π Build a Personal Training Studio You Own
A personal training franchise runs $260,000 to $880,000 to open. Then 7 to 10% of your gross leaves every year, for as long as the agreement runs. And you never own the brand.
Personal Training Profits is the independent alternative. Keep the brand, keep the equity, pay no royalty.
One trainer in 850 sq ft can gross around $140,000 a year and keep $100,000+ before tax.
In 1996 I presented a model to Nautilus on the three reasons people avoid gyms: intimidation, results and time. The industry solved two and built a category worth billions. The third is still open.
Examples: Renouf, Perth, over $1M a year, co-founder. Just Results, Ohio, franchise-ready by 2000, founder. An 850 sq ft studio in Oakwood paying its owner $100K+ a year for a decade. I coached the owner.
