5 Myths That Keep Gym Owners Stuck Under $30K (Pt. 5)

Let’s be real – selling sessions is an outdated business model.

You might think landing a $3K or $5K sale is a win, but it’s actually a trap. Instead of building a business, you’re stuck in an endless loop of re-selling every time someone runs out of sessions.

In Part 5 of this myth-busting series, Tim and Randy break down why selling training in blocks of 10-packs, 20-packs, or any-pack-of-sessions, is one of the biggest reasons gyms stay stuck under $30K/month.

They’ll show you what actually works: predictable, recurring revenue that lets you plan, hire, and scale – without the monthly scramble. You’ll also hear how to stop chasing people down to “book the last 3 sessions” or watching clients disappear mid-pack.

You don’t want to miss this one. Tune in!
