“How do I get more leads?”Gym owners keep asking this question, but it’s actually the wrong one.Leads aren’t the issue – and they never were. They’re coming in. What’s broken is what happens after that.This episode gets into the weeds of what actually moves people through the door and keeps them from bouncing. And it’s not just about marketing tactics – it’s about tightening up the entire chain of actions that need to happen for someone to go from seeing your ad to becoming a long-term client.Tim and Randy break down what really goes on once someone hits your pipeline. Not just the obvious steps, but the ones that get overlooked – the follow-ups that don’t happen, the confusion points that slow people down… Because that’s where the breakdown happens: in the middle, when progress stops and no one’s paying attention.Every missed step adds friction. And friction kills momentum. Whether it’s a missing booking link or expecting someone to overhaul their life in week one, the result’s the same: they’re gone.Tune in.
