In 2015, Corey Lewis expanded to a second gym before he was ready. He ended up with two failing locations instead of one thriving facility.
This mistake nearly sunk his business. Now, as a Two-Brain mentor, Corey helps gym owners avoid feels-good-in-the-moment traps that come with severe long-term consequences.
In this episode, Corey joins Mike Warkentin to break down some of the most costly mistakes gym owners make:
✅ Expanding before systems are in place.
✅ Promoting staff too quickly.
✅ Abdicating instead of delegating.
✅ Discounting rates.
✅ Chasing shiny objects instead of caring for "the golden goose."
Corey explains how mentorship helps gym owners see past emotion to make decisions based on data.
For example, if a gym owner is avoiding a much-needed rate increase, Corey will run the numbers, lay out the plan and provide accountability. He's successfully guided dozens of Two-Brain clients through this process: None lost all their members, and all made more money.
Don't make mistakes that will take years to fix. And don't avoid correcting your errors because you don't have a plan. Get help, make smart decisions and reach your Perfect Day sooner.
