hey guys I'm Mike Arce CEO of Loud Rumor A lead generation company for fitness
studios and in this video we're gonna be talking about the 4 Facebook groups
your fitness studio needs to thrive alright now if you're watching this
video you may be watching it on Facebook or on YouTube or the video may be
embedded in our blog if you're not on our blog watching it definitely check it
out as there's way more stats and information to support everything I talk
about in this video and you can check it out here so the membership Facebook
group is a group where all of your members that go and workout at your
fitness studio can be a part of and they can actually help motivate each other
give each other ideas recipes find out when they're going to certain classes
coordinate schedules coordinate outside activities like hiking or willing for
walks or running because when you have a membership group you'll find that
although everyone's very different you'll have groups of people that
actually like a lot of the same things or maybe are going through a lot of the
same struggles challenges or maybe have the same desires maybe you have three
people that are about to get married and they're here because they want to
work on getting in wedding shape right so create a membership group that will
help you develop a culture within your members that will also allow you to
handle some customer service issues find out what people are liking well people
like a lot and what you should be doing more of so this is the first one you
should add definitely get to work on it alright so the next group you need is
the elite group this is a group that's pretty much for your ambassadors the one
set really do a great job they come consistently they come with a positive
attitude they do the work outside of your studio that you tell them to do to
get their homework done to get their results that you told them you can get
and also they help motivate the other members a high five they do all that
stuff and they give you really great ideas for your studio and tell you
things that may be hard for you to hear but they tell you because they want you
to do better as a business now you may only have like five people that are like
this you may have 25 people letter like this but either way create a Facebook
group for them because this will act kind of like your sounding board and all
the people that are a part of this group you can go to for questions and advice
and say hey what do you think about us implementing something like this what do
you think about us implementing something
like that a reason you don't ask these types of questions in the members group
which we talked about in the previous clip is because you may not have ideal
members that are part of that group maybe 20% of your members are okay Fitz
but they're not great fits that you wish you can multiply people like them over
and over they don't come off in they don't do their homework and therefore do
we really want to redesign or add things to our studio for them when we don't
even want to create a studio for them because they're not the types of members
that we want to multiply over and over so what we wanted to expand out who
those members are and then build a studio around what makes them happy
because we not only want to keep them happy but we want to attract more people
like that so the elite group is the next one you should definitely add alright so
the next Facebook group you should create is the challenge group now your
fitness studio may or may not already be running challenges but they're a great
way to add some excitement and mix it up a little bit in your fitness studio
whether it's a weight loss challenge whether it's a amount of times you
workout per month challenge whether it's a body fat percentage challenge or
anything you can think of eating a certain healthy way for this many days
in a row without cheating there's so many different types of challenges you
can do just to mix it up for your members and also positively give them
something new to work on whenever you create a challenge like that you want to
have a Facebook group for everyone that accepted that challenge to be a part of
so they can motivate each other they can give each other ideas as to how they're
getting through the straw goal getting through the temptations of maybe eating
that piece of food that they know they shouldn't eat or go with that extra
workout even though they're exhausted from work this is a great group for them
to keep themselves going and also have a platform to promote the follow up
challenge so that's the next group each grade and the last Facebook group you
should definitely create is one for your staff this group is so fun we actually
have it for our agency and we know a lot of our customers have a staff group as
well where you're all able to add in some stuff that's really funny because
you get to know each other's personalities you get to comment on each
other stuff maybe poke fun at each other in a nice way of course but also it's a
great platform for you to share goals share testimony
with your staff that maybe you don't want to share with the world because
maybe that particular client wanted to keep it more private but you and your
staff get to see it all the time conversations that you've had with
clients or vendors things that are really great in the company that are
moving forward and just updates from you that you want to get out to everyone and
also give them a place where they can save it if they want to go back to it
the the staff group is a really great group we probably post in that group
more than any other group and it's definitely one I think you should add
for your company's culture as well so those are the four groups that you
should add to help your fitness studio thrive however how you manage those
groups is a whole nother animal so definitely go to this link here and I
provide a bunch of tips on how you can consistently stay in touch with that
group to be able to get the most out of it not just for you for your company but
for your members and your staff as well see you here
