As a fitness and nutrition professional, the truth is that you are drastically underpaid.
While it really is true that you can make six to seven figures as a personal trainer, the traditional industry is not set-up to accommodate the large salary that you could and should be making. Instead, you’re stuck with a relatively small commission or an hourly pay structure.
But to truly succeed in the fitness business, you must take matters into your own hands, and the only way to accomplish this is if you have multiple income streams. Ben Greenfield, the nation’s top personal training business expert, has written the book “Personal Trainers’ Guide To Earning Top Dollar” to identify those streams and provide you with the exact instructions for easily commanding a high income, creating your fitness empire, and establishing yourself as a respected expert in your niche market area.

What’s the idea behind the book?
Ben Greenfield wrote “Personal Trainers’ Guide To Earning Top Dollar” after realizing that an enormous number of personal trainers, nutritional consultants, and lifestyle coaches think of their jobs as a “9-5” hourly salary routine of meeting with individual or small group clients. In reality, the health or fitness professional has a dynamic opportunity to leverage knowledge and expert status for an enormous salary with multiple automated income streams. This book literally teaches you how to command a very high wage for your client services while ensuring that cash flow is limitless, even while you’re sleeping!
Is this book good for “beginner” personal trainers?
Especially because many trainers think of their jobs as a “moon-lighting” venture to supplement another higher-paying job, or as a stepping stone to a “real” career, this book is perfect for approaching your new career with the correct mental frameset and money-making knowledge. In reality, personal trainers and nutrition or fitness professionals can actually command a salary as high as physicians, lawyers, and CEO’s, and actually work less. The key is information leverage, unique time management techniques and niche marketing. You’ll learn each of these concepts in “Personal Trainers’ Guide To Earning Top Dollar”.
