How To Market Your Gym In Under An Hour A Day

When you’re a box owner there are never enough hours in the day… training, classes, new members, administration, events, maintenance and trouble-shooting. Often in small businesses it is easy for the owner to become so consumed by the day to day running of their business that spending time working on their business goes out the door! Our clients often say that they have no time for marketing and don’t have the budget to spend on a marketing expert. Because of this it simply doesn’t get done. What if we told you that with just one hour per day you could increase membership, boost your profits, maintain member loyalty and promote your box!
