Remind them that everyone swam as a little fish in a big pond at some point. Whether it be this year, 10 years ago, or 20 years ago we were all small gyms at one point. Gyms don't just establish themselves with 500-1,000 athletes (if yours did, please PM me and lets sit down and talk PR, business and coaching techniques, because I want on whatever bus you're riding). It's something you build on, and a great way for gyms to grow and excel in numbers of athletes is for athletes to compete against the big dogs and succeed. Take it from a former teeny, tiny fish.... There's nothing like the smile of a little fish that just beat a big shark for food for the first time ever. It's what makes that little fish more and more hungry and builds the courage to keep going back for more food... Eventually becoming that big fish it always looked up to and dreamed of being.
