3 Moneymaking Sledgehammers

September 7, 2025 · 2 min read

I’ve been running a gym for 13 years and have tried everything under the sun in terms of marketing ideas. 
​
I’ve also worked deeply with some of America’s top gym owners and helped them implement countless marketing ideas and campaigns. 
​
Not all of them were successful. 
​
That’s bad for me. 
​
It’s good for you. 
​
I’ve found out what works… 
​
…And what doesn’t. 

But there are 3 things I’ve done over and over that I consider moneymaking sledgehammers…meaning they work…really well. 
​
1. 9 Word Emails 
​2. Sweepstakes 
​3. Referral Based 6-Week Challenges 
​There are very few fitness business coaches that teach these 3 concepts. 
​
Frankly, because they take a little time and hard work to implement. 
​
I’ve never been about working with gym owners that are looking for the quick fix, the flash in the pan or the easy button. 
​
I see gym owners fall prey to these gurus daily and with every success story they have, there’s a dozen gym owners still paying off the credit card debt years later.
​
But I can’t truly blame just the guru…the gym owner looking for the easy button needs to take ownership over this too. 
​
There’s no way out of this without some old-fashioned hard work. 
​
I don’t mean grinding either. 
​
I mean doing the hard work yourself on the front end to implement marketing systems into your business so you can reap the rewards of that hard work years later. 
​
A 9 Word email takes learning some skill as a copy writer. 
​
The Sweepstakes is a huge time investment the first time you do it. 
​
The referral based 6-week challenge takes courage to ask your members to help you. 
​
But once you use these 3 sledgehammers once, they give you an asset you can use several times a year. 
​
I’d love to teach you about these 3 Moneymaking Sledgehammers here.
