Jason Khalipa Podcast

On today’s episode, Jason is digging into the mail bag to share a listener’s experience and provide insight for those of you that may share a similar story. Many of us have been offered the seemingly “ideal” opportunity to take over an existing gym operation. With a drive to help others, this sounds like an awesome endeavor for a passionate coach. The goal of today’s episode is not to deter you from taking on this business opportunity, but rather to give tangible examples, provide pertinent questions, and help your expectations align with the operation’s potential.

Everyone's favorite co-host, MDV, is back for this one, and damn is it good. Today Jason and MDV are taking on the infamous 'burpee penalty.' We get it, sometimes athletes are late to class, and you've got to get them warmed up and ready to go. However, even though this tactic warms your athlete up, it completely cools them down in regards to your business. We've said it before and we'll say it again, we are in the customer service industy. Think about the culture and experience something like the burpee penalty creates for your gym's atmosphere. Today the guys provide helpful insight and suggestions on better ways to address the chronically late member.

What's the "free" ingredient we're talking about today, you ask? Feedback! We've heard it all: "I don't have the support network to provide feedback," "I'm afraid to give/ask for feedback because of a power dynamic," or someone is blatantly unaware that they could use some. Today, Jason and MDV are discussing how to go about receiving feedback and what to do once you've got that information. Want to take this discussion a bit further? Be sure to check out the NCFIT Collective (linked below) where you can find the evaluation documents used at all NCFIT locations. Sit back, relax, and start putting people in place to call you on your...stuff!

This episode goes there and hits home; we're talking about the "curse of the unpaid coach." Most of us have been there, right? We work out a 'bro' deal to have a current member or buddy coach a couple classes a week in trade for a free membership. You get some free labor and they get some free fitness, win-win, right? Today's episode breaks down the implications of the bro deal from both a professional and legal standpoint, and will provide a new framework for gym owner and head coaches to operate from. Enjoy!
