#121 - Your Story is your Weapon - Jason Meland

In this episode, I sit down with Jason Meland, Founder and CEO of The School of Impact.  Jason is a former firefighter whose career was cut short after a near-fatal electrocution accident. After leaving the fire service, he transitioned into the fitness industry, growing a gym in South Florida to over 298 members. When the pandemic hit, he pivoted into online fitness coaching—scaling his business to multiple six figures in under 12 months using organic social media. Jason teaches coaches how to grow their businesses through his In-Demand Model. He’s been featured on American Ninja Warrior, ABC, Entrepreneur.com, and multiple other publications.We discussJason's journey from electrocution to health and fitnessTaking on too much too soon. Your story is your ultimate leverage. Why transition to online when you're profitable brick and mortar? How do you make sure your launch is successful? The true value of warm outreachAsking for feedback. How do you get people to know, like, and trust you? Researching your avatar. Choosing your proper marketing channels with data. Discussing funnel strategy. Developing a marketing ecosystem. Learning your strengths and leveraging them. Finding the business model that works best for you. How do you define success?
