The overnight zero

When COVID-19 hit, Ellen's personal training income stopped entirely. She tried selling workouts through a website first. Clients bought, then struggled to stick with it: no structure, no reminders, no momentum.

Twenty minutes, in their pocket

With Passion.io she built Fit In Twenty: interactive 20-minute video workouts, an automated 6-week challenge, progress tracking, and push notifications that nudge a member the day they skip.

Earning while she sleeps

At $34.99 a month, with 250+ active subscribers, the app now does $37.5k in monthly revenue, and holds a 5-star rating on the App Store.

Take a leap of faith, trust the process, do the training. With Passion you learn so much about sales and building a business.
