You need a combination of skills and experience, but not necessarily in running a gym. Rather, an ideal franchisee will have an entrepreneurial spirit, business management skills, and a passion for developing people and providing outstanding service.
We can’t guarantee your success, but we can offer a proven concept and superior franchise support systems. Income from each Anytime Fitness gym varies based on many variables: market size, demographics, efforts made by owners, competency, and economic factors. Your success is our success, so we’ll work with you to help your gym reach its full potential.
Yes, you’ll be granted an exclusive territory subject to certain restrictions contained in the Franchise Agreement (see Item 12 of our Franchise Disclosure Document). Your franchise sales consultant can discuss with you how Anytime Fitness implements its territory development. If you choose to be a multi-gym owner, we provide a discount on the franchise fee for each additional Anytime Fitness territory.
In starting any new business, the first few months require a significant investment of time and effort. As you build your member base and get comfortable with gym operations, you will likely see more flexibility in your schedule.
Depending on your situation, you may be able to hire a manager to supervise the day-to-day operations of your gym. While this structure provides some owners with increased freedom, our most successful owners remain engaged in their club operations.
An exceptional franchisee gives up entrepreneurial freedom in exchange for an established system. The upside of that exchange is support from an experienced franchisor, one that can assist you through all phases of your business development and operation. A great franchisee is a team player and is committed to grow not only their business, but to improve the franchise system overall.
If you have the ability and desire to develop people, deliver an unmatched member experience, and build a local market, along with adequate capitalization, you may be a good fit for Anytime Fitness franchise ownership.
Supporting you and your staff is our top job at Anytime Fitness. For as long as you operate your Anytime Fitness franchise, you and your staff can expect targeted training in membership sales, customer service, staff management, marketing, business reporting, and every other aspect of the gym business.
