What’s up, Healthpreneurs! Today, I am chatting with Pat Rigbsy, a long-time connection and original gangster when it comes to online fitness businesses. Pat has built over 25 businesses in the fitness industry, has authored or coauthored 11 bestselling books, and helps health and fitness entrepreneurs build their dream business. Amazingly, he has also written a daily newsletter – without missing a day – for 11 years. As in 1-1. Yup, you read that right. 

Pat’s entrepreneurial journey lead him to be owner and often operating CEO of multiple businesses at once. But knowing himself and his potential, he knew he wasn’t giving his best to any single one of them. This led Pat to learn valuable lessons on the power of saying “no,” the need for consistency to give and operate at your very best, and the value of relationship-based business building.  

He has since become a writing-wizard and happily shares his wisdom with coaching clients that want to make an impact while living their best life. We’re going to talk about the critical differences between physical and online-based businesses, narrowing your audience, consistency, expectations, and how Pat has built – and kept – lasting business relationships for nearly decades. There are fundamental lessons for any entrepreneur in this episode.  You won’t want to miss it.
