Training 

Prior to the Studio's opening, the franchisee (or their Operating Partner), the Designated Manager, and the Studio’s lead trainer are required to attend and successfully complete the initial training program. This training must be completed no later than four weeks before the Studio's opening date.

The training program is typically conducted at a certified Franchisee Training Studio, the Colorado Support Center, or another location chosen by the franchisor. Additionally, the franchisor may offer the option to complete the training virtually.

Training Program Content

The training program encompasses various critical topics essential for operating the Studio effectively. The program includes:

• Pre-Training Program Calls and Self-Directed Online Training: 18 hours of Classroom/Home Study Training.
• Introductions & Expectations: 1 hour of Classroom/Home Study Training.
• Client Experience Standards: 2 hours of Classroom/Home Study Training.
• Proprietary Systems: 4 hours of Classroom/Home Study Training.
• Client Acquisition and Retention/Programming (Sales Training): 10 hours of Classroom/Home Study Training.
• Employee Hiring & Management (Build Great Teams): 4 hours of Classroom/Home Study Training.
• Operating Plan Creation: 1 hour of Classroom/Home Study Training.

Territory Protection

The franchise offers territory protection within a designated "Protected Area," ensuring that no other franchisee will operate a Studio within this specific zone. This protection aims to provide franchisees with a secure market, reducing direct competition from within the same franchise network.

However, it's important to note that franchisees may still face competition from other fitness businesses and brands operating outside the protected area.

Additionally, competition may arise from various channels such as online fitness programs and alternative training methods. Despite the territorial protection, franchisees need to remain vigilant and proactive in maintaining a competitive edge in the broader market.
