"...be a part of a 4-billion dollar industry..."
"...earn a 6-figure income..."
"...this is the ONLY Certification..."
As our industry develops, the Youth Development & Fitness sector is saturated with these types of claims.
Be wary!
If I were to attach these claims to any other product, you'd laugh. Yet, in this industry, trainers are forking over hard-earned dollars for these types of promises.
For my own humor, I laughed out loud recently when I saw a video on a youth fitness blog as the trainer was seemingly moved to tears over the awesomeness of this youth fitness program being sold.
Be wary!
A trainer moved to tears is a trainer that has no real idea where his direction is. The information came from thoughts and pre-existing knowledge forged decades ago that has been re-formulated and re-packaged so that it is ready to be sold to the masses. It was sold so well that a trainer that probably doesn't make much money, that doesn't have any real concept or philosophy, is so moved by the purchase of a product that he almost starts crying on video.
Be wary!
The video of this trainer crying is itself a marketing ploy to get more misguided professionals to cough up their money for the same experience.
Stay tuned...I'm just getting warmed up.
