New member activation for independent gyms

Your new members don't quit the gym. They quit being alone in it

We pair up new members who train at the same time, and run the whole thing for you. First month free.

What did last January cost you

Not every leaver is fixable. People move, budgets change. But the ones who never make a friend usually go first.

FAQ

Straight answers

What’s the January check?

Three numbers you already know. We show you what last January cost you. Free, no call.

Do you need our member list?

No. New members sign up themselves by scanning the QR code on your poster or in your welcome email. We only see what they choose to share with us.

Who runs it day to day?

We do: the matching, every group chat, the weekly check-ins, and re-matching when a pair stalls. Your staff don't have to do anything.

How do you choose the pairs?

AI suggests pairs from training times (same gender by default). A person checks every pair before we send anything.

Does it connect to Mindbody, ABC or PushPress?

It doesn’t need to. Once a month we ask for a quick export of new members’ check-ins, so we both see the same numbers. Nothing for your members to download.

What if two members don't get along?

Everyone is 18+. Pairs are same-gender by default and train during staffed hours. Either member can ask for a new partner at any time, and anyone who is reported is removed from the program.

Why is the first month free?

We’re new, and we’d rather prove it than promise it. After the first month it’s $350 a month (about £263). No contract — cancel any month.

How do you message members?

WhatsApp in the UK, text in the US, from our number. Members opt in themselves.

What if nobody else joins at that time?

The Guide still says hi, and we pair them as soon as someone joins at that hour.

Is it GDPR-friendly?

Members opt in, 18+, and we keep only first name, phone, chosen time and their replies to our messages. Read the privacy notice.

Where are you based?

Amman, Jordan. The program is built to run remotely: your members are the ones in the gym, and we’re with them in their messages every week.

Your newest members are deciding right now whether to stay. Give them someone to show up for.
