Hi, I'm Benjamin Pickard. I own Lean Strong Fitness & Wellness in Guelph, Ontario, where we help people 50+ get stronger, lose fat, and reduce their aches and pains, and I'm also the COO of Business for Unicorns, where we help brick and mortar gym owners create more freedom, make a bigger impact, and take home more income. I've got 14 years experience in the fitness industry, have consulted with a multi-billion dollar company, coached hundreds of gym owners, sold thousands of personal training memberships, and done what I can only guess is a gazillion personal training sessions. I've also made a lot of mistakes as I turned my bootstrapped personal training studio into a wonderfully profitable business that runs (almost) entirely without me, and I'm hoping what I share can help you become even more successful than you are now, creating a fulfilling, profitable career as you change countless lives for the better.
