We don’t believe that providing the cheapest fitness services helps our clients reach their wellness goals, so we constantly strive to be the best. HOW DOES COSE HELP YOuR BuSINESS CAuSE? Our COSE membership paid for itself within a few months, saving us significantly on utilities and office supplies. Every little bit helps. WHAT IS YOuR SOuRCE OF INSPIRATION? Our clients—and every time one of them reaches a fitness goal. BEST THING YOu’VE DONE FOR YOuR BuSINESS? We hire the best trainers, pay them top dollar, and support their development as fitness professionals and businesspeople. We put them on track to buy their own franchise, which creates loyal, hardworking employees in an industry that typically has very high turnover. MOMENT YOu’RE REALLY PROuD OF? We set a goal to exceed $1 million in sales this year, and we are going to reach that goal. WHERE WOuLD YOu LIKE TO BE PROFESSIONALLY IN FIVE YEARS? We want to take the momentum from our first 18 months in business and continue to expand, both in the quality of our service and number of locations. WHAT IS YOuR BuSINESS FOCuS THIS YEAR? Our mantra is, “We make healthy routine,” so our focus is always on improving services for our clients that enhance their Fitness Together experience and, ultimately, their lives.
