Hey guys
just an update on my coop,
learning lots of names and new faces in my community and continuing to build good rapport with members and supervisor. I am enjoying my placement simply because of the positive and motivated people i am surrounded by!
Also i am learning a lot of great tips and tricks in owning your own gym and some things it would entail. I've watched Anchor schedule events as a marketing tool to land more members and secure current members. I've seen them design logos and posters and tickets using different websites, technology and resources. And i have picked up on majority of their front desk system called pushpress where all the member info is held. It is great to get to know to become familiar with a system like this because it makes it easier to track stats like daily check ins and how well the gym is doing and also where things might need improvements. Also I have got to see how some other sites for budgets, income, member check ins and a bunch of statistics are displayed on graphs and shows possible trends and future expectations great tools to use for planning and growing a business. Overall i am learning a bunch of different aspects of the fitness field and what it will be like to run my own company or own my own facility.
Hey Justin,
ReplyDeleteThat is great that you are learning the business and marketing side of the industry because that is probably the more difficult skills to learn. Owning and running your own business is a lot of work but in my opinion is well worth it to know that you created something great. My placement has taught be a lot about the marketing side as well.
