Dave Glaser's Personal Story of Launching Fit Life Champions

How long has it been since you launched your startup?

I began my personal training business by using my name, Dave Glaser, as my brand about 3.5 years ago.  That was a great choice because obscurity is the hardest thing to overcome when beginning a business.  

...No one knows who you are!  After I added my first teammate to help lead my clients to their goals, I chose to add in Fit Life Champions as a brand and that truly began my future as a startup company. 

​Things moved quickly once the website was completed and the systems were in place to provide A+ service to many more clients, locally and online!

​What made you want to launch it?

I launched the upgraded brand so that team members and clients could really attach their goals to the big picture vision and message of Fit Life Champions, which is it is our duty to serve with high quality fitness and nutrition coaching that places our clients' best interests first. 

It was the best course of action so that team members and clients could grow to the level that they wished for their own career paths and fitness journeys together.

What were you doing before?  Are you full-time on it?

I was often times juggling two service industry jobs, while attending Metropolitan State University of Denver to achieve my goal of a four year degree in Exercise Science.  I have been full time with Fit Life Champions for over a year and a half!

How is it going?  Where did you find your customers and what's an exciting goal in the next 6-12 months?

Continuous growth over the course of 3.5 years has our future looking bright!  From year one to year three, we doubled in revenue and will not be satisfied until we are serving 1,000 clients per month; through in-person and online elite services. 

Our goal is to double the in-person facility in Central Denver by June 2017, while maintaining our Private Elite Status in the community.

What is the most challenging part about what you do? How do you overcome that challenge?

Our most challenging obstacle comes with finding the client that is the right fit for our training program.  Our niche has always been working with women that wish to begin a resistance training program safely to become stronger emotionally, mentally and physically. 

We begin to overcome that obstacle by asking as many questions as possible, starting with "Is there a place for fitness in your life right now?"  and ending with "Great!  How does a free transformation session with one of our elite staff sound?"

How do you balance startup with personal life?

I have a healthy balance between personal and business at the moment, maintaining my hobbies, dating a serial entrepreneur and raising a 14 year old daughter keep me busy when I am not passionately serving clients. 

Things have really clicked over the last 3 plus years since I began fulfilling my purpose.
