Quotes:
“Because of the option of a push notification with the announcements, you can be doing an announcement every day. There’s really no reason not to do some kind of announcement every day, and do a push notification once or twice a week.” [Nick, 6:26]
“Be intentional. As a studio owner or head instructor, you should probably be attending class anyway. You should be a part of your own community. Book your own classes via the app, let them see your face as a friend and kind of use that as a training opportunity.” [Megan, 14:43]
“That’s why people start going to boutique fitness studios, because they have an issue with self-accountability. So now none of their friends are checking in on them, no one else is holding them accountable, and they just start to slowly fall off and move away from your studio. That’s what I think of when I think of community; people are going to care when you’re not there.” [Nick, 20:42]
