In today’s Fitness Franchise Podcast, Bryce Henson takes a deep dive into the highly successful career of Matt Wilber. Matt opened his first Fit Body Bootcamp franchise in 2013 with 100k in student loan debt, maxed-out credit cards, all while living in his grandmother’s basement.
He now owns 9 franchise locations with 60 full-time employees, grossed over 28 million dollars in revenue, and is the Vice President of Product and Results for Fit Body Bootcamp.
However, Matt did not start out a success story. Growing up as a chubby kid, Matt battled with self-esteem and confidence that eventually fueled his desire to learn everything he could about living a healthy lifestyle, training, and nutrition.
Tune in to hear how Matt dealt with negative influences as a young adult, how asking the right questions led to more success, the secrets to scaling a fitness gym, how to overcome a negative belief in yourself, and so much more.
“A lot of people set goals and have the best intentions in the world, but they don’t realize how many crap sandwiches they’re going to have to eat to achieve those goals. And if you want the goals, you’ve got to be willing to eat the sandwich.” – Matt Wilber
