ABOUT US

Welcome to Meet Your Network

We believe every great business deserves a community behind it.

A place where you can connect with the right people, learn from those who've been there before and grow alongside others who genuinely want to see you succeed.

After more than 20 years working with businesses across the fitness, wellness and small business industries, Richard and Joey Toutounji created Meet Your Network with one simple vision:

To help great people build great businesses through the power of connection.

Whether you join us through our meet your directories, events, podcasts, education or networking opportunities, you'll find more than resources.

You'll find people.

People who inspire you.

People who support you.

People who help you celebrate your wins.

Because when we connect, we all grow.

Welcome to Meet Your Network. We're so glad you're here.

Meet The Founders: Richard & Joey Toutounji

Richard and Joey have spent more than 20 years dedicated to the fitness and wellness industry. Richard began as a personal trainer and Joey as a PDHPE teacher, united by a shared passion for helping people and empowering business owners to succeed. Through COM Marketing, they've helped thousands of fitness, wellness and allied health businesses build their confidence, strengthen their marketing and grow with purpose.

Today, they're bringing that experience to Meet Your Network creating new ways for businesses to connect, increase their visibility and continue growing.

Where It All Started

Richard and Joey began helping business owners through their business COM Marketing Group and the well-known platform Meet Your Personal Trainer.

Over the years, those brands evolved from simple marketing services into something much bigger, a movement! Focused on connection, collaboration, education and community growth. That evolution eventually led to the creation of the MY Brands and Meet Your Network vision.

The word “MY” stands for Meet Your because every great opportunity starts with meeting the right people. And Network represents a home, a need to belong, connect, learn and be part of a community where we can grow together.

Today, Meet Your Network brings all of those years of experience together into one ecosystem designed to support businesses, suppliers, professionals and communities both online and in real life.

What We Believe: community, education, human marketing, wellness, collaboration, and real stories
