The Trainers Tribe 011 - Vanessa Birch

Have you ever wondered why some bootcamps just seem to grow organically? How they become not just a group fitness business, but a mini movement? In today’s episode Kyle catches up with someone who’s done just that. Vanessa Birch is the co-founder of Momentum Bootcamps in Singapore. In just two years Momentum has grown to 10 trainers, 17 sessions and 150-200 clients coming through per week. In addition to that, they’ve just arranged a deal with PayPal Singapore to do corporate training with them. So how does this happen? Is it all luck? At a glance it might appear that way, but as we dive in to today’s interview you’ll start seeing some patterns. Momentum and Vanessa have a clear purpose and the way she’s measures success is deeply personal. They look after their team who in turn looks after their clients. When stuff hits the fan, they ask questions like ‘What can I learn from this?’. They also allow space for lives to fit into the business. We also talk about running a business with a partner, being a Mum and a business owner, social media, marketing and more. “Success is 100% from the community we’ve formed.”
