#56 - Simple, Sustainable and Scalable with Andrew Holder


Listen Later

Andrew Holder, the visionary behind Revo Fitness, shares the

remarkable journey of how he grew Revo into the largest independent gym
operator in Australia. Unlike other fitness operators, Revo Fitness was built
without being influenced by existing industry structures.


Problem: Traditional gyms can be intimidating and

unwelcoming, often prioritising profit over the member experience, leading to
high churn rates and a lack of community.


Solution: Revo Fitness transforms the gym experience

by focusing on simplicity, accessibility, and member satisfaction, creating a
welcoming environment where everyone feels motivated and supported. Member
experience is designed to be as frictionless as possible from joining to leaving.


One big piece of advice: Play for the right reasons.

Put one foot in front of the other. Let go of the outcomes you want to achieve
personally. Think about what you can achieve as a “we” not a “me”.
