Don’t Make the Mistake of Asking the Wrong Questions

Did you know the questions you ask yourself can have more impact on your success than knowing the right answers?
Did you know the questions you ask yourself can have more impact on your success than knowing the right answers?

For example: Spending a week asking yourself whether your sessions should be at 6:00 or 6:30 will leave you feeling worn out without much to show for it. If you spent that same week instead asking yourself what you'd like to help your clients achieve in 5 years, you'd end up with a much better idea of where you are going.

In this episode Dale and I (Kyle) talk about the difference between high quality and low quality questions. I share some stories about getting stuck on low-level questions and what I did to move forward and Dale shares 6 amazing high quality questions he asks himself each day.
We then finish off the pod by answering a bunch of common questions so that you don't have to spend lots of time thinking about them:
  • How long is the best session? 45 minutes or 60 minutes or another time? (thanks Peter from Wales) [skip to 14:40]
  • What is the best course to do for trainers? (Or place to get qualified as a trainer?) [skip to 18:20]
  • What is a good system/software for tracking my clients? [skip to 21:00]
  • Should I offer a free trial? [skip to 22:50]
  • After this is all over, what is a good way to set up a hybrid offering for my sessions (virtual sessions and face to face)? [skip to 26:30]
  • What is a good formula for a 12-week challenge? [skip to 29:45]
  • How do I get noticed? [skip to 34:05]
  • How can I help clients with their nutrition? [skip to 36:55]
