The fitness industry is broken.
We want to change the industry, flip it on its head and give coaches the chance to really succeed.
Coaches need a process that teaches them more than just hard skills like programming and cueing.
They also need a process for learning soft skills like sales, client acquisition, client retention and general business.
We teach coaches how to be self-sufficient and how to keep clients for life.
There’s no secret formula here. Just years of learning what works and what doesn’t when it comes to being the best coach possible.
A Simple, Effective 3-Step Mentorship Process to Support the Owner, Coach & Client
Step 1.
Get Clear
ONCE YOU HAVE CLARITY, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
Clarity is one of the keys to living a life you love while supporting a business that loves you back.
Clarity coaching is all about helping you deeply understand yourself, your business, your values, your dreams, and the world, including any challenging situations you're in.
Step 2.
Get Confident
CONFIDENCE ALLOWS YOU TO DO THE RIGHT THINGS, AT THE RIGHT TIMES, FOR THE RIGHT REASONS...
...and the right outcomes and results usually follow.
Confidence coaching is designed to help you raise your self-esteem and create a positive outlook on life and your business, starting from within.
The aim is to help you challenge any limiting beliefs that you have about yourself, your current career path, while boosting your self-esteem and building a strong self-image as the industry leader that you are.
Step 3.
Take Actions
ONCE YOU START TAKING THE RIGHT ACTIONS IN YOUR BUSINESS, THE RIGHT RESULTS HAPPEN.
Deciding when to take action is a basic leadership choice and one that becomes easier and easier once you have clarity and confidence.
Building relationships, developing others, and making decisions lead to more effective actions; but it is the actions of you and your team, along with the outcomes they produce, that will build your reputation as an industry leader.
Do you struggle with:
- Feeling bitter and remorseful that nobody at the gym is working to retain and keep current clients
- Feeling commoditized - believing that your gym has been lumped in with all the other facilities
- Daily overwhelm due to lack of experience, knowledge, continued support and systems
- Things being good, but they feel like they aren't good enough, knowing that your current role in your facility won't be a great fit for the long term
- Believing there's a 'better way' and admitting that help is needed
Whether you struggle with one or all of these, you aren't alone.
We understand the dynamic nature of your business and the challenges that pop up when we lack the right support network.
One quick distinction - at Madlab, we're not consultants or 'business' coaches. We are a group of owners and coaches who've been running a successful gym for 17 years.
We're excited to share with you a few strategies and concepts to allow you to be more profitable, continue to grow and scale your business while attracting amazing clients and coaches (and keep them too!).
We get it -- building a thriving gym can be hard. Here's what a few in our community had to say...
Increased his gross monthly revenue by 50 percent in just 4 months
"Selling personal training has been the best. I used to be scared to try because I thought people thought it's too expensive."
Nathan Corrigal, Southwest Strength, Manitoba, Canada
The highest grossing coach in history of Madlab
"I knew I could make a living doing this the moment I met T-Bear (Trevor Lindwall) and the other coaches at Madlab. I knew they had been doing it for many years and didn't need to supplement income from other sources."
Tom Sarosi, Madlab School of Fitness, Vancouver, Canada
Incresed revenue by 25% during the 2020 pandemic! Revenue up by 63% in 11 months with Madlab
"When I was paid a salary and the gym made more money, I didn’t make more money, and if the gym lost money, the gym still had to pay me. If we got 50 new members, the gym benefited but the coach didn’t, and if we lost 50 members, the gym suffered and I still got paid. It seemed really weird."
Sarah Jenkins & Patrick Heringer, Findlay Movement, Ohio, USA
"When the coach wins the gym wins too!"
With the Madlab Model: “Keeping your tribe and building real relationships with clients changes everything be-cause you really have to become a professional coach or you won’t make it... The Madlab system has been invaluable to me. I can’t imagine doing it any other way.”
Chris Spigner, 7 Mile Strength and Fitness in Grand Cayman
A system that works for the business owner, the coach and the client.
For too long, gym owners have been working with mentors in one corner, and coaches have been working with gurus in another.
Meanwhile, the paying customer, the client, has been forgotten and even neglected.
The Madlab Model ensures that business owners, coaches and clients work together to ensure all three parties succeed.
We help gym owners understand that math is their best friend and that their business is only as good as its weakest link.
We help coaches understand their livelihood should depend on client success, retention and growth.
We help clients understand that having a coach is the missing piece to them living their best life.
There are no crazy or wacky ideas at Madlab, just an understanding of how math and relationships are the keys to the success of any small business.
