"This book is fantastic!!! Very solid strategies...I wish this book was available when I first got out of school!! Most health professionals, including myself, haven't had any business classes, so it's a guessing game as to where to turn! This definitely shortens the learning curve dramatically!! It's a MUST HAVE for anyone who wants to be a successful entrepreneur!"

I wish that I'd had Margie's book 15 years ago when I started my own private practice. Her guide is practical, refreshingly concise, and motivating. Margie gives us the tools to turn our dream into reality. Don't delay -- get your hands on "Just Jump" and start growing the business of your dreams.

Margie, this is JUST what I was looking for! Thank you and FANTASTIC job!!! ...this book is a MUST HAVE for fitness professionals who want to start their own business. I remember going to Borders and skimming the shelves but none of the business books really "spoke" to me. I do not consider myself a business savvy person so I needed something that was specific to the fitness industry. "Just Jump" is the roadmap that I have been looking for!

In Just Jump, Marjorie Geiser gives us a specialized start up guide for anyone starting a health and fitness business or any new business. Though this book focuses on health and fitness professionals, much of the information can be applied to any new business start up. I found this book to be filled with great steps and tools to help you succeed, including information on finding your niche, your target audience and the importance of marketing and business plans.
