Well it is official. I am officially a Certified Personal Fitness Trainer (well, I told you that a few weeks ago). But of course that didn't mean I could go out and grab some guy or gal off the street and start barking orders to "Exhale with the effort!" Nope, had to get some ducks in a row.

So I did...


I applied for my business license. I got word on Friday that's it's cleared. Just need to get it in the mail.
I set up my fitness studio.
I set up my website at www.journeyfitnessonline.com
I acquired my Liability Insurance, in case I break a client.
I set up an online program for training people who are not local. I've done so much email support with people over the years, that I've had people ask if I was ever going to offer it as a service. Well now I do!
I even made a spreadsheet.

I still have some other things that need to be done, and an expanding to-do list, but I suppose that's typical. Now I just have to sit back and let the clients come flocking to me. Any time now, clients. Flock away!

Hmmm...maybe that's not how it happens.

Oh well, I'm extra excited about this, though. I would love to be too busy, but I don't suppose that will happen. I have had a few nibbles already, and I am going to advertise for my half marathon training program that starts in August for the Seattle Half Marathon. It'll be fun! I'll yap EVERYONE'S ears off and they'll not even realize they ran that far!
