What would it be like to own a million-dollar gym? Would you be rolling in dough? Sleeping in every day, never having to worry about another bill again?Not quite—but it's still pretty awesome. Peter Brasovan and Jared Byczko opened NapTown Fitness in a tiny space in an ex-FBI building for $500 a month's rent. In the early days, they kept the lights off and the heat low, and they posted a sign on the bathroom: "No more than two paper towels, please." Today, NapTown has multiple locations, several intrapreneur-operated core offerings, 44 staff members and $1 million in annual revenue.In this episode, Peter and Jared talk with Chris Cooper about how they did it: the lessons they learned, the strategies implemented and the mindset it takes to go from Farmer to Tinker.Links:NapTown Fitness"Founder, Farmer, Tinker, Thief"Book a Free Call with a Two-Brain mentorContact:info@naptownfitness.comTimeline:2:09 – From childhood friends to workout buddies to business partners.4:16 – NapTown’s first location: a space in an ex-FBI building for $500 a month.5:32 – Defining roles from the start.6:51 – Honing the early picture of success.10:06 – Does a million-dollar gym make them millionaires?11:16 – Growing ideas into core services.15:45 – The key: start small.17:16 – Before you diversify, prove your concept.18:49 – To identify “champions” of your core services, mentor your staff.21:07 – The security of being a $1 million gym: The freedom to take on the best clients for the gym.22:51 – “Loves and loathes.”24:55 – Replacing themselves in lower-value roles, but doing so strategically.28:04 – The challenges of being a $1 million gym.28:29 – Which programs get the money?31:26 – The pressure and responsibility of needing to make $83,000 a month to make payroll.35:08 – A look at the books: NapTowns’ profit ratios.38:50 – How NapTown keeps its expenses under control.41:26 – Long-term strategies for building wealth.43:20 – What’s next?

Peter Brasovan made his passion for fitness a career, by co-founding NapTown Fitness. Peter grew up in Merrillville, Indiana learning hard work through mentorship from great sports coaches and observing his entrepreneurial family. He played soccer at IUPUI and graduated with three degrees and a minor before touring around the United States for Playstation. After a few tours and an investment bet with his friends, Peter got a job with the White Sox and joined CrossFit Chicago. He decided to work for his membership fee between games, not realizing that owner Ruby Tapalla would mentor him for his future career. When his best friend, Jared Byczko, was interested in starting a business, they took their Kelley School of Business majors to Indianapolis to start Crossfit NapTown right before the 2012 Super Bowl. Learn how NapTown Fitness was founded with no outside investments, how it has evolved to be more than a CrossFit gym, and how it’s achieving its mission to make Indianapolis one of the healthiest cities.

"The key to success is to just stay in the game." Since 2010, Sonja and Alex Overhiser have found success by staying in the food blogging game with their platform, A Couple Cooks. Now with over 75K Instagram followers, a cookbook, and national features including a TODAY show appearance, it's hard to believe that the couple first met on their move-in day at Indiana University where, like most of us, they were cooking mac & cheese and ramen noodles. While Sonja and Alex were dating they decided that eating out and making unnutritious meals weren't going to cut it any longer, so they purchased a Julia Childs cookbook to learn as a couple. Sonja, a trained classical musician, found food to be a creative outlet because it was more flexible and adventurous than music. This onset of joy combined with her interest in scrolling through food blogs sparked the idea for "A Couple Cooks." Although the couple resides in Broad Ripple, they are recognized internationally for their simple approach to cooking. They even have a podcast called Small Bites! Pop some champagne with us as we celebrate episode 100 and learn about how to grow a brand online, how to make revenue from your online presence, and where to find the best knife skills tips!
