Riches in Niches: Why Bill Parisi Focuses on Making Kids Faster

What happens when you find your niche in the fitness industry? Bill Parisi turned his passion for youth performance into a multi-million-dollar business.

His company, Parisi Speed School, has more than 100 facilities around the world and has served over one million athletes, including more than 130 eventual NFL draft picks.

But Bill isn’t focused on the guys who run world-class 40-yard dashes at the NFL Combine. They appear later because he’s locked in on helping younger kids get faster so they make the team, play more and develop character through sport.

In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” host Mike Warkentin sits down with Bill, who shares how he identified his specialty in the youth performance niche: speed training. Bill narrowed his focus very early in his career, and he offers gym owners tips on finding their own niches.

Bill says you must figure out what area of fitness you’re most passionate about and then become an expert in it.

If you couple expertise with sound business practices, your niche can make you rich as you help others accomplish their health and fitness goals.

Bill will be sharing more of his knowledge at the Two-Brain Summit on June 8 and 9 in Chicago to help coaches further their careers and stand out in a crowd.
