Too many gym owners are sitting on ideas that could change their business, but they never pull the trigger. They wait. They look around. They try to copy what someone else is doing instead of testing it for themselves.

In this episode, Tim and Randy explain why testing needs to be part of how you run your gym – day to day, month to month, quarter to quarter. Pricing, schedules, offers, roles, marketing – it’s all on the table.

If something’s not working, test a change. If something is working, test a way to make it better.

They walk through real examples – good ones and bad ones. Testing new class times. Trying different billing frequencies. Split testing discovery calls versus straight-to-consult. Even staffing changes like running a front desk or not.

The common thread is simple: stop guessing and start letting the data drive the decisions.

Business doesn’t move by accident. It moves because you’re willing to test, tweak, and adjust as you go.

Tune in to find out how to do that.
