    Are you an otherwise sucessful business person?
    I know, literally, hundreds of qualified personal trainers.
    Most of them have other careers now because they couldn't make it work for them.
    I only know a handful of really sucessful personal trainers who can actually make a decent living out of it because they had the business acumen on top of the hard work, determination and countless hours needed, to provide a quality service that would gain and retain a sustainable client base.

    The majority of people who qualify as personal trainers do nothing other than line the pockets of the course providers pockets.
