Real Sales Stats: How Does Your Gym Compare?

Is your marketing working?

If you’re not measuring these metrics, you can’t answer the question:

Set rate: the number of people who set an appointment for a free consultation. These are people who are interested enough to sit down and hear your pitch.

Show rate: the number of people who book an appointment and actually show up. Sadly, you will never get every single person who books to show up. That’s OK: The people who show are serious about signing up.

Close rate: the number of people who buy.

In a competitive market full of distracted consumers, you will never get every single lead to book, show up and buy. However, if you know your numbers and track them every month, you can diagnose the problems in your marketing.
