  • Episode 160 - What Would Your Life Look Like if You Worked with 10 Dream Clients Who Paid You $150,000 a Year?
    Oct 25 2024

    Have you ever wondered what it would be like to run your business on your terms, serving only the clients you’re passionate about—and all while making a substantial income? What if the key to success wasn’t about chasing endless leads but rather focusing on a select few dream clients who value your work enough to pay top dollar?

    In this episode Dave challenges the traditional notion that more leads and more clients automatically equate to a successful gym business. He proposes a new approach—one that shifts away from high-volume client acquisition to a high-ticket strategy. By working with fewer clients who align with your values and goals, you can cultivate a business that’s both financially rewarding and personally fulfilling.

    What You Will Learn:

    • The High-Ticket Mindset: Discover why more leads can sometimes mean more problems, and why working with fewer, quality clients can simplify your business and life.
    • Defining Your Dream Client: How to identify and connect with clients who not only meet your ideal profile but are also willing to invest at a premium level.
    • Building an Irresistible Offer: Tips on creating a high-ticket service that brings real value to your clients and aligns with your personal and professional goals.
    • Selling with Service: Learn how to sell your premium services by focusing on the impact you can make, rather than the numbers.
    • Long-Term Success Through Renewal: Strategies for keeping clients engaged, renewing programs, and building a sustainable business that supports your freedom and lifestyle.
