Episode 202: Private Labeling Your Own Gym Supplements with Jason DeRose (GYMSUPPS.ORG)

In this episode, Scott Carpenter sits down with Jason DeRose, owner of Faster Gym and founder of GYMSUPPS.ORG, to break down how gym owners can build high-margin supplement revenue without massive inventory, hard selling, or lifestyle burnout.

Jason shares his journey from running every role inside his gym to building scalable systems — including a private-label supplement model designed specifically for gym owners who want profit, simplicity, and freedom.

This episode isn’t about selling tubs of protein.

It’s about using education, clean products, and smart systems to create sustainable income inside your gym.

🔍 Inside This Episode✅ Jason’s Background as a Gym Owner

• Opened his first gym in 2005
• Scaled multiple locations
• Learned that profit without systems leads to burnout

✅ How GYMSUPPS.ORG Was Built

What started as a personal health and quality issue turned into a gym-owner-focused supplement business built around clean ingredients, strong margins, and simplicity.

✅ Why Most Gyms Lose Money on Supplements

• Competing with online retailers
• Thin margins
• Too much inventory sitting on shelves
• Staff who don’t want to “sell”

✅ Education Beats Hard Selling

Jason explains a simple, repeatable system where:

• Staff educate instead of pressure
• Clients understand what they’re buying
• Sales happen naturally inside the gym

✅ No Minimum Orders, Strong Margins

• No massive buy-ins
• Fast fulfillment
• Systems designed for gym owners — not supplement companies

✅ Profit Only Matters If It Buys Back Time

The real goal isn’t more revenue — it’s freedom, scalability, and a business that works without burning out the owner.

💡 Key Takeaways

• Private labeling creates pricing power and brand loyalty
• Education-based selling outperforms pushy tactics
• Inventory flexibility protects cash flow
• Profit should support your lifestyle, not trap you in the business
