DEEP-CORE™ Fitness Marketing System
“How To Flood Your Fitness Business With Red-Hot Leads
Every Single Month And Hit ‘Critical Mass’ At Warp Speed…”
Module One

The first module is devoted to giving you the big picture overview of the entire marketing process, soup to nuts, A to Z.  In order to effectively and profitably implement the tactics, you must first understand the strategy.

  • Complete process maps and systems for :
  • Lead generation and lead capture via web, phone and walk-in
  • Lead follow-up and conversion
  • Client "stick"
  • Testimonial farming and capture
  • Referral farming and capture
  • Client resell, up-sell and cross-sell

The process maps graphically represent the strategy, showing you precisely how each piece of the puzzle fits together, giving you complete fitness marketing clarity…finally.  Now you will no longer have lingering doubts about exactly how, and in what order, to implement and execute. Just refer to your process maps and you’ll instantly know what to do (see special bonus listed below – you will receive a large scale process map ready for mounting on your office wall).

  • Database organization:
  • Prospects
  • Active clients
  • Inactive clients
  • Referral sources (strategic allies, networking, chamber of commerce, etc.)
  • Publicity contacts

There’s nothing ‘sexy’ about this at all. In fact, you’ll likely find database organization one of the most mind-numbing activities you ever do.  BUT NOTHING COULD BE MORE IMPORTANT.  Your entire marketing domination plan and strategy flows from your database.  This is the #1 biggest mistake we see fitness professionals making over and over again.  They never get around to properly organizing and setting up their database, and that’s why they struggle to gain traction and momentum in the marketplace.  That problem goes away for you starting now. Module One Value: $750

Module Two

  • Database set-up and management
  • Using Excel or ACT! to segment, evaluate and utilize the marketing power of your database to begin:
  • Lead generation, capture and conversion;
  • Leveraging strategic alliances, your SOI (sphere of influence) network and the media (for publicity);
  • Rolling out testimonial and referral farming campaigns;
  • Raising the rates, cross-sell, up-sell and re-sell campaign strategy, and more.

Once your database is properly organized (as you learned in module #1), now you can begin to leverage the technology for maximum lead generation, follow-up and conversion.  You’ll discover what you need to do, watch and monitor, and what can be outsourced to your administrative assistant…taking the ‘pain’ of database management away.

An entire Module is devoted to this section alone because it is so vital to your success in marketing. Again, everything – everything – flows from your database. After this week, the entire process of fitness marketing begins to get a lot more fun. Module Two Value: $1000
DEEP-CORE™ FITNESS MARKETING SYSTEM BONUSES

BONUS #1: How to create "micro-sites" and use them for massive lead generation and conversion.  Sean and I utilize dozens of micro-sites for our marketing, and you should too. One of the most certain (and proven) best practices is OFFLINE TO ONLINE direct marketing.  Consumers are now ‘trained’ to respond to marketing messages by going to a web site for additional information.  From there, they begin the ‘due-diligence’ phase.  You cannot compete effectively in the marketplace today without rock-solid landing pages and/or micro-sites.  On this special DVD we show you exactly how to create your own micro-sites and landing pages that pull leads for you 24/7/365.  $150 Value

BONUS #2: How to set-up your auto-responder system for auto-pilot prospect conversion. Generating the lead is just the first step in your strategic marketing process.  Without an auto-pilot system that immediately acknowledges your prospect, delivers the promised educational/informational ‘bait’, begins the relationship building process, and makes repeated, frequent offers that solve the prospects’ problems…your lead is useless.  This is a MUST HAVE.  On this special DVD Sean teaches you how to set up your auto-responder system in one afternoon, then flip the switch to turn it on so it’s working for you in the background, converting leads automatically. $150 Value

BONUS #3: Access to DEEP-CORE™ best practices forum on NPE Membership site.  You will get instant access to the NPE Membership site DEEP-CORE™ Forum where you can ask questions, post ideas, share and mastermind with your fellow DEEP-CORE™ students, Sean and me.   You would be foolish to overlook the importance of this resource, and to not take full advantage of it.  In the Forum, you are surrounded with other very sharp, very aggressive fitness business builders just like you.  Each person will be implementing, getting results and gaining experience. It is absolutely priceless to be able to tap into that.  $500 Value

BONUS #4: How to create your marketing calendar tutorial and worksheets. In order to be proactive, you must have a PLAN specific to your unique business services, marketplace, opportunities and activities.  Your plan must be built out at least 90 days, ideally at least six months.  Will it change? Most certainly it will. It is a fluid document.  There will always be opportunities presenting themselves that must be worked into the calendar. But without this, you have no FRAMEWORK from which to operate.  And then you become reactive…which is the kiss of death.  Here’s a sample of the tools you get in this system:

  • Fitness Marketing Goal Setting Worksheet - all marketing goals are determined by 'reverse engineering' your sales goals. Marketing for the sake of marketing is pointless. All your marketing goals should be directed towards driving your business forward PROACTIVELY. And the ultimate measure of its effectiveness comes back to sales and revenue.  This worksheet shows you how to plan out your goals.

  • Fitness Marketing Assessment Worksheet - 10 probing questions that must be answered BEFORE you begin your marketing. This tool will illuminate any 'holes in the bucket' you may have, and show you how to fix them.

  • Fitness Marketing Calendar and Planning Workbook - shows you how to determine the most productive annual marketing activities like Raising the Rates campaign, client appreciation events, community-wide seminars like GOLD RUSH and client contests. Then we cover bi-annual or quarterly marketing activities like client referral campaigns and client reactivation campaigns. Then we get into your monthly marketing activities like offline and online external marketing and offline and online internal marketing. And finally, we cover weekly marketing activities like email and blog posting. And much more.

  • Sample Yearly Marketing Calendar Worksheet - now you have the worksheets done for you, ready to input your annual, bi-annual or quarterly, monthly and weekly activities.

  • Fitness Marketing Campaign Tracking & Review Worksheets - allows you to input all the crucial tracking information for each campaign you run, giving you the KEY METRICS you need to record, monitor and assess in your reviews.

Until now, every marketing program available in the fitness industry has either:

  • Addressed only one tactic (i.e. just public speaking, just advertising, just internet, just publicity, etc.).  Because of that limited scope and lack of an INTEGRATED STRATEGY that’s SYSTEMATICALLY IMPLEMENTED, the tactic has had limited (if any) long-term impact on your business. 

  • Addressed dozens of tactics, providing a comprehensive, but incomplete overview of the various ways to attract, convert and keep clients.  This is like eating at a buffet: you have so many choices, so much that looks good, but your plate can’t hold everything.  So you take a little of this and a little of that.  Ultimately, this never works because, again, there is no INTEGRATED STRATEGY that’s SYSTEMATICALLY IMPLEMENTED.

The ‘secret’ to effective fitness marketing is the SYSTEMATIC and COMPLETE implementation of one tactic after the next, layering one atop the other, and INTEGRATING them all into a comprehensive STRATEGY of preeminence, so you gain traction, momentum and ultimately, dominance in your marketplace.  That is what DEEP-CORE™ does for you.

Three full years of testing, tweaking and refining have gone into DEEP-CORE™.  This is the culmination of thousands of hours of work, feedback from hundreds of fitness professionals, and the masterminding and strategic planning of Sean Greeley and Eric Ruth.

Simply put, DEEP-CORE™ is the ONLY comprehensive and complete, A-Z, step-by-step, STRATEGIC marketing system in the history of the fitness industry, containing all the done-for-you marketing tools you need to get started as soon as the big box arrives.  Here is what’s included in DEEP-CORE™:

You Have Two Options:

1.6-Week Live Coaching, Training, Implementation and Accountability Program PLUS
Home Study Program

2.Home Study Program Only (includes DVD recordings of live coaching and training
webinars)

Option #1 gets everything listed below PLUS 6-weeks of live webinars/tele-coaching with Sean and Eric and 19 other students (20-student max per live class: if you invest in this option and the next class is already full, you’ll be slotted into the following class)

Option #2 gets everything listed below except where noted in RED.

NOTE: At the bottom of this letter you will find a side-by-side comparison of everything included in each option.  But don’t skip down to there now. First, take a look at complete descriptions of everything you get:

  • Choosing and creating lead generation "bait pieces" (reports, audios, videos, e-courses, etc.)
  • Secrets of titling your bait pieces for maximum attractor-factor
  • Setting up your funnel campaigns in the database

You cannot and will not be successful in the long term, and you’ll out-spend your marketing budget in the short term, if all you ever do is try to get folks to buy from you NOW.  Front end marketing dollars should RARELY ever be spent on trying to only get paying clients now.  The ‘ultimate’ marketing strategy is a disciplined lead generation approach that grows your house list and creates your very own ‘marketplace’ of people who:

1.Raise their hand indicating an interest in your solution,
2.Enter your marketing funnel,
3.Get to know, like and trust you through consistent relationship building and expertise
showcasing (i.e. proving you DO get results).

  • How to 'tag' new prospects to campaigns and putting your system on AUTO-PILOT

Now we’re implementing the contact capture that grows your house list quickly and massively. Everything funnels your prospects into your database for consistent follow-up and conversion. THIS IS THE SECRET to fitness marketing success. Module Three Value: $1250

My older brother is a Navy Pilot. Prior to every single flight he takes, he PLANS it out.  They meticulously mastermind every move they’ll make to achieve the objective of that flight.  Then, after every flight, he ‘debriefs’ with his squadron. They discuss what went well, what didn’t and how to improve.  They analyze, refine and adjust. And they recognize and celebrate.  Navy pilots are the best trained, best prepared pilots in the world.  And they execute at the highest level of performance.  That’s because they are rigorous, meticulous and ‘pig-headed’ about planning and review.  They are constantly ‘sharpening the saw.’  This entire Module is invested in teaching you those principles and showing you the best practices.

In Module six you make the final leap from reactive and disorganized; from a scrambling, ‘hope-based’ marketing student – to proactive and focused; to self-assured, calm, cool and collected marketing master.  And you graduate our marketing ‘flight school’ with honors. Module Six Value: $2000
