How a Unique Pilates Vision Elevated Kim Out of Competition & Into Magic!

Right, let’s chat about Kim McKinnon and her Pilates studio, Think Pilates. It’s a brilliant example of how a personal brand strategist can help transform a business.

 

Nestled in Albury-Wodonga, Think Pilates isn’t your run-of-the-mill fitness centre. It’s a boutique studio offering a unique blend of mat classes, equipment sessions, and studio mat thank-you classes. But the real story here is how Kim turned this wellness haven into a thriving business that truly reflects her unique contribution.

 

It all started with a strategy day that was anything but conventional. Armed with sticky notes and a window, we set out to uncover the essence of Think Pilates. Through a series of thought-provoking questions, we began to weave together a teaching framework that would become the backbone of Kim’s marketing strategy.

 

This session was transformative, to say the least. We delved deep into what makes Think Pilates special, exploring both the tangible benefits and the soulful experience it provides. It was about expert positioning and crafting a personal brand for coaches that truly resonates.

 

Kim’s realisation that her business needed to reflect her unique magic was a turning point. In a market full of competitors, the goal wasn’t to compete but to carve out a niche where Think Pilates could shine authentically. This is where the concept of impact alchemy for coaches really came into play.

 

The strategy day helped Kim see her business not as a separate entity, but as an extension of herself. It was about aligning her passion with her business goals, creating a powerful consultant marketing strategy.

 

One of the most significant outcomes was the creation of an educational framework for Pilates, setting Think Pilates apart. It wasn’t about being better than others, but about recognising and leveraging her unique value. This is the essence of thought leadership for consultants.

 

This shift in perspective was monumental. Kim’s clients began to understand the value she offered, and word-of-mouth became a powerful tool. Her clarity of messaging meant that her clients could now advocate for her services with confidence.

 

Kim and I then kicked off on a digital transformation, crafting an entire educational Pilates process complete with visual aids and a revamped website. This is where the importance of digital presence for consultants really shone through.

 

Looking ahead, Kim is set to authentically occupy her space in the wellness industry, shining a light on her unique approach to Pilates. It’s a testament to the power of authentic marketing for experts.

 

Kim’s journey is a brilliant example of how personal brand strategy, combined with expert positioning and authentic marketing, can transform a business. It’s about finding your unique voice, crafting a compelling narrative, and creating a brand that truly resonates with your ideal clients.
