Run a Profitable Gym

How to Build and Test Gym Systems So You Can Finally Take a Vacation


Listen Later

So you're a gym owner—that means you've got to grind and can't ever take a vacation, right?

Wrong.

In this episode, Two-Brain Business founder and CEO Chris Cooper will explain how you can free yourself from low-level jobs to become a CEO who can take time off.

When Coop got food poisoning in 2019 before Two-Brain's huge annual summit for gym owners, it was a blessing in disguise. He suddenly realized he could let his team members run the show, then audit and improve things after the fact with their input. He didn't need to do everything himself if staff members knew the plan and could execute it.

You can use the same strategy at your gym. Develop and document your systems and operations, then teach them to others. Give them the space to perform. Then evaluate and upgrade as needed.

When you've got things humming, try a greater test: Take a week off from the gym with no contact and see what happens. When you return, figure out what broke and then upgrade your systems so it doesn't happen again.

If you follow this plan, your business will constantly improve with minimal oversight from you. And you'll get to take a well-deserved vacation.
