To other studio owners. What is your #1 marketing tool you use that yields the best results/clients ?

Word of mouth has always been my best tool. That being said, I have recently been more proactive at Facebook, Twitter, blogging etc. and am waiting to see the results. I have found that mailers is a waste of time and resources. I always make my money back on local advertising.

Hello Dave,
Always imagine each day as if it were your very fisrt opening day of business!

Sincerely,
Michael

Hi Dave!

Word of mouth has been my best source for clients as well. But this does not exclusively have to be from your clients. I have been getting business through people who know me as a group exercise instructor and have been recommending me to their friends.

But also not to forget this FitnessConnect site. I have gotten some business through this site as well.

Personally, I do not Twitter or Facebook even though I have accounts there.

Good luck.

Michelle I find your answer really relevant.
For us the futur of fitness is really about ‘build your own community’
creat your network with challenges , share with your friends and follow your progress.
what do you think about that?
