From £8 per hour in retail en route to becoming the most working class millionaire you'll ever meet.
I've spent over £200,000 in marketing courses, business courses and advertising so you don't have to. And I can't wait to share it all with you.
Chris Bradley is the Founder, and CEO of The Upgraded Coach and The Glasgow PT. He’s mastered the art of running a successful fitness business and is now teaching fitness professionals the strategies so you can make a tonne of money and love your job.
He’s currently mentoring 127 coaches ranging from £3k per month to coaches earning £20k per month and promises to x3 their recurring revenue in 180 days or less. He currently boasts 8 employees his company.
Being brought up in a council house wasn't all bad. No one in Chris' immediate family had ever bought a house. Sharing a room with his brother, the working class lifestyle began. His mum gave him everything she could.
It was hardly a gap year. But after spending 8 years working in retail, it was time for a change. Chris worked for two summers back-to-back. in Cyprus. Memories to last a life time were created. But once the Peter Pan lifestyle wore off, it was time to face reality.
Living month to month. Working another retail job, it's fair to say in 2014 Chris was lost. Knowing he was capable of so much more, he worked 50+ hours per week to save for a personal training course.
The wake up call from the debt collectors was enough. It led to Chris filling his PT diary and becoming one of the most established trainers in the area. 5 years of trading time for money eventually took its toll however. With no real business strategy, the temptation of steady income was too much. Chris applied and failed to land a "safe" assistant managers position. £18,000 per year was the salary. This was the turning point. He attended a business seminar in London and realised just how small he was playing back in Glasgow. He took The Glasgow PT to new heights. Becoming the most expensive and in demand coach in the city with unrivalled results. Making £18,000 per month.
I think every personal trainer at one point in their career dreams to open their own gym. This was the next step as he opened the gym with his fiancé Cheryl. There was always one eye on the future and it was to be a stepping stone. During this time, Chris learned how to build, launch and scale a brick and mortar business. With over 100 high paying members, the gym had an extremely successful 2 years before a 5 year dream become a 2 year reality...
It may not seem like a huge achievement to some, but to become the first in his family to buy a house, it was a moment Chris will never forget.
Success wasn't happening overnight because at this point Chris started The Upgraded Coach alongside the gym.
A "side hustle" very quickly took over his main hustle.
Chris & Cheryl always wanted to buy property and live in Spain. The 5 year goal was done in 2 years. They will now spend half the year over there. They sold the gym to allow for the freedom. All businesses are now fully online. He's helping coaches achieve their own life ambitions in half the time.
Chris knew there was a gap. He had been part of fitness business mentorships in the past but felt they weren't personal enough. So he spends his time solely focusing on way's to double client retention rates, x3 their monthly income and create the most valuable coaches community around..
