What
type of results can you expect for your personal
training business?
Look what some of Jim
Labadie's clients are saying about his products and
services
"Dear Mr. Labadie
I just wanted to
drop you guys a line to let you know about the
new advancements at Huff Training and
BaseballStrength.com.
Thanks to just
a few simple tips from your Ultimate
Sales Kit I was handed the keys to a 7500
sq. ft. fully loaded athletic training facility
in the heart of Bergen County, NJ. Now if
you’re not familiar with Bergen County it has
been ranked in the top 5 most expensive counties
in the country and the monthly lease on a
facility this size would easily exceed
$10k/month. So am I really paying that? Nope,
absolutely no overhead, just a small percentage
of net profits! All because of one technique
from the kit…
Follow that up
with a direct source of referrals from over 20
local high schools and a dozen other personal
sport skill coaches and within 1 week I was
fully booked and in the process of hiring a
staff. All thanks to the Ultimate
Referral Kit!
Sounds amazing,
huh? You haven’t heard the best part of it…
They came looking for me! That’s right, the
thought of their facility never even crossed my
mind until the phone rang and they practically
begged me to come meet with them and show them
how I could turn their wasted space into a money
maker for their facility. The Fitness
Prosperity mindset is a truly amazing thing!
Your
information has taken me from 4:13AM alarm
clocks and jam packed Saturdays just to make a
few dollars all of the way to running a huge
facility with coaches begging my staff to train
their athletes while I simply sit back, relax,
and watch it all bring in more money then I ever
though possible like clock work!
I am forever
indebted to you for your guidance and support!
Sincerely,
Dan Huff, CSCS
"This is Holly Rigsby,
Patrick's wife. Well
Patrick and I
have finally been able
to sit down together and
watch the Velvet Rope.
The reason for my email
is to tell you how much
I love using these
powerful techniques!
It's actually creating a
positive energy for
every prospect I meet.
Due to the fact that our
training business is
within a gym that gives
every new member a
"free" session with a
trainer and nutritional
coach, we do not have as
much control gaining
the interest of
prospects who truly want
to be here to purchase
what we have to offer.
In the past, this had
the potential of
creating a negative
thought process with my
staff. It was common for
them to go into an
introductory session
with the assumption that
the prospect would
not buy, thus a waist of
time.
However,
since we have begun to
implement the techniques
laid out in the
Velvet Rope...the
pressure
to sell is gone and the
power to tell a prospect
that they do not
"qualify" is amazing.
Prospects actually walk
away from an "intro"
wondering why they do
not fit the bill. How
amazing it is to hear a
prospect try to convince
YOU why they are the
right fit for our
particular program
rather than the other
way around. I've had
prospects become so
excited and determined
to become a part of our
team, that they cannot
get to their wallets
fast enough!
Thanks so much for
sharing these tried and
true methods in a way
that makes perfect
sense. I've learned so
much from you!
Thanks, Jim!"

Rigsby

"Jim,
Just dropping ya a very quick happy
and health new year. I'll go into more detail later,
but real quick, thanks to your program I am
ending 2004 and beginning 2005 as such- I
left the commercial health club world to focus on
Functionally Innovative Training- In 3 months of
doing so, I acquired Optizones, probably the most
well known metabolic testing and installation
company. Acquiring them, Functionally Innovative
Training now Vo2 and RMR tests the San
Antonio Spurs, Houston Rockets, will work with the
Miami Heat as well as do allot of work with
Athletes Performance Institute in Arizona.
We also pick up the retail side of
their business selling Woodway, Korr Metabolic
Testing Equipment, Sci-Fit, and Compex. We are
working on exclusive packages where we go into
startup training facilities, train their trainers
and equip them using the Functionally Innovative
Training Method.
Also, of course we have our own
testing and training clients. We landed a
deal with a couple of training facilities in
Trinidad and we will be using this template
in their clubs starting in March. Also, we putting
on the finishing touch to signing a deal with
Asphalt Green to run their Human Performance Center.
Asphalt Green is a 135,000 sq foot campus dedicated
to fitness and health and wants to have a
performance center that rivals Athlete's Performance
in Tempe Arizona and Functionally Innovative
Training has been brought in to run it!
How's that for a Happy New Year?!"

 "I bought
The Ultimate Publicity
Kit about 6 months
ago. Since learning the
tactics from the CDs
here is what has been
'going on':
1) I landed a full page
feature article with
photo in a regional
magazine for middle age
cosmopolitan type women.
The feature will focus
on me as a local fitness
expert who created the
DVDs, The Butt, Hip and
Thigh Makeover for busy
women, etc. etc. They
will also mention out
training studio. I would
have had to pay $2000
for a full page ad! And
we all know how much
more valuable that
implied endorsement is
when someone is 'written
about'.
2) Our local community
paper (pop 35,000) chose
The Butt, Hip and Thigh
Makeover DVDs to be
featured in this years
gift giving guide as the
only entry in the
fitness category all
because of a simple
press release I sent out
with my picks for this
years top 6 holiday
fitness gifts. This is
priceless because you
can't by your way into
this one as it is chosen
by the editors. Oh yeah,
and they will be
mentioning our training
studio and the services
we offer. This guide
comes out the week
before Thanksgiving.
YEAH BABY!
3) I am featured in the
current issue of
ClubLife Magazines 'ask
the expert' column
talking about cellulite.
The article is followed
by my bio & website,etc.
(A real pro warmed this
spot up for me in the
last issue - Alwyn
Cosgrove) The magazine
already has me on
schedule to write 2 key
articles for 2006. The
articles fetch anywhere
from $50 to $400 not to
mention the priceless
promo value of being a
published expert & free
advertising for my DVDs.
4) I have been asked to
be a regular
contributing writer for
OnFitness Magazine.
I
have 2 articles in the
current issue. One of
them is immediately
after an article written
by one of my childhood
idols, Frank Zane - 3x
Mr. Olympia. I think
it's going to be a
little easier for me to
approach him about
writing the forward to
my book "Superior
Fitness for Smart
People" -Secrets of a
Personal Trainer.
At first glance the kit
'seemed' expensive, Jim.
But looking at what I've
learned and the doors it
has opened for me, IT'S
TOO CHEAP!
Thanks for all your
help!"

"I have just received your
Velvet Rope Marketing DVD and already watched it 3 times in the last 2 days!!
The information on there is so useful and simplified
that I know how beneficial it is going to be to my
business.
After working as a personal
trainer in London (UK) i relocated to Liverpool (UK)
and have been running my personal training company
there for 3 years. With your info products my
business in the last year has seen me have a client
database of over 2000 people who are wither signed
up to info products, e book sales, personal training
and now thanks to your good friend
Ryan Lee am now
starting to market my fitness generator site using
your Velvet Rope marketing techniques.
I would just like to thank
yourself, Ryan and all those who took part in the
video in helping me to make profitable changes to my
business. In the UK we do not have 'mentors' in
personal training so i am continually looking at
yours and ryan lee sites for new and inspiration.
I have used your
Boot Camp
information too and have already sold out my September
Boot Camp for 2007!
Thank you to you both and
thank you again for the benefits you have both given
to my business."

"Just a little
history here...6 months
ago my husband was a
personal trainer at a
health club. We had
talked on and off about
having our own business.
Someday. We came across
Jim Labadie's website,
and the first product we
ordered was
Velvet Rope Marketing.
That was enough to
inspire us to get more
active about starting
our own business.
Next we ordered the
Ultimate Sales Kit.
There was a bit of a
mess up with the order,
and we had the pleasure
of meeting Michelle, Jim
Labadie's assistant. He
made a good choice when
he added her to his
team. The customer
service she gave was
exceptional, she always
was quick to respond to
emails, and she
corrected all the
problems we had.
Then Jim Labadie called us at home. He didn't
have to. Michelle had already fixed the problems we
had, and taken care of the situation. But I guess he
was putting into practice what he preaches in his
products. Overdelivery. A quick phone call on his
part made a huge impression on this end.
We have run into so many places that give such
crappy customer service. It is always such a nice
surprise to run into a someone who really takes care
of his customers. That is how Jim Labadie is.
It was in May (so
about 6 months ago) when
we first found Jim
Labadie's website. In
July, we moved to a new
city to start our own
fitness boot camp
business. In September,
my husband began with 2
boot camps.
In October, we added 2
more
bootcamps. In late
November, we are adding
a fifth camp.
Next week, we are
bringing on an intern,
with the hopes of adding
a new location in
February.
And if it weren't for
Jim Labadie and his very
inspiring and effective
products, I know that we
would not be where we
are today.
I just wanted to
publicly let everyone
know that Jim Labadie
really does over-deliver.
We have experienced that
first hand. And as for
his products, well,
everybody already knows
that they are the best
there is out there.
Thanks, Jim."
Christi Faagau

" God
bless Jim Labadie for all of the helpful information
he is providing fitness professionals everywhere.
The content in his kits
has helped me in more ways than I can count. And
it's definitely worth more than what he is charging
for it.
This man really truly knows the art of selling
personal training and getting publicity for
yourself. As fitness pro's, we often forget that we
are salesman as well.
Look at it from a potential prospect's mentalilty: What is going to make them pass up the movies, the
club, the bar, the mall, their favorite greasy
spooned restaurant, and all the other things that
have contributed to their current out-of-shape
condition to instead spend their hard earned dollars
to do business with you, the fitness pro?
If you're really serious, The Ultimate
Sales &
Publicity Kits will answer that question for you and
many more! If you take the principals outlined in
these kits and apply them to your business, you will
be successful, period.
I made 10 times what I paid for Jim's products
within the first month. Look :I could keep writing
for days about the benefits of these kits. Get them
in you library NOW and give yourself an edge over
the competition in your area. Plant some seed in
your own good ground so it can produce some results
for you!"

"Jim, your information is always head and
shoulders above the others, whether it's free via
the newsletter or contained in one of your products.
The short little tidbits of free information that
you share through your newsletter are superior to
the efforts of others who have full-length articles
in trade magazines. Such pieces sometimes remind me
of 6th grade book reports.
I n this industry there are a lot of
leeches who produce and sell really crappy training
products and others whose customer service personnel
can't answer repeated email inquiries after they
have your hard-earned money. The worst scenario is,
obviously, a combination of the two.
What I will reiterate is
that your ongoing support AFTER the sale is
fantastic.
That is what separates mediocre and great
customer service and, consequently, helps generate
repeat business.
Thanks for the "thank-you" card too, by the way.
First time that's ever happened to me after a
purchase.

 "What
can I say about Jim's
materials? I'll tell you
this - Labadie really
understands the 'inner
game' of sales and
marketing. I wrote the
book on starting and
running a martial arts
school, and I've also
purchased a ton of
business training
materials over the
years...
I can honestly say that
Jim Labadie stands head
and shoulders above his
peers in a very crowded
field.
If you're a personal
trainer who wants to
learn how to get more
clients, or a martial
artist who wants to
learn some valuable
sales tips from a
fitness pro, do yourself
a favor - study Jim's
materials!"

 "Jim,
I want to thank you for
all that you have done
in helping me move
toward living the dream.
The house, the boost in
income doing what I
love, the Sr. RKC
promotion, all that has
been affected by what
you have taught me
and my improving ability
to visualize and
attract.
Thanks so much and I am
looking forward to
growth for all of us!"

"I have been a
personal trainer for the
last 5 years at several
corporate gyms. You
know, the gyms where you
do the dreaded floor
shifts and spend endless
hours meeting with new
members, giving them a
free orientation of the
gym and then it's your
chance to sell training.
Over the years I got
really good at it and
always had the highest
sales averaging $5,000 a
month.
Recently I bought Jim
Labadie's
Ultimate Sales Kit
hoping it would improve
my current sales,
although since I was
always the top producer
I wasn't sure if it
would help me much...
After going through his
simple to follow sales
system it all become
crystal clear, the
secret to getting people
to buy training is
asking the right
questions and let them
sell themselves.
This last month I sold
$15,000 in training in a
corporate gym which is
unheard of,
that is just something
nobody does especially
when the training
sessions are $61 an hour
in a small town that all
the other gyms sell
training for $30 and
sell about $8,000 in
training with 10
trainers.
Thank you Jim, you gave
me the confidence to
start my own training
studio and leave the
corporate world since
you have helped me
master the sales
system."

 "Hey Jim,
I just want to say that I enjoy your emails and
your information.
Thank You and your friend
Ryan
Lee for all that I have learned and had my eyes
opened to. I ordered the Boot Camp kits (http://HowToProfitWithBootCamps.com
and
http://SixFigureBootCamps.com) and
have been listening to cd's while commuting to work.
(3 hours each day)!
I have worked in the industry for many years and
have been commuting for the last 8 years because of
the greater earning potential. I have taught fitness
classes for 20years (since 17) and have Personal
Trained for 15.
I am the solo Mom of two busy boys that play rep
hockey. And we have a puppy.
Why am I telling you all this?
Because for the first time in a long time I can
see the light.
I put some fliers together for my first of many
Boot Camps. I posted them at the hospital for the
staff, and posted them at the dance studio where I
am renting space to do the first one (indoors). I
live in Ontario Canada. Lots of snow.
I emailed my "list" about 750 people.
I filled my Boot Camp in 10 days. (20 people) I
have a waiting list.
I have a list of people interested in the ones
that are up and coming. (Haven't planned any of them
yet, in the process of booking park space)
I set my goals. I believed. I imagined the calls
and emails coming and they still are.
Its a no brainer. I get to do what I love.
Helping more people at once.
Building "teams" that support each other through
the transformations
I will make way more $
I will have more time with my kids.
I won't be travelling nearly as much.
Thanks, Jim for the ideas, the inspiration and
the occasional candid kick in the butt."

"Hi Jim,
I just wanted to give you an updated testimonial.
have been running my personal training
company for 4 years now in Liverpool and last year
(2007) I made the final 3 for International Fitness
Showcase UK Personal Trainer of the Year.
This year however I won it and am now IFS UK
Personal Trainer of the Year 2008.
One of the factors for my company's development
and recognition has been your marketing and
promotion material, especially the
boot camp work.
This has helped my business develop so much. Once
you put these systems in to place in can have a
massive effect on your business and my results have
proved this.
I would like to thank you and
Ryan Lee for your
products and help.
Keep up the good work."

 "Hi Jim,
I have to say a big thanks as 18 months ago at
the age of 37 with two kids and a wife and nowhere
to live I was quite literally on my arse after 16
years of being a PT( went into business with the
wrong people and no real business knowledge)
However now I am now flying - thanks to the
monumental success of my boot camps.
I purchased your
'How to
Profit with Boot Camps'
last year around April time and took action and now
that is all I am doing
– just about to purchase
your Six Figure
Boot Camps and I can’t wait!
Currently I have women’s boot camp running up to
three times per day 6 days per week and they are
rammed (ran them through the winter and even in the
dark and the women loved them – couldn’t get enough)
– have every one on a regular Paypal EFT after the
first month and it is just growing."

 "Jim,
I bought your
CD on public speaking, and in my first
appearance after buying the CD, I spoke to 28 computer programmers at a company
called EPIQ Systems (a computer software company). The presentation lasted 20
minutes, and at the end of the presentation, 25 of them signed up for our 12
week corporate boot camp...and I walked out with a check for $6,225.00.
I guess
you could say it was a pretty good return on my investment. Thanks!"
