Learn About The Possibilities Of Online Personal Training, With Jon Goodman - PT COREntrepreneur Podcast



Communication is easier than ever before. Computers and the Internet allow us to reach out to people around the globe from the comfort of our own homes and offices.

Traditionally, personal training has been confined to the gym in face-to-face sessions or in the privacy of a client’s home. Today, personal trainers are turning to online training as a way to build up a nationwide and international client bases. 

Many trainers make the transition to conducting online courses without a clear idea of what this involves. What if there was a way to gain the necessary knowledge to become a world-class online trainer?

The Online Trainer Academy provides just that. The creator, Jon Goodman, aims to equip trainers with the tools they need in order to create a successful online training business and avoid common pitfalls. The course is fully certified, which gives online trainers legitimacy in the eyes of potential and existing clients.

I teach people the business aspects of gaining clients online and building up a solid business structure
