What's your business, and who are your customers?
Helping raise social consciousness with laughter, wellness & empowerment with my comedy books as a talk show host & an ambassador for rethinkFIT —> www.laughoutloud.life
Tell us about yourself
My wife and I helped to pioneer and launch the natural bodybuilding and fitness industry through events, expos, television shows, magazines, workshops, and online communities. While we positively impacted millions of people worldwide, we discovered that most of the fitness world focused just on the outside appearance of the body. What we are sharing is that being fit goes way beyond just strength and appearance. It’s about mental, emotional, social, spiritual, and functional health too. I am motivated to inspire others to hear this message and give people the realization that fitness and wellness are a full package: inside and out, mind to heart, head to toe.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
We hosted the largest fitness consumer expos in the country, produced #1 television shows, and helped shape the industry. Now, with my book The Ridiculous Adventures of Serbinand, we’ve incorporated those messages of wellness and empowerment in a fun, laugh-out-loud comedy adventure for all ages.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
I would challenge the word “hard”… it is about constantly showing up and doing the best you can. Everyday.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
Dream Big. Focus on the goal. Stay positive and true to your passion.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
I believe that laughter is one of the greatest “medicines,” and when people take the time to pause long enough in their day to imagine, laugh, and be present in the moment, there will be a lot more happy people! We have launched a campaign to help people discover and experience that: www.laughoutloud.life
