Starting our own business

My husband and I are looking to start our own business. This is a second career for us both. We want to launch a business thats focus is on people that would prefer to work out in the privacy of their own homes or offices. We both would very much appreciate any advise there may be out there for this type of venture.

We plan to keep the overhead low, but can imagine there are so many other points to think about... Such as, which liability insurance, URL registration, website design, determining the segment of potential clients..... starting a business and sustaining it on these tough financial times....

It seems pretty overwhelming at this point, but it's been done before, so we are eager to give it our all. Fitness has been a shared passion of ours for years, time to make use of all of the training and education :) We thank you in advance!!! P&K

Thats why I built this site
by: Katie - Admin

I know how overwhelming it can be to go out on your own as an independent personal trainer. So many trainers play it safe and get stuck working in low paying gym jobs or they quit altogether.

Check out the Step 4 index for pages on liability insurance, building your web site, tax issues, and other common questions. We keep expanding this section and allow people to share their experience through these discussion pages.

All the advice I can give is to do your research and then go for it!

Good Luck

- Katie
