We all know that the fitness sector is one of the most seasonal sectors<\/strong>, with September and January being the months with the highest number of registrations. But only some of us take advantage of this and improve the profitability of our centre.<\/span> Do you want to know how to do it? We give you our 5 top tips to make the most of seasonality in your gym.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n \u00a0 First of all, knowing the seasonality of your box is fundamental<\/strong> to start developing these strategies.<\/span> While it is true that in most centres, September and January are the most likely months to attract new customers<\/strong>, you may find that there is another time period that you can make the most of.<\/span> Let us give you a tip: having a management software<\/a> that collects these statistics will be essential to be able to extract the data and start with the strategies.<\/span> To do this, you must go a step further, and collect data that is key to designing strategies:<\/span> \u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n In these months, not only will you receive more registrations, but also the number of users in your box will be higher.<\/span> Therefore, a key action is to increase the range of activities on offer<\/strong>. With this, new users will be able to try out your classes without taking away space from users who were already with you. In the same way, analysing and knowing which activities or coaches are most in demand will be the basis for creating a recruitment strategy.<\/span> Another good strategy that you can carry out during these months is to include different complementary services such as personal trainers, physiotherapists, nutritionists, sports coaches… This will make your sports centre stand out from the rest by offering a better user experience<\/strong>, as well as attracting the attention of new users.<\/span> \u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n \u00a0 During these months there may be times of the day when the high influx of users in the centre generates some stress for your employees as they do not get to everything. Motivating them and preparing them for the increased workload during the seasonal months in your box will be essential<\/strong>.<\/span> Another idea that can simplify the daily management of your centre is to have a management system<\/a>. With it you can automate tasks such as the management of registrations and deregistrations or the registration for activities or online payments.<\/span> In this way you will not only reduce the workload of your employees, but also your users will have a better experience in your gym<\/strong> and will not only want to come back, but will also recommend it.<\/span> \u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n \u00a0 As these months are the best months for attracting new customers<\/strong>, creating targeted offers and promotions for your potential customers can be key to standing out from the crowd.<\/span> Both in September and January it is common for sports centres to have offers, so you should go further and look for new ways to attract attention and offer added value<\/strong> to these potential new users.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|phone” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_direction=”90deg” background_color_gradient_stops=”#21405a 0%|rgba(33,64,90,0.74) 100%” background_color_gradient_overlays_image=”on” background_color_gradient_start=”#21405a” background_color_gradient_end=”rgba(33,64,90,0.74)” background_image=”https:\/\/newweb.nubapp.com\/resawod\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/top-section-bg-image.jpg” background_position=”top_center” max_width=”796px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false” custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”0px|1em|0px|1em|false|true” custom_css_main_element=”display: flex;||align-items: center;” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” background_color_gradient_direction=”90deg” background_enable_image=”off” vertical_offset=”0px” custom_padding=”2%|2%|2%|2%|true|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|1em|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Raleway||||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font=”Raleway|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_font_size=”2em” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”Raleway|700|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#f8af20″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjE1NTg2In19@” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Download” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _dynamic_attributes=”button_url” _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” background_color_gradient_direction=”90deg” background_enable_image=”off” vertical_offset=”0px” custom_padding=”2%|2%|2%|2%|true|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|1em|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/newweb.nubapp.com\/resawod\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/Guia-para-captar-nuevos-clientes-en-tu-box_portada_sinfondo-1.png” alt=”Guide to attracting new customers to your box” title_text=”Guide to attracting new customers to your box” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n \u00a0 Advertising is undoubtedly one of the best tools to make your box known<\/strong>.
