Why is this a bad question, one may ask?

First, you didn't bother to spell check or grammar check. That's a minor nitpick, but an important one when dealing with business owners and professionals.

Your idea... well it's actually not that bad of one. The problem is your thought process behind it.

At best, you found that a lot of personal trainers don't have websites, or have poorly designed ones. You might have also found that they have a hard time being found on Google. "I've found a need!", you exclaim.

But you're unsure. You don't know if people actually need this. So, instead of going direct to the horse's mouth... you ask a bunch of Internet strangers who purport to have built businesses if it's a good idea.

Can you see how silly that is? Why would you not try and validate yourself? Go contact gyms, personal trainers, fitness people... whatever, in your area (or on the internet) and ask them if it will solve their problem? Why would you ask us, when most of us aren't in fitness and what works for those who are in fitness doesn't necessarily work for others?

---

By the way, I've dabbled in this (key word: dabble). I built some sales funnels for some personal trainers who were referred to me, and from that came the idea. I contacted PT's and gyms in my area, asking if they wanted a website. Turns out, most of them didn't want to pay, which is why they did all of their stuff on FB, Instagram and Kijiji. But some of them were interested (not at my price, but they were interested!) I was only able to get one client for a basketball camp, and he's been so busy that I haven't been able to complete the project. He wanted to host the camp like a month ago. This was AFTER he gave me money.

I decided not to pursue it further. It was a lot of work for that one, low-paying client. Honestly, that client's referrals were more valuable than the work I did for him! Plus he's a friend of mine now. (Read between the lines)

Your mileage may vary. You may have better results with it. But that was my experience. There were loads of things I could have done better (chosen my target audience more carefully, approached people who paid for web design/social media/SEO, pre-selected people who were interested in a certain type of website).

yesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesnoyesno.

Have you looked into fidget spinners?
And dabble in commodities?
I find that shit even in rotten mom and pop stalls around my area.
Kind of a bad sign.

Nope...the fad is gone. Saturation.
I suppose the Chinese have made their spoils off it.

Good Lord....
No wonder business failure is so widespread...

Why do people want to do this to themselves?
