Does being a good coach make you a good gym owner?
In today’s episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” host Mike Warkentin dives into this question with one of the top coaches in the world, Ben Bergeron.
Ben has trained numerous CrossFit Games and Affiliate Cup champions, and he’s also the founder of CrossFit New England and CompTrain, as well as the author of the book “Chasing Excellence.”
According to Ben, it takes a lot more than just a passion for coaching if you want to run a successful gym in 2024.
He dials in on a few essential business skills for gym owners: building and leading a team, understanding your financials, and being—or having—a high-level coach.
Another key question Ben addresses: Will your gym be successful if you get an athlete to the CrossFit Games?
To hear more from Ben and other incredible speakers such as Jason Khalipa and Brian “Tosh” Chontosh, get your tickets to the Two-Brain Summit, June 8 and 9 in Chicago, via the link below.
