Money - it's the thing we all need, but are told not to talk
about for fear of offending others. In this episode of the Mi365
Business Series, we crack the lid on money making - listen to
Pete's incredible story of how he went from four clients in a
late-night gym to selling a successful business for £2.4
million.
Pete begins by sharing details of his early life, discussing
his time as a personal trainer and being fascinated as to why he
would see people join gyms but either fail to attend or not get
positive results. This simple observation set him on a trajectory
to create his first weight loss business (Shape Up), as well as
getting national media coverage and publishing best-selling books.
Fast-forward several years and a fortuitous chance encounter, Pete
describes his motivation for selling the business and the trials
that followed - from the negotiation table through to cashing the
cheque.
After selling the business and a series of poor decisions
later, Pete describes his realisation that many of us don't know
how to deal with money. Whilst many of us strive to be wealthy,
Pete and Ben outline how it is in fact the love of doing something
which is the ultimate reward and not the material trappings
associated with financial success. The pair discuss the 'Nexus
Point' - the point where you 1) Love what you do; 2) the world
needs what you do and 3) you are good at what you do and how this
should be at the heart of your business.
Pete finishes up this incredible instalment by sharing his new
advice to aspiring business owners - believe bigger, faster and
have the courage to commit. Definitely an episode not to miss -
