"I am excited about the growth of my club membership. Two weeks have passed and we have a membership of 75 ladies. I'm already looking forward to opening another Figures , but, of course, I will get this one well established over the next year, and then hope to secure another location. I feel that this is a ministry I have been called to. He is good! The trainer was very helpful. I appreciated her kindness and patience. She made us feel relaxed and confident during a time of high stress."

"Sunday morning at ScrImage, just wanted to follow up with you regarding our grand opening. First I can't say enough about the trainers. They were wonderful. I can't say I call too many people my friend, that's an inner circle thing for me, however over a period of two days, I felt I made three new friends. Their help and support was awesome. The positive encouragement they gave Rick and I was well needed. We didn't get the number of people through the door we expected, but those we got, we closed the deal and were 100%. I want you to know all three worked hard, from the time we picked them up, until they were returned to the hotel room. There was really no down time. I appreciated this. The days were long, but enjoyable, all three know their stuff. My friend who is in sales, made the comment of how well they did, and he actually learned some things from them, which he is going to apply to his sales. I can go on and on, please share with Anita, Brooke and whoever else including Erin, Kyle and Ryan. Rick and I already agreed that when other clubs in Ohio open and if one of these three come to open them, we would like to have them back at our place and spend another day with them on us. Our treat!"

"I was impressed with the entire training and very glad that Kathy and I made the decision to attend. It really has been a pleasure to find It Figures and partner with them. The overall experience has been very positive."

Well I made it. I am going home now for the day. Tomorrow my husband and I are going to disassemble the treadmill and haul it up the stairs to the mezzanine.
We have signed 84 ladies so far and have 14 appointments booked for Monday and Tuesday next week. We have exceeded my expectations by far so needless to say I am very pleased. It's great to see the groups of ladies coming in now that they have completed their first workouts and they are having fun while EXERCISING! One senior has really surprised me. I really wondered when she signed if she really realized what she was in for....she has been here EVERY morning since. I think she will fast become one of my favorite members.
Take care and thanks for your assistance in getting my club up and running.

Helllo Ladies, I fell in love so much with my Curves location that I wanted to buy one. However, after doing much research . . . like equipment . . . franchise fees . . . limitations. I have chosen to go with it figures! I am very excited about the opening. I want to here from all of you women. Tell me what you like and do not like about your fitness center. Thank you so much!
Abbra,
Thanks so much for sending Erin to us for our Grand Opening. She was a pleasure and joy to work with and taught us a great deal. We have been able to implement much of what she taught us and are having a really successful ratio of signups this week. Without her help, we would not have had such good success this week. Please pass this on to her and keep her going to openings.
She is great! Hope you have a good week.

Club Opening by Bruce Ludwig
Opening day was a big hit. The mayor of the town did a ribbon cutting in the early morning, and people just poured in after that. Everyone had a blast, and loved it so much they all signed up. By the end of the day we had either sat down or made an appointment for 96% of the people that came in. Of the people we sat down with we signed up 91%, with 95% of them signing on the best membership plan! We ended with 22 new members and many more to come!
I think that is it for now, Thanks!

Hi Stacey! I just wanted to write to you to let you know how much I enjoyed your kickboxing class. I took your first kickboxing class when we were in Owasso for business training. I hadn't been exercising at that point, so the thought of doing any type of kickboxing scared the living daylights out of me. I tried to come up with an excuse on time to get out of doing the workout, but I apparently wasn't that quick. Then I
thought I could possibly fake an injury during the workout so I didn't look like I couldn't handle it. We got going, and I realized that I hadn't had that much fun in a LONG time. It was great...and I felt so GREAT for the rest of the day, into the next day. I now plan on getting certified to teach the kickboxing class. Thank you so much for helping me realize that I really
do need to try new things!

Hi Anita,
We wanted to let you know how much we appreciated all of the resources and help that you provided us with in preparation of opening our doors and having our grand opening. The business manuals, forms and basic operation manuals helped more than you will ever know. I can honestly say that if we had gone strictly with the package that we had ordered over the internet, we would have been in big trouble! The hands on training and calm personality that were provided were wonderful.
We also want to thank you for continuing to call or e-mail
us to see how things are going. You truly do care about the
people that you serve and this comes through loud and clear.
We are looking forward to attending your quarterly trainings.
Scott and Mary Vanden Busch
Dear Anita and Andrea,
Thank you very much for assisting us for our Grand Opening. I only fished I had emailed you this message earlier, but I am sure you'll understand the hectic time that comes with a grand opening.
I have learned so much from both of you, and will definitely recommend your services for a grand opening. It was so important to me to be able to start my fitness club with proven techniques in membership sales. Yes, let's face it, so much of our success depends on how good we are doing sales and showing that we genuinely care. It has been exciting to see that once the techniques are actually applied they DO work. It was extremely important to me that we start the right way. We have all been applying your techniques and following your phone script and we have been able to close 85% of either walk in - appointments and phone calls - appointments.
Let me tell you that the neighborhood is spreading the news pretty quickly. So, exciting for us!
Anyway, Brian and I wanted to let you know that we really enjoyed the time you spent with us. Andrea, next time we see each other we'll have to take a picture with you: Can you believe that we forgot to take a picture with you!
On another note, I wanted to announce that I am now officially a member of the "Sales and Marketing Toastmasters Club" in Mpls. This is the perfect group for what I want!
Cheers!
Hope that you are having fun at all your trips to the other clubs!

Good Morning Judy,
How are things there? Things are great here...I have 241 members and I've only been open for two months.!!!
Tons of women from Curves...they hated it and thanked me for opening so they had a choice. I must be getting 5 women a day from the local Curves!
Have a great day!

To It Figures Corporate,
Just a quick note to tell you that I enjoy the 30 minute work-out at It Figures. I started working out in July at the It Figures in Boonville, MO owned and operated by Shelley Copeland. I started at 250lbs and with working out 3 to 4 days a week, I am down to 220 lbs and have lost 27 inches. This is the best thing that has happened to me. The ladies that work out are supported and so is Shelley. Thank you for letting me share this information. By the way Shelley is my sister and she is doing a wonderful job.
Sincerely,
Tammi Windsor
Hi Anita,
I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful training you provided us earlier this month. I learned so much and as I look through the manuals.
I continue to find more valuable information. I feel that I now have a true game plan for signing up members and marketing my services. You have so much information to share and I am so glad I was able to participate in the training and benefit from your experience.
Also, since training, I truly believe that I have gained such valuable knowledge to share with my members that can ultimately transform their lives. I now understand how the direction that God has taken me is a real "mission" to serve His people and have an impact on their lives.
Thank you Anita! May God bless you and strengthen you as you continue to build It Figures and share His blessing with all the people you meet.

When we decided to open our fitness centers, we knew that we had to find the very best circuit training equipment available to set ourselves apart from the competition. We visited several resources, including the actual manufacturing facilities. In the end, there was no doubt in our minds that It Figures! equipment outperforms all the others! During a workout, it actually feels like it?s producing results (and it does!). Further, its flexibility to set the resistance to personal strength levels in just a second, with the turn of a dial, is vital to allowing our members to continue to achieve progressive results. We are very happy with our decision to purchase It Figures! circuits.
Another feature about It Figures! which was very important for us was the thorough training. We had spent a tremendous amount of time researching, planning, developing marketing plans and promotions, and putting in place the business side of the operation. However, the training really helped us understand areas we had not considered and has saved a lot of time in expensive ?trial and error? mistakes.
