<p>Hide your wives, hide your kids, hide your husband&#8230;it&#8217;s Curtis in tight pants!  Enjoy the new intro.  It was a lot of fun to do and only cost $150 if you ever decide to do something like that&#8230;not sure why you would&#8230;not sure why I would&#8230;but I did.</p>
<p>Setting goals for your staff is so incredibly important to the success of your fitness business, and I lay out a simple system to make sure you are inspecting what you expect.</p>
<p>I LOVE outsourcing.  Don&#8217;t get me wrong&#8230;nothing makes me prouder than being an American, but by golly there are some countries that are tickled pink to get $3/hour for your mindless work.  Which gives you more expendable income to get taxed on&#8230;so it balances out.</p>
<p>Who really understands Google?  Just when I think I have them figured out, they go and screw with me by changing things.  But there are some things that remain standard SEO procedures, and they can be found in the SEO cheatsheet above.</p>
<p>Corporate gym memberships.  Sometimes it&#8217;s a long arduous process, unless you begin by implementing this episode&#8217;s simple and powerful corporate fitness marketing strategy.</p>

<p>Welcome to a Special Valentine&#8217;s Day Episode of Fitness Business Television!  Make sure you watch until the end because my video editor Victoria put together a special Valentines Day wish for you <img src='http://fitbiz.tv/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Low cost competitors&#8230;sigh&#8230;it sucks that they&#8217;re lowering the value of a gym membership&#8230;but man they&#8217;re smart.  I&#8217;m not sure why it&#8217;s taken this long for someone to come in with the Walmart model for gyms, but it&#8217;s here, and it&#8217;s profitable.  But as a mid-level multipurpose gym, how do you compete??  Learn my thoughts in this week&#8217;s Ask Curtis Segment of the show.</p>
<p>What are people in your city searching for on Google in order to find your fitness business?  Are they searching for gyms, fitness centers, health clubs, personal trainers?  All of them?  With this week&#8217;s Killer Resource, you&#8217;ll be able to know exactly what people are searching for&#8230;AND what keywords you should optimize your website for.</p>
<p>You know the feeling.  You present prices after touring a prospect and you get that nervous feeling wondering what kind of close you&#8217;re going to have to use on them.  Well I have good news for you!  I have successfully used one close, 5 simple words, throughout my sales career&#8230;and I&#8217;ll have you know I had a helluva sales career.  Start using these 5 words after presenting prices and you&#8217;ll find your closing percentage increase exponentially.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to leave a helpful comment for other viewers.  Not only will Google notice your website URL you put in the space provided below, you will also receive the book from my library mentioned on the show!</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
<p>I am 100% Dedicated to Your Success&#8230;</p>
