We were lucky to catch up with Jason Kozma recently and have shared our conversation below.
Jason, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Can you share a customer success story with us?
Jason Kozma is a diligent and motivating trainer with a team of excellent trainers on his roster! I lost 25 pounds in three months (three dress sizes, four pant sizes, & one bra size) and am the strongest I’ve ever been. Jason set me up on a nutrition plan that was difficult at first but became routine. He paired me for weight training with Jerry, who has become like family. I’m still going three days a week to train and doing more cardio than I did in my teens and twenties. I cannot recommend Jason and his team enough!
Jason, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
High Performance Personal Training provides personal training, in home personal training, online personal training and custom nutritional plans. Founded in 1997.
Soon after establishing myself in LA as a personal trainer, (and as the second personal trainer with a website in the Los Angeles area) I found that I was dealing with more demand than I could accommodate. I started adding trainers to my team, providing them with the knowledge and training necessary to provide the High Performance method- the key elements of my training.
I actually invented online personal training. It did not exist before I put it on my website. This was before online payment systems were available. People would mail me a check and I would email them their training and nutrition program.
I am a former competitive bodybuilder having won several shows as a ten anger including the teen Southern States, Tennessee Valley Championships and Kentucky Derby Championships.
I returned to bodybuilding competition later after successfully establishing and nurturing my personal training business.
My later contest exploits include the Mr. California, Mr. San Francisco, and wins at Mr. Muscle Beach and Mr. America.
I and my team have trained hundreds of clients from all walks of life to transform their bodies, lifestyles and live healthier and more fulfilling lives.
I call my clients whom I’ve trained and coached for physique competitions my Champions. My Champions include winners at Muscle Beach, Musclemania, NPC competitions, Miss Figure America and more.
My website features somewhere close to 100 sets of client before and after photos and many inspiring client testimonials. Clients flock to my business not because I’m Mr. America but because of the amazing results my program can provide.
Any fun sales or marketing stories?
I met with a potential client one time and she didn’t want to sign up right away. We did not have good chemistry I guess. She said she wanted to meet with a few other trainers first. She made another appointment 2 weeks later and signed up. She said the other trainers didn’t reply to messages and one didn’t show up to their meeting.
Ha!
One of my sweetest sales.
Any advice for growing your clientele? What’s been most effective for you?
Creating results and putting the client’s needs first.
