While most fitness concepts need a large, densely populated city to work, fitWAVE’s small scale allows it to take root in towns with as few as 15,000 people and where the average income is as low as $65,000. This translates to a lower initial investment, lower ongoing costs like rent and the ability to avoid many of the rules and regulations that come with entering larger concepts.“We designed the fitWAVE concept to open up the threshold of attracting more quality franchises,” said Markowicz. “The opportunity to be an owner/operator is still there, but without any unnecessary overhead.”&nbsp;<h4>Why fitWAVE is Poised for Growth</h4>Markowicz’s strategy of a low-overhead, high-impact membership model has already made gains in the marketplace. In the last four months alone, the franchise has added three new locations despite an ongoing pandemic putting the majority of the industry in retreat.&nbsp;“Our model works so well that we can come in and rebrand existing facilities under our name, pull from our management team and leadership culture and really bring things together in any market,” said Markowicz.With locations steadily opening ahead of pandemic reopenings, now is the time to lock down a fitWAVE territory.ABOUT FRANCHISE FIT FOR YOUFranchise Fit For You is a franchisee-first franchisor and franchisee consultancy.
