Sometimes there's nothing fancy about it. It's simple consistency over time, as demonstrated by some OG's in San Rafael.

Message from TJ:

What am I marketing to you?

Gary V, a social media and digital marketing entrepreneur, says, "Marketers ruin everything."

I love the quote coming from a guy who spends all day, every day....marketing. I love how he calls himself out, but he's able to justify his marketing, because what he is selling is his honest-to-the-bones truth. He's selling himself.

That works for him, but it got me thinking about every experience I have at the gym. When I get approached about a modification, a justification, or a question of any kind, I repeat to myself, in my head, the vision of our company.

To help people. Period.

By the time the question has been posed to me, I am in a position of comfort. All I want to do is help this person. At that point, I have no emotion or agenda. It gives me the opportunity to set my feet and listen with my head and my heart, which happens to be a strength of mine. It gives me the ability to answer the person's question, which I often do with a question of my own. Because I never assume I have the whole story. It's usually a 'why" question.

Why do you need a modification? Why are you asking me this? Why are you feeling this way?

I then feel better prepared to answer, but more often than not, I ask for more time, so I can give the best answer possible. My question to you is: "What do you think I am marketing to you?" I'm asking a hypothetical question, because I know the answer. I'm marketing the absolute, science-based, experiential truth. I am giving you an answer or challenging you with a concept that I truly believe will help. My time is part of your membership. There is usually a plan sketched out that is attached to that truth.

Who else is doing that for you? Who else is offering this? I think anyone who takes your money should be. That's all the marketing anyone really needs.
