Pat Rigsby is a guy I’ve known for years now, and he’s my go-to resource when it comes to running my businesses.
And I’ll say this – IFAST and RTS wouldn’t be where it is today without Pat and his guidance.
In this show, Pat and I talk about how a collegiate baseball coach pivoted into the fitness industry, why selling isn’t a dirty world and is all about exchanging value, the two questions you should ask every potential client who might want to work with you, and how to get started with an online coaching business, even if you have no clue where to start.
