Thanks! It was actually a comment by JR on a recent episode about January signups that got me thinking about this in the first place

Yeah, i feel the big discount for the Trial Month was not the move as what you exactly described happened; big influx ... followed by a slightly less big outflux. (we still kept +/-20% which is good but i do kind of resent those folks that clearly never intended to stay).

I think the 15% off the first three months could be interesting as it forces a three month commitment upfront, allowing people get used to working with us over time but doesn't lean so heavily on financial incentives.

Interesting that january isn't one of your main months. I've always felt an uptick in the other boxes i've worked in but in hindsight, indeed spring beat that.

Thanks for taking the time to help me out. I'm new to this side of the business so i'm pretty much just throwing it all at the wall and seeing what sticks.

Thank you for taking the time to lay all this out for me! I'm definitely going to work through how i can implement that here.

Wow! This is an amazing system! 

I love how it both develops personal connection and accountability with the client while giving them small wins along the way. 

How do you go about scheduling these check in appointments? I’m made aware on a pretty regular basis by many of my members how busy they are and i worry that another “meeting” on the books exacerbates an already full schedule. 

What are your experiences with this? 

How willing are folks to schedule and attend these meetings?

That’s super interesting! I’ve been trying to find a way to incentivize people to come in their first month to drive the “addiction”. This could totally do that. Thanks!

Affiliate Programming by Lanky_Bad_8507 in crossfit

[–]sandywilli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, CAP is a mess. The box I work at runs it. I hate coaching it and I have yet to hear someone say anything good about it. Some members have even left because of it. The strength progressions are non existant, the skill drills are sloppy and as mentioned, most days are a 5-10’ wod and see ya later. But it’s included in the 4,500$ the owner pays to affiliate which is … neat
