gyms and studiosHow to wire it

Gyms wire intro → member vs ghost. Front-desk WhatsApp is not the clockDay 7–21 after intro predicts member vs cancel. Failed payments need a human save path.

Studios sell intros. The CRM does not know who is about to cancel. This vertical (single location or small group) wires intro booked/showed, day-7–21, lapse stage, failed payments, missed-call text-back, and reviews after they have trained — not a QR at signup panic. Intro ads without this clock rent Facebook for ghosts.

The short version

Intern through CEO

Studios sell intros. The CRM does not know who is about to cancel. This vertical (single location or small group) wires intro booked/showed, day-7–21, lapse stage, failed payments, missed-call text-back, and reviews after they have trained — not a QR at signup panic. Intro ads without this clock rent Facebook for ghosts.

  1. 01

    The weekly number is intro show rate and intro-to-member. Secondary: day-7 coverage on trials.

  2. 02

    WhatsApp at the desk will try to be the file. Put the thread on the contact or the next hire starts from zero.

  3. 03

    Class packs vs memberships are states. Mixing offers in one blast trains shoppers.

  4. 04

    Failed payments are ops, not a 'we miss you' coupon that trains fail-then-discount.

  5. 05

    Reviews after session three (or a completed intro block), not at the till while they are still deciding.

Who

Same system. Three jobs.

Read your row

Intern

What you actually do

Show and day-7 list. You are not choreographing a reel. You are the clock.

Operator

What you protect

Intro clock. Member vs ghost. Fail pay human. Reviews after they trained. Desk chat is not the file.

CEO

What you refuse to fund

Intros that do not become members are rented attention. Intro-to-member is the number. Until it exists, more ads fill a ghost intro calendar.

Wire

How to connect it

Objects, then edges

Intro event, show, trial vs member, day-7/21, lapse, failed pay, missed call, class pack vs membership, review after session three.

  1. 01

    Intro book/write-in; show same day

  2. 02

    Showed → trial clock; day-7 check

  3. 03

    Joined → member; intro acquire off

  4. 04

    Fail pay / lapse → human + sequence; not a brand blast

Steps

Do this in order

Why, then done when
  1. 01

    Intro jobs

    Booked, showed, joined, lost. Show rate.

    Why: Binder intros do not make Monday.

    Done when: Yesterday’s intros have show state.

  2. 02

    Day-7 coverage

    Task or field. Blanks are tickets.

    Why: This window is the business.

    Done when: List of trials missing day-7.

  3. 03

    Lapse named

    Stage + save. Fail pay separate if needed.

    Why: 'We’ll call them' is not a stage.

    Done when: Lapse count.

  4. 04

    Desk WhatsApp demoted

    Official number or GHL SMS on the contact.

    Why: Hostage SIM.

    Done when: Intro thread on a test contact.

  5. 05

    Review after trained

    Session-three tag or delay.

    Why: Signup QR is panic.

    Done when: Inquiry does not get the ask.

What an intern should wire first

Show states on recent intros. Day-7 blanks. Lapse named. WhatsApp vs GHL. Review trigger not on inquiry.

What the owner should refuse

More intro ads, a challenge month, or a new class type until intro-to-member exists. Ads into ghost intros are a tax.

The usual failure

Busy desk. WhatsApp file. No day-7. Fail pay ignored. Review at signup. That is a studio with a Facebook habit.

The weekly number

Intro show, intro-to-member, day-7 coverage. Fifteen minutes.

Why

Questions people actually ask

Pushback is normal

We’re a small studio.

Then the intern can run show and day-7 in 20 minutes. Small is not a reason for a binder.

Mindbody/Glofox is the system.

If HQ/owner can see intro-to-member and lapse, maybe. If the journey is WhatsApp, GHL (or the booking tool used as CRM) must hold the clock.

Intros are walk-ins.

Walk-ins still write a contact the same day. Pad names are not a clock.

This week

This week: intro jobs, day-7 coverage, lapse, official thread on contacts. No challenge calendar as the main work.
