Leading Personal Training Franchise Celebrates Impressive Growth and Debuts Strategic Initiatives Set to Drive Expansion and Enhance Franchisee Support
MELVILLE, N.Y., Oct. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — GYMGUYZ, the world’s largest in-home and on-site personal training franchise, recently hosted its eighth annual Recharge franchisee convention in Cancun, Mexico. Following the brand’s announcement of the GG DRIVE Platform, an all-new, proprietary technology for franchisee support, this year’s convention emphasized innovative strategies to enhance franchisee operations and drive profitability.
The event featured an inspiring presentation by keynote speaker Doc Cohen, CFE of Great American Cookies. A franchise industry veteran, Cohen was the first franchisee inducted into the International Franchise Association’s Hall of Fame, joining the ranks of legends like Dave Thomas, Ray Kroc, and Fred DeLuca.
Over the course of three days, the event showcased engaging roundtable discussions aimed at sharing best practices. These discussions empowered franchisees to optimize their assets and resources.
In addition to exploring the GG DRIVE Platform, GYMGUYZ introduced a new internal operational app aimed at streamlining initial fitness assessments. Set to launch in early November, this innovative tool boasts an easy-to-use interface designed to simplify the process of conducting the industry’s most comprehensive in-home assessments. The app also presents pricing and package options in a clear and accessible format for clients.
“The energy from our entire franchise network at this year’s Recharge convention was truly remarkable,” said Josh York, Founder & CEO of GYMGUYZ. “The launch of our new GG DRIVE Platform certainly contributed to the excitement, but it was the genuine connections and shared success stories among franchisees that inspired everyone present. With GYMGUYZ expanding into over 155 additional cities in 2024, the opportunities for continued growth are endless. The GYMGUYZ team left feeling motivated and well-equipped to continue to enhance our personal training services.”
