Eric was a personal trainer at 24 hour gym franchise 3 years ago.
The owner was barely making any money and wanted out
Eric and his sister made the owner a crazy offer
They’d buy the gym with no cash down and make payments over a few years
aka seller financing
Once finalized, Eric worked 60+ hours per week to turn the place around
Their #1 goal was to increase membership.
They wanted everyone to know that two local kids (in their mid-20s) are now the owners.
He worked 60-hour weeks that first year, and it paid off.
The results? You’ll have to watch my latest video breaking down his business model, P&L & real numbers.
Here’s what’s wild:
He’s just opened location #2, which he funded with 100% bank debt against his first location
We were DM’ing yesterday about a 3rd location running the same playbook.
He was looking for my feedback on the structure & lease terms.
Eric’s story is exactly why I created 8-Figure Franchisee.
Franchise owners have an unfair advantage when it comes to acquiring other franchises.
We get deals that nobody else can.
8-Figure isn’t just a community, it’s a Franchise Growth Accelerator.
I’m sharing every playbook I’ve used to scale from 2 to 35+ franchises.
Members have direct access to me & other owners to get feedback on deals they are working on.
Reply here if you’re serious about growing your business in 2026.
Maybe I can help.
Cheers!
Brian
