Toning Up

RIP Texting — Here Comes In-App Messaging 📲

Text messaging between businesses and their customers is highly regulated now. Don’t get caught off-guard by fines from The Campaign Registry. Migrate your members to direct messaging through our Member’s App, which comes free with our software. Read more about it in our blog and FAQ section.

Product Update: We’ve added the ability for members to update their photo from the Member’s App! To allow your customers to use this feature, simply head to your location’s application settings, and under Member’s App, enable the Member Photo option.

Gym Life 🏋️

Thoughtful Insights from a Multi-Gym Owner  

MorGainz Fitness

Never base decisions on how you feel about something. Do the research first. 

 

Gyms don’t run themselves. They need attention and a sprinkle of love. Absentee ownership won’t work without a good manager.

 

Establish a line of respect from the gate — with employees and members. 

 

Build a noncompete clause into employee agreements. 

 

Invest in easy-to-evaluate gym management software. Kelly replaced her expensive software company with Gym Insight and the rollout has simplified facility management.

Our Favorite MorGainz Quote:

“Great Captains Are Never Made From Calm Waters”
