In this solo episode of Fitness Business Insights with Matt Robinson, I unpack a growing trend in the coaching industry: trainers who want some online clients for flexibility and extra income — but don’t want to go fully online or post content every day.
I call this the Fulfilled Coach approach: a solid in-person business as your foundation, 10–15 online clients for additional income, and a freedom-focused model that protects your lifestyle.
This episode breaks down how to build that business step by step, avoid common mistakes, and make online coaching work for you — without burning out or abandoning what already works.
What You’ll Learn
✅ Why the first 100 days of online coaching are crucial
