January signups are great but February churn is devastating
Gyms live and die by retention, not acquisition. Video content that maintains member engagement reduces churn by keeping members connected between visits.
You can't compete with national chains on ad budget
Planet Fitness spends $100M/year on advertising. Local gyms compete by building community — and community-focused video content is the most cost-effective way to do that.
Trainers are great at training, not content creation
Your best coaches are incredible with clients but struggle to create polished video content. The skill set is different and the time isn't there between sessions.
Social media posts get 50 views and you give up
Without consistent video content (3–5 videos/week), the algorithm doesn't surface your gym to local audiences. Sporadic posting is worse than no posting.
Member Spotlight Videos
Monthly 30-second videos featuring member transformations (with consent). Social proof that drives the highest conversion rate of any gym content type. Example: "[Member Name] Lost 30 lbs in 4 Months at [Gym Name] — Here's How"
Class Preview Videos
15-second high-energy previews of each class type. Run as Instagram and Facebook ads targeting fitness interests within 5-mile radius. Example: "This Is What 45 Minutes of HIIT at [Gym] Looks Like"
Trial Offer Ads
30-second Flash Sale format ads promoting free trials or first-month discounts. The video that fills your January pipeline. Example: "Your First Week Free at [Gym Name] — No Commitment, No Strings"
