We're constantly searching for new ways to make every health club more successful, and when we finally found this program we knew we had a good thing…..
What would you say if somebody offered you FREE MONEY today? Would you take it? How about if somebody offered you FREE SAMPLES that you could give to your gym members? No strings attached. Would you take them? Of course you would!
You'd be absolutely CRAZY if you didn’t agree to take FREE MONEY for you and FREE SAMPLES for your fitness center members!
Does this sound too good to be true? It's not! Because you've found the www.cuecd.com article directory for health club owners, you're about to discover the secret to bringing free money and free samples into your gym.
Once you open a fitness center and build up a clientele, then you have something quite valuable: you have the eyes and ears of consumers who care about their health. You have the ability to put something in front of those customers. In other words, you have the ability to advertise to your members.
That's why you need to check out this program we've discovered. It's called ActiveRewards, and it's basically cooperative advertising with national vendors. You allow national vendors to advertise in your health club, and in return they give you something of value.
Here's an example: McDonald's recently asked to hang a poster in gyms nationwide. This poster advertised their new healthy salads. In return, they sent all participating health clubs check for $30. It's that easy. If you agreed to hang up their poster for a limited time, then they gave you a $30 check.
ActiveRewards does all the work for you. Posters and other advertising pieces are mailed to you, and all you have to do is open the box and hang them up. ActiveRewards also specializes in sampling programs. As an example, they recently sent out several CASES of Trident chewing gum to participating health clubs. See, Trident had just created a couple new flavors of gum and the company needs to know if people like it before they roll it out nationally. One way to do that is to send free gum to you so you can sample it to your members. Although nobody received a check for the Trident promotion, participants did get to give their members something completely 100% FREE. That leads to increased customer satisfaction, improved member retention, and a fun atmosphere in the gym! The cost to participate? ZERO.
Remember how important it is to NEVER LET THE GYM GET BORING! This is one way to generate some excitement in the gym, and in the process actually earn a little bit of cash.
Here's some more details on how ActiveRewards works:
1. The first step is to join the ActiveRewards program. After you become a member...
2. ActiveRewards will contact you before each promotion with specific program information (type of samples, program dates, etc.). Your approval of the product being promoted is essential to the success of the promotion, so you will always have the opportunity to accept or refuse any sampling event. If there are certain products you would rather not distribute, or if the timing of a specific promotion does not work for you, they will not send you the samples. It's that simple!
3. During the week before each program, samples and a sampling kit will be shipped to your facility. Each sampling kit contains a sampling manual, posters and banners that say "We Appreciate Your Membership", and other promotional materials to support your sampling program. A prize drawing may be included into the ActiveRewards program (win a Cannondale bike, win a $500 SpaWish gift certificate, etc.) to add even more excitement to your club's event. The sampling manual has full instructions for the current promotion and information about the product to be distributed.
4. You will receive enough samples for 40-50% of your membership base. Experience shows that this ratio of samples to members provides enough product for your members to enjoy and, at the same time, prevents you from being overwhelmed with samples or running into storage problems.
5. Create a great promotion! Vary the days and times that you distribute samples in order to reach the largest number of members. While you do not need to dedicate a full-time staff person to your sampling table, you are required to set up your sampling display in an area that is carefully monitored by a club representative. Many clubs have found that the sampling table is an easy, non-intrusive place for personal trainers and fitness instructors to meet members and encourage them to try a sample and participate in specialized activities at your facility.
6. After the program, return the feedback forms and photos. With every promotion, ActiveRewards provides each participating health club with a Management Feedback Form and Member Comment Sheet. These forms are your opportunity to tell us what you think and influence future promotions.
