What is your main product or service and why are you so passionate about it?
I coach new clients in a 6-week program; pushed out through FASTer Way’s online program as well as FASTer Way’s app. After the clients finish the 6 week program; they can join our membership program. I continue coaching them in this “VIP” experience to amp up results and further their education to achieve their personal goals.
I am passionate about this particular program because it’s not gimmicky or spammy. It builds the clients trust through relationship and as their coach I get to know them and their personal goals.
As a cancer survivor, I’ve seen what good nutritional habits can do for one. I’ve seen a client change the generational ‘curse’ of bad health in their own family as they begin to understand the power and effectiveness of healthy eating.
What is one trait of a successful entrepreneur?
A successful entrepreneur is someone who is a great listener and understanding what a client expects and wants from my program.
A successful entrepreneur knows when to ask for help in their business; and know how to hire or partner to their weakness.
