Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: How Kim Built a Multi Million Dollar Fitness Empire with no money, no following and four homeschooled kids with Kim Constable
[1:18] – Kim shares something about herself that most people don’t know.
- She has a close and loving family, which includes both parents and step-parents… who all get on well!
[2:35] – How did you go from never having stepped foot in the gym, to owning the world’s largest online vegan bodybuilding company in less than 3 years?
- Kim owned, tried, and failed at many businesses over the years before getting into the online sphere.
- After her 4th child was born, she tried bodybuilding and finally had success with it.

[7:31] – How did Kim discover an un-serviced niche by accident?
- Her middle sister joined a bodybuilding contest, and during that whole time she watched her sister’s body transform. Kim was amazed and realized that she, too wanted to compete.

- Believe in the value of your product and sell it.
[27:32] – What are 2 traps we can avoid at all costs when launching a business?
- #1 – Slashing prices to make more sales will de-value the product/program.
- #2 – Not learning how to sell your product

- The best teachers are the ones who can make it the most simple.
[34:42] – Quote from Bruce Lee – tune in!
[36:31] – What is the #1 reason most people don’t make it big in the online world?
