Top Reasons Why Not to Buy Anytime Fitness Franchise

The company does not have a good reputation with the fitness community. The club members are a part of this industry and they are happy to share their experience about Anytime Fitness

The company's reputation is declining in the fitness industry.

The company does not have a good reputation with the fitness community. The club members are a part of this industry and they are happy to share their experience about Anytime Fitness. They will tell you that the overall customer service is very poor. Some of them would even say that their main goal is to collect the membership fees and not to provide personal training or maintain the equipment.

The company has a set of policies which make it almost impossible for its trainers to give personal attention to clients or train them in small group sessions. Because of this, it is common for trainers to quit within a few months of joining. It is difficult for them to offer quality service when they have more than 20 clients per day!

The salespeople will try to sell you things you do not need.

There are so many people who have joined Anytime Fitness and then regretted their decision because they were sold something they did not need and could not afford: an expensive personal training session, an overpriced contract, etc.

The franchisee has limited control over his business.

Many franchisees say that they feel like they are employees, not business owners because Anytime Fitness headquarters controls everything from marketing programs

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
