Today's workout was extra special. I had the opportunity to show other fitness business owners what Hybrid and our business was all about. For some of you we may be just another place to workout but what you may not be aware of is the fact that The BAR is very unique when it comes to other fitness facilities. You see we approach this business not from a "you have to get results or else" type place but more of a welcome and let's make you workout experience mind blowing and let's make it the best part of your day.
Most trainer guys (not all.. don't get butt hurt guys) only focus on the results that people achieve. We focus on the experience! If your experience is awesome then the results will come.. there is no doubt that it works.. Anyway, the hybrid group today was made up of graduate students from A.T. Still Univeristy (health science school) where Tracie is a professor at. Tracie gave a talk that I was fortunate enough to sit in on, Tuesday. She spoke about trainers putting down the clip board and start focusing on what people really want... A Great Experience!
Long story short, after the talk, numerous trainer graduates came up to (all these people are trainers that own there own facility or want to) Tracie and asked more about our philosophy... after all the Q and A, Tracie finally told everyone to come by and see it for yourself. Well, the school is at least 45 min away so only the ones that were in dire straights for a workout showed up. Two guys missed.. they were from FreeMotion which is a equipment manufacturer (too bad guys, I wanted to look into new equipment.. you could have sold me today!).
Only a few showed up but we gave them everything we offer.. not treating them any different than normal joe shmoe walking through the door.. Ryan was nice enough to put all of us through a Hybrid workout.. I almost puked a little again (i might need to see advice).. anyway, they loved it.. question after question and so forth. We gave them all the sales material that we have and I even told one lady that if she was interested in a Co-Op in Florida.. that I'm in! We'll see what happens there (sometimes change is scary for people).
Well, I have to say and of course I'm biased; judging by the response, we really do have a special place for people to get healthy... Thank you guys for coming today and I hope you incorporate some of the ideas that you saw today into your existing business. Just remember, people are good and they need you to help change there lives! You have to love helping people otherwise don't get into training... it's all about the people..
