Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in business development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Jim Thomas, President of Fitness Management & Consulting, located in Flower Mound, TX, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
We are a business and sales consulting firm that serves gym owners and operators.
Tell us about yourself
I was a member of a gym and was recruited into sales. In part, my motivation is to provide what was provided for me when I was a gym owner... lots of help and feedback. I enjoy helping others accomplish their life goals.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Probably no one thing, but in many cases, I have helped gym owners to save their business that was previously losing 10k+ each month.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
The key is to successfully identify other business owners (clients) that are ready to make a change.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Get proper funding.
- Don't go it alone (surround yourself with experts).
- Become an expert in sales and marketing.
