   How Microgyms Can Win December

   It's December, and a lot of people are distracted by holiday preparations. It's usually the month where gym owners generally see a dip in revenue because members stop going to the gym.

But it doesn't have to be that way. In today's episode, Bob shares three actionable ways for gym owners to win December. These tactics are the same ones that he uses for his gyms, and they actually work! So don’t be crushed by the holidays.

    The Missing Piece of the Puzzle in Entrepreneurship

    This week on Unleashing Greatness, Bob welcomes Dan Holguin, an ultra athlete and fitness coach, writer, transformational speaker, and entrepreneur. Dan has quite a story to tell. Before coaching high performers around the world and competing on NBC's American Ninja Warrior, he was deeply lost after finding his longtime coach/mentor lifeless in bed. That was probably the darkest moment in his life. He hit rock bottom. Then a friend presented him with an opportunity to regain control of his life, and in that moment, Dan took a leap of faith and massive action to make a change for the better. He started trail running, eating better, smiling more, and found peace while spending time in Montana's Glacier National Park. Dan did more than bounce back. He built a wildly successful fitness coaching business helping people regain balance in their health and lifestyle by focusing on eight key elements which he outlines in his book Peak Performance Past 30 (https://www.amazon.com/Dan-Holguin/e/B07BH77HTP%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share). “I choose to lead from the front.

    Unleashing Greatness is the one place to find everything you need to know about starting a business from scratch and scaling it beyond your wildest imagination while not losing yourself in the process. Learn from a guy who went from getting kicked out of Catholic school, to starting his first fitness business in a basement and then scaling it to over 20+ locations and over 10M in annual revenue, before almost losing it all, getting it back, and finding his way back to Christ. Each week Bob shares with you something from his playbook to help you move forward faster in your marketing, sales, leadership, and life. Be sure to follow the podcast NOW so you can unleash your greatness.
