Fitness Business Owner Goes
From ‘Chaos To Control’… In Just 90 Days
Thursday, April 3rd, 2008
About four months ago Mike Stare, owner of Spectrum Fitness Consulting in MA, was pretty much at a ‘breaking point’.
His business was continuing to demand more of his time, taking him away from his family, and pulling him in all directions.
Then things changed when he enrolled in our DUPLICATOR™ program.
Now, Mike has not only completely transformed his business, but he won the prize for most improved in the class and got a big fat check from us for $1,497!
Read what Mike has to say about his ‘transformation’ below:

“When I started my business adventure 2 years ago, it was a part-time project to supplement my career as a physical therapist. I had the passion and the know how to deliver exceptional fitness services to improve the quality of people’s lives. I had a top notch certification, extensive experience, doctorate education, and even post-doctorate fellowship training in manual physical therapy. That’s all I needed to be successful - or so I thought.
As the business slowly grew, I realized that this needed to be a full-time commitment. I also realized that rather than liberate me by providing another means of pursuing my passion to help people and make more money in the process, my growing business was enslaving me. My commitments to my patients, clients, and more importantly my beautiful wife and daughter were in jeopardy. Not to mention the toll the long hours were taking on my health and fitness.
I was not attending to the myriad of things that a successful business needs to run efficiently and effectively. I became like many of my clients that had come to me for help with their fitness goals: they knew they needed to be fit and exercise, but were paralyzed by the many variables and how to manipulate them to suit their goals.
I believe it was Stephen covey who defined the term ‘conscious ignorance’: someone who is aware that they are doing something wrong, but they aren’t sure exactly what it is or what to do about it. That was me in relation to my role as a business owner.
Thankfully, I got this information, and realized this was a key component to helping run a real business. This system laid out the exact steps needed to convert a struggling business to one poised for efficiency and growth. As a result, we were able to decisively determine how much money to reinvest in our business, how much time I needed to spend working on the business versus in the business, how many employees I would need to hire, how to find, interview, and train employees, and how to reassess our business health and plans for growth.
We are still a small business, but since learning this information, I hired 2 trainers and 2 admin staff, and have already achieved a quarter of our projected growth.
DUPLICATOR™ has allowed us to focus on what is needed to grow our business the right way, and truly delivered on showing us the best way to accomplish this. Even as we are embarking on some major changes in business operations and growth, I’m finding more time to spend with my family and not missing workouts. This has helped me take control of my business that was starting to take control of my life.”
