Have you really thought about who the hero is in your business?   Do you let your audience feel they are more important and that they matter?   What is the culture like in your gym and in your fitness business?   Pete Dupuis is one of the few fitness professionals who identify specifically as a "business guy." He has served as the Vice President and Business Director of Cressey Sports Performance since co-founding the company in 2007. With an MBA from Babson College, more than a decade of fitness industry experience, and a profound appreciation for the nitty-gritty realities of managing a fitness facility, he brings a unique perspective to discussions surrounding the business of fitness. Most importantly, he is a proud husband to Katie and father to Collin and Owen Dupuis.   In this episode, Pete shares how your customers should be the hero in your business. The way you create your content and create your marketing message should speak to them. Even his idea of visibility on social media is not about becoming an influencer but engaging with your audience on a deeper level and with authenticity. He means it to be built around creating and deepening relationships that span a lifetime.   Even with building your website, it has to tell them a story and send a message of how you can help them. Once you can clearly articulate that, your target market will resonate with you and ultimately you will have them work with you.   He also underscores the fact about gym culture, where it's all focused on the customer. You may keep a corporate air running around your business, but the bottom line should be all about your client.   Finding it awkward to talk about the pricing issue and raising prices? Pete got you covered on crossing this very sensitive topic without burning bridges.   When all we know are businesses closing during this pandemic, let us, this time hear how a different thing happened to his own business. "Who we are isn't about what we dictate. Our gym culture is driven by the people in the gym. Now, a part of that equation is my team. But my team isn't out there disseminating a corporately dictated culture message. They're out there interacting with people. And I think that the clients at any given time, are more the culture of our gym than the staff who's servicing them." - Pete Dupuis   What you will learn from this episode:   01:17 - Creating a website with a compelling layout that tells a story of what you do and who you want to help 05:04 - Making sure the audience feels important over making them think you are important 09:15 - Lessons about brand positioning and finding the right message to speak to your audience 13:58 - Studying the art of social media not in terms of becoming influencers but one of stimulating creativity 17:02 - His concept of gym culture, and holding corporate tendencies but never losing sight of who you truly are 21:42 - The issues that most gyms commonly face  24:09 - His thoughts around raising prices and how to tackle this issue in good terms 29:26 - Sharing experiences the opposite of what most gym owners are experiencing during this time of COVID 34:29 - What has COVID allowed him and his business  37:04 - Important life lessons his kids are teaching him 41:39 - Resetting all the time Connect with Pete Dupuis: Instagram pete@businessforunicorns Connect with Gavin McHale: maverickcoachingacademy.ca LinkedIn Instagram

Hosted by CSP co-founder Pete Dupuis, CSP-MA Director of Performance John O'Neil and Director of Pitching Jordan Kraus talk about the range of options available for summer player development, how players can best evaluate their summer situation and make the best decision for their career, and how CSP-MA models their summer program to maximize the development of the individual.

One of the biggest struggles that we have heard business owners share with us over the years is the issue of employee and instructor turnover. You may be someone who as experienced someone leaving and either starting something that directly competes with you, or joining a competitor. It's maddening, and it can leave you wondering how to make those employees stay. However, too often, we see business owners turn to means like non-competes and other ways to trap their team members.   That's why we decided to bring back a past guest to speak with us about how to create an environment that your team craves- and we think you might be surprised by some of the counterintuitive ways that he suggests that you accomplish this- one of them being that it's essential that you recognize that it's most likely that you're not paying a high enough wage for them to consider their employment with you the pinnacle of the career, and you therefore need to adjust the way you think of your relationship with them.   We also discuss some other management and leadership hacks (each of them as counterintuitive and paradoxical as the last) which will help put you in a position where you're creating a thriving work environment, and learning from mistakes as you continue to grow.

Mark is back with another bonus episode of the season...In this bonus episode, Pete and Eric explain how they built a massive fitness brand without paid digital marketing. We also discuss what actions and steps you can take to start developing relationships to grow your business.

Niche development can be really scary! If your thought process goes something like this… “if I make myself appealing to more people, and market myself to a larger audience, then I'll wind up getting more clients!” ...unfortunately, this strategy simply doesn't work.   As a fitness professional, it's essential that you build a reputation for being the BEST at one particular thing. Not only will it help you gain more clients through clear messaging, but like you'll hear our guest say...   ...If you have the reputation at being the best at something, you are widely assumed to be far better than average at everything else.   In this episode we'll break down how you can begin to hone in on that special group of people that you are uniquely equipped to serve in order to become a sought-after expert.
