Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Allison Zang, Owner of Absolute Pilates, located in Mechanicsburg, PA, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

At Absolute Pilates, we serve clients in the Harrisburg area and virtual that are looking to move better, feel better and be the best version of themselves. In our private training and small group classes, we offer sessions that are tailored to help everyone achieve their personal fitness goals.

Tell us about yourself

I have been in the fitness industry for over 20 years and a studio owner for more than ten years. I got started in the industry to make an impact in the lives of my clients. I am motivated each day to go up and teach Pilates and run my studio for all the clients that are now living their best life thanks to crushing their movement goals.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Lots of things come to mind as my biggest accomplishment. Having the Absolute Pilates brand become a b-corp is high on my business accomplishments. Professionally for me, being named to the Central Penn Business Journals list of 40 under 40 for my work in the studio and the community is also huge.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

It is going to feel like you are on an island, taking on the world often. You are not! You need to find your support team. It is hard to be the boss when you take on employees or contractors. Make sure you have a team of people that share your goals and vision to lean on.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Ask for help.
  2. Delegate things you are bad and/or hate to do.
  3. Always work with a coach to push you to the next level.
