What are the benefits of membership in FitLife?
- Reciprocity: members of FitLife clubs are allowed to use other clubs in the Network on a limited basis according to the rules of the Fitness-to-Go program. The prospect of having access to approximately 80 independently-owned clubs around the Pacific Northwest is a benefit that sells memberships, while the operational costs of executing the program are low because only a small percentage of members actually use the program.
- Education/Networking: the Network hosts several opportunities every year to learn from experts in health & fitness, marketing & sales, hospitality & customer service, operations & maintenance and programming, as well as to pick the brains of your colleagues from independent clubs. A monthlynewsletter, website, webinars and online social networking create opportunities to get training and stay connected throughout the year.
- Legislative Advocacy: funds are set aside each year in rainy-day accounts to lobby on behalf of or in opposition to relevant state legislation should the need arise. We are more powerful as a group.
- Group Purchasing: Equipment manufacturers, dealers, locker-room supply companies, and insurance agents offer preferred pricing to FitLife members.
