Clients, Did You Know? 💡

You can edit tax rates in our software now?

Our clients asked and we jumped! Now you can create and manage various tax rates within your Gym Insight software. This important addition smooths accounting processes and provides novel marketing options for creative owners.

Here’s a few benefits: 

• Need to review taxes collected? Pull our automatically generated sales tax report. This handy tool itemizes your collected taxes, separating them from the item/service price. 
• Handling different tax rates? Set your tax rates and adjust them according to the service or item. For example, if your state charges one tax for retail and another for medical service, our software gives you the choice to customize these tax rates.
• Ready to change up your offers? Promote pre-tax pricing in your marketing material. Now your social media, website, and (soon) Member’s App can feature your pre-tax rate for whichever promotion you’re running.

Science Corner 

Can we make blood in a lab? 

Not yet. The  challenges are immense from a technological and financial perspective, even though biologists, chemists, and the U.S. Department of Defense are attempting to recreate this life-sustaining element. 

Truth!

• Coaxing blood from stem cells can cost $15,000 per pint.
• Lab blended versions may soon solve such serious issues dissolving clots for stroke patients, but don’t address large scale mass production for transfusions.

Truthfully, wholesale blood manufacturing is still far in the future.

Until then blood is made the old fashion way — by our bodies. Yet only about 3% of eligible donors share this gift. Even though every two seconds someone needs blood or blood products. The product, as well, has a shelf life of less than 5 to 45 days depending on its’ use.

This July, the American Red Cross declared an emergency blood shortage with inventories down 25%. Donations have dropped across the United States, a trend that continues to accelerate since the pandemic. 

We urge you— as a community of health-minded people — to set the model and host a blood drive. Save a life. Science can’t solve all our problems. Open the link below for info on how you can bring this resource home.
