Peter Taunton has come a long way from selling popcorn as a 10-year-old in front of his father’s grocery store in Willmar, Minn to the CEO of Snap Fitness. Taunton BC is still giving customers what they want where they want it, buy applying that formula and breaking a few rules to create a fast-growing $30 million fitness-center franchising business.
Youngest of seven, he fondly recalls growing up in Willmar as a “continuous summer vacation” and keeps his second-grade class picture in his office to remind him of how far he’s come. Admitting that his fitness centers do not appeal to everyone, he confesses that his family also has a membership in a traditional club so his kids can swim and his wife can take group fitness lessons.
In this episode, Peter shares his wisdom around how to overcome fear, grow through challenges and be grateful for the life you have today. His humble message and kind heart can truly be felt as he reminds us all that we are our own no.1 biggest fan.
