The Fitness Studio Operating System
Reduce churn, fill classes, and turn every trial into a long-term member.
The business problem
Fitness businesses lose 4–7% of members every month, and most of the churn is preventable — quiet weeks, missed classes, unpaid dues. Trial conversion is where reception time evaporates.
There is never a quiet quarter to redesign the operation, so friction becomes normal.
- Members going quiet without a nudge
- Trial conversions dependent on reception memory
- Classes not full, waitlist unworked
- Direct debit failures not caught quickly
