Don’t Be Fooled and Mislead

Consultants in any field are a dime a dozen. But to find help and support from seasoned professionals, people who have been in the fitness industry for over forty years, that can be hard to come by.

So, what does a fitness facility do to ensure they have the very best possible chance for success and aren’t being fooled and mislead? Here is the answer. Be better than the other fitness facilities by joining an association that will provide you with daily support and access to seasoned fitness professionals and all their resources at a cost that anyone can afford.

Whether you're new to the fitness industry or a veteran, all of us need access to experts to discuss our special needs and daily challenges.

If you are a member of a fitness trade association, ask yourself the following questions and decide if you are really benefiting.

•  When was the last time you spoke to someone about your day-to-day challenges?

•  Was the information you received prepared by a season professional or by an employee who has never owned a business or been in the fitness industry?

•  Did you get the impression that your association is more concerned about money rather than helping you?

If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions, then guess what. You’re not benefiting! So don’t be fooled and mislead any longer, and start benefiting today by contacting the right association and fitness professionals to get the help you need.

You should be looking for an association that can provide you with true benefits - benefits that you can measure and count on from seasoned professionals who have been in the trenches, negotiated with the landlords, solved maintenance issues, trained staff, handled member problems and suggestions, come up with the promotions, solved staff problems, designed the systems, forms, videos, negotiated with creditors, and more.

This experience and expertise is available; you’ve just been looking in the wrong place and spending your money to feel you’re a part of something bigger. Remember, bigger doesn’t always mean better. If you’ve been down this road, then you’ll understand what I’m trying to convey. If you’re not a member of a fitness trade association, you need to be . . . but with the right association.

This brings me to Global Fitness Association, located in Clayton, California, with Regional Offices in Lincoln, California, and Las Vegas, Nevada.
