Try and get a couple people to hire you free-lance to get some experience. Friends, relatives, friends and relatives co-workers. You may end up finding you like working more on your own. But either way you will get experience. You can market yourself effectively as a personal trainer by being upbeat and personable to everyone you come in contact with. Networking will be the key to getting clients.

Do some freelance work. Post ads, go on craigslist, etc. Do some volunteer - maybe call a local rec center and offer to teach 1 free fitness class a week for a month or two - you'll get great references, experience, and community service is always good for business. Call it "Summer ShapeUp" "Hot for the Holidays" or something. Talk to local businesses about offering classes to their students for free or a low rate. I work with a modeling agency, and we're always looking for people to come in and train our models on make, hair, fitness, etc.
