why?  Perspective.

The same works with "fear"

One of the biggest factors that made opening six, six-figure boot camp locations in just 7 months happen was...

ENERGY!

So how do YOU experience heaping amounts of endless, contagious, client attracting energy day in and day out?

Simple, NEVER wake up because you have clients in the morning.

That's right, it's a terrible reason to get up.

(The Biggest Mistake With Visualization)

http://fitnessfranchiseblog.com/video/mindset2.flv

When I showed you the biggest mistake with visualization at 7:59 into the video, did you discover that YOU  have made that mistake?

I know I sure have...

So what can you take away from this...

1. If you own a fitness studio or boot camp, spend at least 3 minutes a day when it is empty, visualizing that is is PACKED with RAVING CLIENTS, and there are hundreds more lined literally lined up around the building waiting to get in.

All the fitness marketing tips and secrets in the world simply will not work, if you don't have the right MINDSET.

Your brain is SO powerful and will "automatically" do so many things to give you what you "want" out of life...

But...

You must give your brain specifics...

It only works on specifics. (that's when the magic happens)

How graphic design can completely revolutionize your fitness Marketing

picture-13Heeeeeey Steve here and I hope you had a AMAZING Christmas!!

Lot's of food, family and friends 😀

Today I have a guest post from an ultra-talented graphic designer who actually "gets" how to make a sale.

Here name is Lou Levit from Unexpected Ways LLC and she also happens to be the girlfriend and business partner of my evil copy writing little bro David Tendrich

So with out further ado... Here's Lou!

Hi everyone, it's Lou from Unexpected Ways LLC,

I’ve noticed that a lot of people really undermine the importance of good graphic design and what it can do for their business. In this blog post, I hope to show you a new way to look at design, so if you don’t already, you can see how and why it can revolutionize your business more than you’ve ever imagined.

A while ago I was listening to this marketing presentation and towards the end the guy said: “…and then you give it to your graphics guy to throw in some cool graphics in and you’re good to go.”

That inspired me to write this post.

Let me explain:
Graphics guy ≠ cool graphics

Graphic designer = creative person + sales person + marketing person + psychologist

Design combines images, words, fonts, colors, etc. to show the core of who you are – it gives people a gut feeling about your business and guides them to trust and hire you. That way you can attract only the exact kind of people you want to work with, become more successful, and have more time for the things in life that make you truly happy.
