Bringing on an operator or GM can feel like the scariest leap you’ll take as a gym owner. What if it fails? What if they don’t treat your business with the same care you do? And what if you can’t afford it?

In this episode, Scott Carpenter and Andy Boimila break down exactly how to do it the right way. They share their own wins, mistakes, and the lessons learned from hiring (and sometimes failing) with operators and GMs across multiple gyms.

✅ Why bringing on a GM is one of the biggest steps toward freedom for a gym owner

✅ How to structure comp plans—salary, commissions, KPIs, and even profit-sharing models

✅ The right way to “slow drip” responsibilities before giving someone a title

✅ Why you must hire for attitude, energy, and values first—skills can be taught

✅ Trial periods, contracts, and how to protect your business if it doesn’t work out

✅ Real stories of gym owners who built six-figure operators that freed them from the floor

This isn’t theory—it’s step-by-step experience from gym owners who’ve been there. If you’re ready to stop running your gym 24/7 and start building a business that works without you chained to it, this episode is a must-listen.
