There cannot be many gyms in a modern metropolis - most of all, people value the opportunity to maintain good physical shape without moving far from their habitat, which means that even several multi-storey buildings near the newly opened fitness club will most likely provide it with a sufficient influx of visitors …
It is necessary
- - a premise on the ground floor with an area of 100-200 square meters;
- - registration of individual entrepreneurs, permission from the fire inspection and Rospotrebnadzor;
- - a set of sports equipment, professionally assembled, with the possibility of warranty service;
- - 2-3 trainers working on an hourly basis.
Instructions
Step 1
Start by looking for a space suitable for a small sports hall, having previously thoroughly studied the life and customs of the inhabitants of the area you have chosen. If young families leading an active lifestyle predominate among them, and there is not a single sports club nearby, then the place is undoubtedly well chosen. The minimum area required for equipping a gym is 100 square meters, but it is better, if possible, to rent a room twice as much.
Step 2
Register your undertaking when the place and premises for the sports club have already been selected - it is enough to simply register an individual business. Compulsory licensing for a fitness club is not required, but you will have to face the fire inspection and Rospotrebnadzor - it is necessary to coordinate the equipment of the institution with them even at several stages of preparing the center for opening.
Step 3
Order equipment for your gym, focusing primarily on its quality, since good exercise equipment is a direct guarantee of the success and prosperity of your club. Try to negotiate with the equipment supplier about the qualified installation of the simulators and their further warranty service. The purchase of simulators at the start of your club will become the most expensive item, while you cannot save on the purchase of equipment in any case.
Step 4
Organize a search for qualified personnel for your fitness center - it is not so easy to find truly experienced and qualified trainers among the many trainers. Try to hire instructors based on recommendations, and then conduct surveys among your clients, determining their degree of satisfaction with the skill level of a particular specialist. It is much easier to find an administrator for a sports club, and at first it is better to take this role on yourself.
