How To Stop COVID-19 From Killing Your Gym

Chris is the owner of CrossFit Catalyst and IgniteGym, as well as several other small businesses. When Catalyst ran into trouble in 2008, Chris borrowed money to hire a mentor and began recording everything he learned on his first blog, DontBuyAds.com.
Four hundred blog posts later, Chris was invited to speak at a gym seminar in Florida. He compiled the best blog posts into his first book—“Two-Brain Business”—which has gone on to become the bestselling fitness business book of all time.

Eight Strategies to Gain an Edge over your Virtual Competitors With Jason Stowell

 
Eight Strategies to Gain an Edge over your Virtual Competitors
People want to buy solutions not workouts!
Two simples strategies to reframe your offerings
Give your workout series an awesome name like HELL WEEK, BOOTY BOOT CAMP, MINDFULNESS and MEDITATION, etc...
Start and end every series with a term of no longer than 4 - 12 weeks.
Put your game face on before you go live!
This a show and you are the star.
If you can, HAVE A MODERATOR or HYPE PERSON providing real-time feedback to participants.
Personalize the first 5 minutes and the last 5 minutes every class.
Ask your participants to share a “sweaty selfie” after each class using your dedicated #hashtag.
Get your FREE classes on Virtual Event Platforms now.
Offer a free and open to the community class at least once a week.
People want to associate, align and represent brands they align with. 
Utilize the 80/20 rule
80% of your content should be fun and engaging.
20% should be directed to selling your services. 
Continue asking for referrals - Personalize and incentive inviting their non-member friends to a class. 
Inventive idea: Offer a free 20-minute zoom consult on making their home more workout friendly

Mental Health Resources For Fitness Professionals

As You Know Edwina Griffin is very active in our women's Ignite leadership community. Last week I asked her could she do a clip with resources for fitness professionals on mental health and how to cope. When Edwina sent the clips through tonight I couldn’t help but share across all our social media platforms and finally coming back to you all here! The feedback I have received from some of my own team has been amazing, and many club owners have been able to access the resource and now feel more comfortable on the subject. Listen and get in touch with Edwina for the meditation tools.
Two great tools to assist you in the current climate.
