Gym Referral Program
Hi everyone! I hope you are having a great week so far. This week I'm handing out checks worth $850 to three of our clients for the referral program at our gyms. Congratulations - and THANK YOU - to the winners of our June and July referral contest:
Michelle Taylor, from the Indianapolis gym: $375 (tied for 1st place)
Angie Dipert, from the Martinsville gym: $375 (tied for 1st place)
Caroline Hibbard, from the Indianapolis gym: $100 (3rd place)
I love marketing, but as a small, local business, with gyms in Martinsville and Indianapolis, our marketing and advertising budget is pretty limited. And instead of buying traditional ads, I really enjoy spending my marketing dollars rewarding our very own clients at Strength School for helping us grow through referrals. Since April, we have paid Strength School clients over $2000 for referring us new business, and we will continue doing so.
Our next referral contest at the gyms will be for August and September. Clients get points for each referral they send us, with more points awarded if their friends join for a longer membership. The three clients with the most points at the end of September will get $500, $250, or $100 from us. This is easy money, and enough to pay for a large portion of the membership.

P.S. Our next Bring-A-Friend Week will be September 2nd-6th (the week after Labor Day), with a special focus on friends with shoulder and neck pain. Not only can your friends join you for free workouts, but also . . . we will have special exercises to help your friends with neck or shoulder aches, pains, stiffness, and other ailments . . . plus our in-house physical therapist, Dr. Courtney Scholl, will be available to provide screenings and assessments at both gyms.
