How I Built a $10K/Month Personal Training Business

If you’re a struggling personal trainer, or just starting out with zero clients, this video is for you. Most trainers are told they need TikTok, Instagram, or paid ads to grow their business. I didn’t use any of that. No social media leads. No Facebook or Google ads. Yet in just 12 months, I went from signing my first client (April 2024) to earning $10,000/month as an independent personal trainer (April 2025). In this video, I break down the exact blueprint I used to get started, including: ✅ How I leveraged apartment complexes to generate free leads ✅ How I mastered Thumbtack to consistently close clients ✅ The mindset shift from “trainer” to business owner ✅ Why retention matters more than marketing tricks ✅ How to scale with hybrid coaching once you’re booked out This is a no-fluff, realistic guide for solo trainers who want to build a six-figure business without relying on a massive following or expensive ad spend. 📍 About Me: I’m Everett Miner, founder of Miner Fitness. I coach clients in Scottsdale & Phoenix, AZ and mentor trainers who want to build their own successful businesses. 👉 If you’re ready to grow your training business: • Drop a comment below • DM me on Instagram: @minerfit • Visit: www.minerfitness.com I’ll be mentoring a handful of trainers on the exact systems I used to go from 0 → $10K/month. #personaltrainer #nasmcertified #smallbusiness #fitnessbusinesscoach
