#1 Resource: MINDBODY

#2 Tools: ZIPWHIP

Text messages have a 98% open rate, compared to only 20-30% for email. Zipwhip is a text messaging platform that allows you to use your business’ existing phone number to text your customers. People are more likely to respond to your text over email or phone calls.

Communicating through text messages feels more personal and allows you to create stronger relationships with potential and current members. On top of that, Zipwhip integrates with other tools and platforms like MINDBODY.

#3 Tools: HubSpot

In order to efficiently email both potential and current members, a great custom relationship management (CRM) software that automates this process is huge. We use HubSpot for this.

You can schedule email broadcasts in advance and customize emails to include people’s names and other features. You’re also able to segment your audience so that you can send email broadcasts to specific groups of people such as prospects or current members.

A CRM saves a TON of time because everything is automated and scheduled in advance, so you don’t have to personally type out an email every time you get a new lead … although it will feel personalized to the reader.

#4 Tools: ClickFunnels

When you run ads with offers for your fitness studio, take them to a landing page where they fill out their information in exchange for the offer. This is more effective than taking them to your homepage because a landing page only encourages one CTA. ClickFunnels is a platform that allows you to easily build awesome sales funnels to capture potential new members’ information.

The platform is user-friendly with drag-and-drop features, and it’s simple to create landing pages that look professional. It’s also possible to integrate ClickFunnels with your CRM, so once someone opts in to your offer, the emails they receive are automated. Here’s a glimpse into what building a landing page looks like:

#5 Tools: Referrizer

People use online reviews to determine whether or not they want to purchase a product or service. In fact, 90% of people read online reviews before they visit a business. Before someone joins your studio, chances are they’ve looked it up online to see what other people say about it. This is why it’s so important to manage your reviews.

Referrizer helps you manage and incentivize your members to leave reviews on platforms like Google, Yelp, and Facebook. This helps you turn your members into a powerful, trusted sales force!

#6 Resource: GSD 360

Lastly, GSD 360 is the ultimate library of fitness studio-focused business training. It’s like Netflix for growing your fitness business.

GSD 360 is led by Performance Director, Matt Kafora—who also owns and operates 7 fitness studio locations (each earning 7-figures or more). You get access to everything from Marketing, Sales, and Referral training to Leadership, Maximizing your financials, Hiring training, and so much more.
