About this episode

The episode discusses how gym owners can improve their hiring process to avoid making bad coach hires.

Most gym owners don’t have a staffing problem… they have a hiring process problem. In this episode, We break down the “You’re Hired Illusion,” a simple hiring strategy designed to expose red flags before making a bad coach hire. They share real stories of hiring mistakes, including candidates who interviewed well but became unreliable, unprofessional, and inconsistent once they thought the job was secured.
