I started working with Rakesh back in March 2020 during the national lockdown in the UK. He was 22 at the time and worked as a fitness instructor and a personal trainer. He was struggling because the lockdown meant he couldn’t see his clients. He had just started experimenting with online classes but wasn’t making much money. He couldn’t get his head around the extent of marketing, sales, and branding, and he wasn’t sure what he should be doing.
During our initial online consultation, I explained all of my options to him. One of my programmes was the side hustle, 0 to 6 figure income business programme, which was a little more expensive, but showed him exactly how to make a very profitable 6-figure business. He was happy with the prospect and was willing to take the risk – he was aiming for success. So I started working with him on the side hustle programme. We worked together to make sure Rakesh knew the ins and outs of the business world, as well as the essential parts of marketing, branding, advertising, and selling. He absorbed everything immensely quickly.
By September, just six months after our first consultation, Rakesh was earning five figures every month. Over £10k a month from his fitness business.
I taught him everything about selling, branding, and marketing – so he started selling his fitness classes online in addition to working with solo clients. With the definitive brand we had created, he could charge a premium price. On top of that, he worked to create some products which have met with great success from his clients.
Rakesh has now turned 23 and is earning a 6-figure income. His story shows that age is not a factor when it comes to success. You can be 20 or 60; the opportunity stills exists. Rakesh worked hard and followed my programme I gave him, my ultimate recipe for success. If you follow the recipe, you’ll have the wanted dish.
There’s still a lot he can learn, and Rakesh is still learning. If 22-year-old Rakesh can do it, then anyone can. He worked hard, sometimes up to 20 hours a day, and proved that hard work, dedication, and resolve get results. Not everyone can do it in 5 or 6 months; it can take up to 18 or 24 months – but the important part is that it’s possible.
