When I was growing up, and my attention span tended to be short and my patience thin, I always encountered a line. As much as it frustrated me, it became somewhat normal to me. You go to the grocery store, you wait in line. You get in a drive-thru, you wait in line. You go to Disneyland; you wait in VERY long lines. It was clearly a way of life. Until, suddenly as I got older, it wasn’t anymore. Lines today are shorter or non-existent because of technological strides that we’ve made as a society. Looking back I realize now how much of our lives are wasted by waiting. Now that I’ve gained back such a huge portion of my time, I’ve accomplished so much more in a day. That’s what people want. To make the most of the time they have, and spend less of their lives waiting. Which is why certain POS solutions are desirable to the audience it caters to. Fitness is a vital component to our success and happiness, but it often falls low on our list of priorities. Not because we don’t care, but because the initial transaction requires too much time. Many studios emphasize a face-to-face signup, and that notion alone is unappealing to the businesses savvy that spend too much time in an office, and don’t want the added hassle of making a detour on their commute home. People want to obtain a product or service by simply clicking a button, and with studio management software that’s exactly what they’ll get.
We’re typically used to the point of a sale occurring over a cash register in a boutique or via a receptionist at a front desk whose taking your check and writing you a receipt for the class you just sweated through. But smart studios that are focused on building their empire won’t just satisfy the market of people who prefer to do things this way. By utilizing studio management software, you’ll be creating a bigger market and tapping into a population that older studios don’t have access to. You’ll attract old and new by maintaining a business that can either be obtained through the ease of a click of a button, or through the valued norm of an over the counter exchange. People who don’t utilize studio management software are isolating an active part of the public. Which is why, if you want to be successful, you have to embrace old traditions as well as modern ways.
By using this software, you’ll receive:
-lower rates
-generate more business by creating an online store
-save time and stress by auto-billing
– receive the hardware you need to garner the most sales
-guaranteed security with customer’s sensitive information
So expand your market today, and let those who worry about time skip the line. Your successful fitness studio will thank you in the long run for learning to cater to all ends of the spectrum, and your empire will flourish because of it. Watch and see.
