January is the most important month of the year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If used correctly, it can be your own personal launch month<\/strong><\/em>. Let me explain what I mean…<\/p>\n

January is the beginning of the New Year, but it can be so much more than that<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It just depends what you want for yourself…for your family, in the New Year.<\/p>\n

So, what do you want? I’ll wait. What?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Should You Lose Weight or Quit Your Job?<\/h2>\n

Do you want to get healthier? Lose some weight<\/strong>? Get fit?<\/p>\n

Or, get Fitarella<\/a><\/strong>. (I couldn’t resist<\/em>.) Jacqueline Carly<\/strong> has done such a nice job with personal branding, I can’t help thinking of her when I<\/em> think of getting fit.<\/p>\n

Did you know that fitness clubs, (the franchise and non-franchise versions<\/em>) see a huge<\/strong> increase in membership revenue in January?\u00a0And<\/em> February.
\nSpeaking of membership-based fitness franchises, Pat McCoy<\/strong> was a client of mine, and his 3 Snap Fitness franchises<\/a><\/strong> are going to be rocking<\/strong>. (Rumor has it that he’s just purchased rights for 3 more<\/em>.) \u00a0Go Pat, Go! \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

So, maybe you’ll lose some weight, and get fit. What else are you thinking of doing in January?<\/p>\n

Are you going to quit your job and buy a franchise<\/a><\/strong>? Really? How many times have you loudly<\/strong><\/span> stated the first part<\/em> of that sentence? C’mon; be honest. You’ve been\u00a0threatening\u00a0to quit your lousy-ass job for years now. But, you haven’t<\/em>. You must like the security<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Job security is<\/em> a great thing to have. Unless of course you don’t have a job<\/strong><\/em>, like approximately\u00a08.5%<\/strong><\/span> of all Americans. I have a funny feeling that they<\/em> thought that their<\/em> jobs were secure, too.\u00a0It sucks to be out of work<\/strong><\/span>. It’s really hard on the family. And, being unemployed can make the most confident person this side of the Mississippi feel like a total loser. Been there.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

My marketing strategy dictates that the next logical thing for me to do with this post would be to ask you these\u00a0<\/em>questions;<\/p>\n
