| "I recently sold my first package on Monday, it was a 50 session pack for $3600! I rate your coaching 9/10. I would like to thank Ric and Andre for their time and support!" | |
 |
Learne Hawkins, Easy Fitness for Women, Miami QLD |
| "I previously sold single sessions, but with the use of Auto-Closer I just sold my last four prospects 24 session packs worth $1625. That's $8125 and 100% close rate. This program is definitely 10 out of 10. I really enjoyed how easy it is. Everything is there for you, all you have to do is customise it, and do it. Love the presentation, all the forms done for you. Love the webinar. Love the forum. Love all the information. I can't think of anything that would make it any better. I think everything else I want to learn is covered in your other products." | |

The Lion's Share Personal Training & Development, South Lake WA |
| "So far Auto-Closer has made me over $10K, including a package of $6000. The materials and scripts you provided are so easy to adapt to my own style and really helped me see the bigger picture! The best part is learning to overcome objections, and how to really have confidence in yourself from the get go. If you're considering Auto-Closer, DO IT NOW!!! There's no risk, why would you pass up this incredible opportunity to increase your sales, your confidence in selling and your knowledge about selling yourself?! JUST DO IT!!!" | |
 |
Vitalise, Caulfield North VIC |
| "Auto-Closer is very thorough - it covered everything from start to finish and explain the nuances and why things are the way they are. It's definitely worth it. It would take years and years to come up a with a system like this, if you could at all. My first two consults with the program netted me $6,604 and I made my investment back three fold." | |
 |
Matt Daniels, Fit N Focused Personal Training, Geelong VIC |
| "I had a couple sign up for $8,000 worth of training. The presentation worked so well. They loved the client success stories and if you build it up right it’s hard for them to knock back what you recommend. I’m glad I had the courage to do it only two weeks into the class! Thanks for everything so far. I appreciate what you have already done for my business. I’m closing in on $20,000 in seven weeks. I’m on fire. Thanks again guys." | |
 |
Jess Peake, Inspire Wellness, Stafford Heights QLD |
| "I just wanted to send a quick email to say thank you for creating such a great system. We are loving everything! You and your programs have helped so much. Sam and I are absolutely loving VIP Boot camp! This is something we have wanted to do for a long time but didn't know how to get started. The system you have created has given us the confidence to get outside our comfort zone, and start up our own business outside of Fitness First. I'm so excited to see how fast this expands. I had my first free trial this morning - we had 9 clients. We have another trial tomorrow with 10 people coming and ready to sign up. Baby steps for now but with consistent marketing I can see this getting huge. Can't believe where were are in just one month, and can't wait to see where we will be in 6 months :)" |

Robb Evans, Studioz Personal Training, Pakenham VIC |
| "I was impressed with was the volume and quality of information received with Auto Closer. I ran through the complete Auto Closer process and my first consultation resulted in a 75 session package for $5,025. I made another 75 session package sale for $5,025 the next day. So by the time Auto Closer had finished, I made over $10k in two days, and got my investment back 5 fold! Not only that, but these two consults came from a seminar I recently conducted using your Platform Selling Toolkit program, which came with Auto Closer. This is with me still working a full time 60 hour a week job at RACV and doing PT part-time. So if it can work for me, it can certainly work for ANYONE! I would recommend Auto Closer to anyone, even if you think you are a good seller. I'm so looking forward to what the future holds. Plus the last sale I felt just so much more comfortable asking for the sale. Thanks so much - even though I've "hogged" question time during the webinars I've really valued the opportunity to work closely with you both." | |

Drew Griffith, DKG Essential Health and Fitness, Broad Beach Waters QLD |
| "I have been waiting to be fully accredited and I have finally achieved that. I used Auto-Closer for the first time yesterday on my first 3 clients ever! And they all signed up. A, 36, 50 and 75 pack respectively. I am Stoked!!!! Still fumbling a little with the program but money is in the bank Not bad for a beginner on Day 1 of my new business. Thanks to you guys and Auto-Closer, the investment was worth it." | |

Jo Butler, Fitter Faster, Havelock VIC |

The
biggest
package we had sold previously was 40 sessions. We didn’t
have a
system of promoting the bigger ones. In the first week with Auto-Closer
we sold 100 sessions, and in the last 5-6 weeks we’ve
received
around $29K in new client sales. The large majority of people pay up
front when we explain the benefit of getting the payment out of the way
so we can focus on training. Since Auto-Closer and your recommendations we’ve changed our packages to be 50, 75 and 100 sessions. Surprisingly the most popular is the 100 sessions. We don’t give away sessions now because we’re too busy! My concern was receiving a bunch of information and not having any coaching, but I give it 11 out of 10, and the support you guys provide is the key to our success. It’s really great having the confidence when a new prospect comes in, knowing the steps to follow - the outcome is just inevitable. It'll be best investment you ever make. |

That's 5 sign ups 100% success rate in two months (2 clients x 75 sessions & 2 clients x 50 sessions & 1 client 25 sessions - that's $16,200 - YIPEEE!!!) |
|
 Paul Stokes, Artius Health Care, Oxenford, QLD |
|
| "Auto-Closer gave us $17,690 within the first ten days, with a 100% of pre-qualified leads closed. In less than two weeks I have been able to roll out a sales system that smashes our results out of the park, and breaks all of our previous sales records. The system works because it is comprehensive; definitely the best on the market. As a business owner, I now feel confident that I have a turn key system in place to qualify and close all the leads that come our way." | |
 Bianca Aiono, Exclusive PT, Glass House Mountains, QLD |

"In
all my years of experience in sales in the fitness industry,
nothing has come even close to being as wildly successful as
Auto-Closer. On the first go I made more than double my investment
back, and I totalled $54,500 within the first six weeks! The
Auto-Closer program has delivered long term committed clients who
respect my professionalism, which has been just mind blowing and has
revolutionised how I approach my business. However, I'd have to say the
mentoring and support from Ric and Andre has been priceless. From the VIP program, I’ve set up strategic alliances, vouchers, my newsletter, letterbox drops, advertisements and more. I've had 8 consults this month and I'm at 100% closing ratio! My return on investment has been really good, and the best results have definitely been leveraging from people I already know. It's just like we tell our clients, focus on the process and the results will come!" |

Donna Ruschen, Wagga Wagga, NSW |
| "When I first heard about AutoCcloser I was very sceptical, as I own and run a Fitness Studio in regional NSW. Well we all know how tough the farmers are doing it, so didn’t believe such a system would work. Despite these concerns I spoke at length with Ric who reassured me and guaranteed the product. After the first week I started to get a glimpse as to how this system could work. To my utter amazement and delight, not only did my first prospect purchase my program, but went for the 100 session pack (my top package). In addition to this the person was "a farmers wife". You "will win" with this program, I know I did in what I believed to be a financially challenged location. Thanks Ric for the encouragement." | |

Paul Eldridge, Action Potential, Croydon, VIC |
| "If you consider going to Gold Plus
Membership,
but are not sure about the monthly costs, don't be insane. The amount
of tools and systems you get from this program far outweights your
investment. You'll make it back 10 times a month. Auto-Closer provides a tremendous amount of knowledge, delivered to you from people that know exactly what you are going through in your fitness business. They have worked in the industry successfully (Ric and Sean) and know the challenges and how to successfully overcome them. You need to offer your clients something different than the rest of them - this program helps you do that. It will change the culture of your business; everybody will love working there because they will be able to help people get the results they want without worrying about whether or not they are going to purchase their next 5 or 10 pack... The coaching is by far the best I have had with my business! 10 out of 10." |

| “Just thought I would let you of know all the fantastic systems I have implemented into my business as a result of studying the Maximum Response manual. Thank you Ric and the team for sharing this priceless knowledge. All the best.” | |
 |
Jeff May, Beach House Health and
Fitness, Maroochydore |
| “Good morning Ric, just a
quick note to say
a BIG thanks for the Maximum Results program I purchased last week.
Continuing education is important to me so I have spent a large part of
the last three years researching the fitness industry to find the
“key” to make it all work. I have also spent
thousands of
dollars in this quest. I recently found a USA site that looked pretty
good. They referred me to your site where I took the plunge and made
the investment in the first part of your program. Without doubt this
has been the single BEST investment I have made for my business. Within
the space of the first three days of study I adopted a couple of simple
ideas for my business which have already made a significant improvement
to our enquiry rate. The material contained in your manual is perfectly
matched to the fitness industry. While the focus is on an independent trainer creating a life rather than just a living, the contents “translate” well to me as a club operator too! As I type this three people have walked in to the club from us being “out there”. The stuff just plain WORKS! If you are new to the industry or an “old hand” this program is the answer. I am looking forward to upgrading my membership to the VIP package to go to the next level! Thanks again!” |

 Sue Smith, Launch Into Fitness, Canterbury NSW |
|
| “Just wanted to thank you for all your support and education. From the moment I first heard you speak I could see these programs would provide a solid foundation for my fledgling business. I'm already selling bigger packages than before (sixfold!) and am connecting with potential clients that I wouldn't have been able to contact before. Ric & Andre answer any questions I have quickly and clearly, it takes the guesswork out of tailoring the program to suit my business. I now have confidence in the future of my business instead of being nervous and scared.” | |
 Clinton Thomas, Vitality Health & Fitness, Hamilton, VIC |

"Without
changing one thing to our marketing or our operational
expenses (all of our costs are fixed, we have staff already on the
floor), we have increased our annual operating profit by $65, 625 and
this is only 9 weeks in (including Christmas/new year). We anticipate
having a waiting list for our personal training services and increasing
our net operating profit by $100,000 before the end of financial year. If you are weighing up whether Fit For Profit is for you, then you must first ask if you want to success in the fitness industry. For over five years I had been spinning my wheels with my own business, working harder and longer trying to get the lifestyle and financial freedom I had always wanted. Enter Fit for Profit. The hardest step for me was to remove my ego and admit that there were others out there that had systems that worked well than what I was doing. Despite the scepticism and ego, I launched into Gold Plus. In the 10 years I have been working in the fitness industry, this has categorically made the biggest difference to me and my business. What you have a Fit For Profit is proven systems. Systems that you don’t have to invent, tweak, or modify. Gone are the questions of will this work or wont it. It is all there for you to put into action. In case you missed that, let me say that again, you have PROVEN SYSTEMS THAT WORK. I now have a new level of confidence in what I do and with the support I get from the team at Fit For Profit, I have made more progress in six months that what I have in the last six years. So if you are serious and want real success, then it is a no-brainer, fit for profit is a must." |

Diane Morgan, Total Woman & Exclusive Personal Training, Chatswood, NSW |
| “Even though we had a challenging 2008, something gelled in the first couple of coaching sessions I did with you, and I began selling larger packages. We held a VIP night and our clients bought packages TOTALING $20,400! The others are already paid up or going to add more on to their packages end of January. I Wanted to let you know we were absolutely thrilled with that result, the secret was making them a great offer. The turnover for the studio is up thirty thousand dollars for the calendar year compared to the previous year. This year I will and must get stuck into your training program 100%. Happy New Year and thanks heaps.” | |

“This
month we have written $18,201 so far, and it’s only
the 19th! Not only that, but it’s only our second month of
trading.. My clients have been ‘blown away’ by my
presentation (their words!!) And I followed the Auto Closer system to
an absolute tee. It was the BEST feeling. I did the presentation in
it’s entirety and I felt completely confident because I have
so
much belief in my product. It was the simplest, surest process, and it
worked, the first time I really did it properly. I got a phone call from the ABC asking me for a radio interview next Monday night in the Your Health segment. If I had not done Autocloser, we wouldn’t have any clients, and I wouldn’t have any credibility to be able to go on a big radio station and talk about what we do and who we help. The benefits of Autocloser have gone far beyond our bottom line. Thanks guys.” |

"Our
Auto Closer sales to date : $52,319 since opening on January 19th. We have followed the Auto-Closer principles to the letter, knowing that we could not have devised anything better ourselves, and it has worked beautifully for us. We always intended to keep people accountable by filling in their journals, etc and once again, this has proved a masterstroke. As has bundling in the nutritionals, which was also always our intention. Our first batch of clients have just had their 4 week re-assessments and the results have been phenomenal. One client has lost 6.0 kg and 7.5 cms off his waist, while his wife has lost 6.2 kg and 5 cms off her waist! A 51 year old lady has lost 5.1 kg and a massive 10.5 cms off her waist and there are another dozen who have all got tales to tell. Can't wait to get them to 12 weeks and then put out an ad showing all their before and after photos! We are on the verge of a fourth successive record week, so things are humming! We are looking forward to getting more good stuff from "Deep Core" to keep us moving forward and keep us on the path to "global domination"!! All the best and once again, many thanks" |

 Eloise Wellings, Live It Fitness, Sutherland, NSW |

| "I love your the personalised coaching and encouragement. I made $14,840 from my first two consults with Auto-Closer, including my biggest package of $10,200. Cracked the $50,000 last night since starting auto closer! Can't even begin to tell you guys how thankful we are for your input, your support and your systems.Looking forward to working with you into the future!" | |
 Josh Dickinson, Physique Essentials, Wodonga, VIC |
|
| "It all started to happen last week. I had three consults booked, and made over $19K (including a package of 144 sessions). One prospect said money was tight, yet she could see the value and needed to buy it as I built it up nicely! Instead of stressing, I am now confident that when I present our 'new structure' to each of them that they will sign up and will most likely sign up to bigger packages. Now it is looking like I am becoming one of THOSE people. I can see a positive future in my business and not so much going from day to day. Auto-Closer has given me confidence, thanks guys!" | |
 |
Belinda Eilers, Body Synergy, Seacliff Park, SA |
| "Most of my studios sales were made on a session by session basis where people were theoretically doing 12 week programs but bookings were plagued with inconsistency. Auto closer to the rescue! I closed three sales last week in packs of 50 sessions, with a 20% increase of per session rate! It feels great to know they are completely commited to their bookings and myself and my staff can give them the best results." | |
 Julian Gaylor, Perfit Health & Wellness, Ballaratt, VIC |
|
| "I made back my Auto-Closer investment within the first two consults using the program (first was $999, next was $4,125). It's definitely a 10 out of 10, miles above anything else. I loved the structured plans and scripts and the amazing amount of personal contact through the coaching. Follow the program and you will have no choice but to drastically increase your profits!" | |

Carmel Zorzit, Definition Health
Club, Baulkham Hills, NSW |
| "Thanks for all the great info I have received so far. It’s all so pertinent to our industry and great to get past the actual qualifications we possess as PT’s and into the business side of our business! How do I upgrade to Gold Plus?" | |
| Loretta Kuyper, FastTrain, Toowoomba, QLD |
|
| "Your programs are definitely worthwhile. They make you sit down and have a good look at what you are currently doing, and what you need to be doing to be successful... it can be quite confronting!!" | |
| Chad Sorsdahl, The Naked Truth PT, Labrador, QLD |
|
| "I recently sold my first package on Monday, it was a 50 session pack for $3600! I rate your coaching 9/10. I would like to thank Ric and Andre for their time and support!" | |
| Phillip Day, Super Sports Centre, Arundel, QLD |
|
| "I have done plenty of sales training and nothing compares to the Auto Closure. We received a total of $10,842 within 6 weeks on the program, with an 85% close rate." | |
 Mick Kenny, Fit N Fabulous PT, Coolum, QLD |
|
| "I made over $10K from three sessions, including a 100 session pack. Auto-Closer 10 out of 10! It makes you act and run your business professionally. I'm now confident to charge what my services are worth." | |
 Charmaine Thring, Forever Young Personal Training, Mermaid Beach, QLD |
|
| "On the first day of the Auto Closer webinar I sold a 100 pack to one of my existing clients for $8000!" | |
|
Dirk Hansen, Dirk's Health, Bondi, NSW |
| "I have only been in VIP for 2 months, but with Ric's help I was able to run my first campaign before Christmas and booked in 12 new clients from a simple client reactivation campaign. I love the tools! Why didn't you tell me about all this stuff fifteen years ago?" | |
|
Gwenda Stewart, Personalised
Fitnesss Studio, Prahran, VIC |
| "I am only in week 3 of the training course and I have already sold a 156 session pack of 30 min PT with all of the extra products and diet consultation for $7000! The woman just bought the lot, this program is amazing before this program i would only had offer her the 104 pack and my coversation rate is at 100% with a 3 out of 3. And because of the presentation i sold another program with all the products and diet. Before joining fit for profit I had lost my passion and after 12 years was suffering from burnout, I am now really excited again this is what i needed to kickstart me. I really love the forum where you can share ideas and listen to other fitness professionals as you can be very isolated. Thank you Ric and FFP for everything!" | |
 Bryan Beinke, Karmony Health and Fitness, SA |

| Matt Zenner, Zenfit Personal Training, Keilor, VIC |
"Just a quick hello, and to let you know that I sold my first 100 session pack this morning. I'm so pumped. Thank You! F followed Auto-Closer system, and offered up the 75 and 100 sessions (for the first time ever). They went with the 100! My best packaged sold to date was only 20 sessions and I thought that was awesome at the time. Business has been really slow lately so its great to have a big confidence booster like this. Thanks again" |

Kenmore Hills QLD |
| "There are times in your life when you need to forge your own way... This is not one of those times. If you're serious about your business choose Auto-Closer. Proven systems, proven results. The best investment in your business you'll ever make. 9 out of 10. It's damn near perfect. You have professionalism, solid knowledge and experience from Ric, Andre and the program. I constantly felt safe and assured. The scripts and processes are all done for you in easy to follow format (I felt very spoilt). Hearing other PTs questions and experiences during the coaching was great as it helped me realise that other PTs are facing the same challenges, it's not just me." | |
"THANK
YOU! There is so much valuable information in the MRFM system, no
garbage, every word is accompanied by a lesson. I had been so unaware
of all the mistakes I was making, and so naive to the possibilities.
I've still yet to read the manual, have just listened to all the cd's
and 1 dvd, and learned so much already. And these bonuses are also
worth their weight in gold! By over-delivering to your members, you're
also teaching us what to do, and just in how I alone have been marketed
to, I can vouch for your knowledge and skills. Once again, I just
wanted to thank everyone involved and will indeed keep you informed of
my progress!"
Kindest Regards,
Daniel Birch
"Hi Ric and all the gang! Just letting you know how motivated I am to implement some of your strategies. The only thing holding me back is that I am still doing my course with AIPT, but just wait till I have finished. I also just wanted to tell you a little about myself and my son.
Firstly my son works in a small studio with only 1 other trainer who owns the gym. He has been there since he finished college 8 years ago and has a steady influx of clients. I am 52 years young and he has been training me for the past 6 years.
I decided 6 months ago that I would also like to become a trainer and just go about what my son has been doing, but train clients from their home or my home. But since listening to Rick at the seminar in Brisbane and listening to your first CD I can see that my son's life... or sorry to say he has got no life... the way he is running his business. This is all going to change thanks to you! As soon as I get my accreditations we are going to kick... I just would like to say thanks again and I have reset my goals larger than ever now for when I get started."
Regards,
Peter Herring, QLD
"Thank you for your help and
it is with great excitment that I have purchased your MRM package. I'm
currently working for another Gym and have been for 2 years. I've
realised that there is so much business potential outside this Gym but
have been a bit hesitant to make the move.Over the last month I have been ready for a change and knew that a career as a personal trainer at a large 'membership sales' based gym would not lead me towards achieving my overall goals. With your amazing marketing ideas and case studies, i feel very confident in pursuing a my goal of starting up my own PT Studio which I am very excited about and I am looking to get up and running in the next few months. Your help has and will continue to give me confidence and ability to market my studio and allow me to successfully start my business."
Thank you,
Will Lanca, WA
"Hi Ric,Just thought I would drop through an email and let you know that after sitting down and using my existing client database and my maximum response marketing system... I'm thinking about selling larger packages you mentioned in the Auto-Closer web seminar.
I just sold my biggest personal training package to date at $2000,00 paid in full. I also signed the member up for a 12 month D/D contract for group fitness classes valued at $850.00. The client also produced a new lead which I followed up where I picked up a new client who also bought a pt 10 session package valued at $285.00 per week also buying $82.00 worth of stock and looks like training 5 days per week. So I guess you could say $2367.00 in 1 Day off 2 clients using 1 email and generating a passive cash flow of $320 per fortnight using the maximum response marketing system. Can't wait to get my hands on Auto-Closer =)
