If fitness boot camps are so easy to run and so profitable, you may be wondering why you even need to open a Fit Body Boot Camp franchise. Can’t you go and open your own boot camp brand and get mostly the same results?
The truth is, because boot camps are so popular and so easy to create, there’s now a huge glut of boot camps on the market. This means there’s more competition than ever, and that competition is especially fierce at the bottom, where thousands of one-location boot camps are fighting for recognition, usually by cutting their prices way too low and sacrificing quality service for unsafe crash diets and lose-fat-quick schemes.
That’s why the best way to open a fitness boot camp is to join the industry leader in fitness boot camps. Fit Body Boot Camp was created back when fitness boot camps were still a new concept and most of the fitness industry still saw them as a fad. Since then, we’ve optimized the business model through standing up almost 700 locations around the globe and creating hundreds of thousands of weight loss transformations.
As you might imagine, we’ve had our bumps and scratches along the way, and now we’re happy to give you our straightforward business blueprint so you skip right to the part where you earn a lifestyle of freedom and help hundreds of people in your community get fit.
To help you with your decision, here’s a short list of some of the benefits of opening a fitness boot camp franchise instead of trying to do it all alone:
You need to go big with your Grand Opening if you want to set your boot camp up for success. Too many small business owners waste their Grand Opening opportunity by not offering a sweet enough deal, not attracting enough press, or not holding a Grand Opening at all.
When you’re opening a new business, you have a chance to be in the spotlight and attract that critical cohort of early adopter clients who will help you quickly expand and reach profitability. Whenever a new business opens in town, people are naturally curious about it, especially if it’s a major brand like Fit Body Boot Camp that they recognize from the media.
At Fit Body Boot Camp, we give you the formula to host a hugely popular Grand Opening so you can attract a huge crowd of prospective clients. Then, we give you all the pre-written emails you need to get the word out, plus access to exclusive print materials that are custom-branded and tested for maximum conversions.
Then, we show you how to structure your charter membership prices to get the maximum number of early adopter clients, and we give you the scripts you need to ask them for the referrals and testimonials you’ll use to keep your business growing.
Marketing is the toughest thing to master for most small business owners. It’s also the lifeblood of your business and the number one thing you need to get right to make sure you don’t lose business to the competition. To have an effective marketing plan, you always need to have three “poles in the water” in the form of online marketing, offline marketing, and referrals. Most small businesses owners end up using only one of those three, and they rarely optimize it for the best results!
So to give you an idea of what your marketing should look like, let’s take a look at the marketing system for a typical Fit Body Boot Camp location. Keep in mind, if you join our franchise, we will either install these systems for you automatically or give you detailed instructions on how to implement it, coupled with a live business coach to help you through any challenges you might have along the way.
