Mystery Shopping Creates Profit For Gyms

ARE YOU GAME TO MYSTERY SHOP YOUR GYM?
Fitness business leaders spend hours (and money) on marketing and training their sales team, but do they know what happens when a prospect calls or visits the club?
Do they know how and if their squad delivers a beautiful experience?
Do they know what steps are being missed?
We have been mystery shopping gyms for over a decade and have in-depth data to share in the roundtables that can sharpen your sales process. For example, Saturday phone enquiries are generally 50% shorter than weekday phone calls.
You’ll be blown away by what we have found and the checklist we can provide you to go back to sharpen your skills so every prospect has a profound experience in your club and becomes a member.

I hope you can each take something from my words,
 
Thanking everybody for the good wishes and
congratulations
 
on receiving my award.
 
I'm fortunate to have so many amazing people here and in my life.
When I woke this morning, I had been dreaming about being on a plane; sadly, I lost my luggage also! Made me think about the last fitness event I attended, FIBO USA 2019 just before Xmas; so much has changed.
 
Here in Australia, our next planned live event is in November this year in Sydney, fingers crossed we can all meet again.
 
But for now, I share my 2-minute speech with you all..
