ADVICE

Retention Beats Chasing New Leads

  • Focus on retention over only chasing new leads; aim for monthly churn around 5% or less in brick-and-mortar gyms.
  • Standardize session delivery and add outside-session touchpoints like momentum meetings to keep clients engaged.
INSIGHT

Small Frequency Gains Yield Big Returns

  • Most people are not exercise enthusiasts and require realistic programming to change behavior.
  • Moving clients from two to three weekly sessions is a meaningful win that multiplies their exercise exposure.
ADVICE

Post Practical Videos And Reply To Comments

  • Post short, useful exercise videos consistently on Instagram to grow engagement rather than relying only on collaborations.
  • Reply thoughtfully to comments to increase reach and build audience rapport.
