In this episode, Tim and Randy will talk about the recent shutdown of businesses all over the US, including gyms, and how scary a time it is for gym owners. They have personally been affected and their clients have been affected too, which means they won’t be in business until it’s announced that businesses can re-open. Tim predicts that 25% of gyms will not make it out of the shutdown because right now it all boils down to whether gym owners will be able to adapt and sustain their businesses. 

The government has promised financial assistance to business owners but that always takes too long, so it’s really not offering much hope. In the Built to Grow spirit of helping gym owners win, Tim and Randy will share some of the things themselves and their clients are doing to sustain their gyms so they can help you adapt with your gym. Adapting is the only way a gym will come out strong on the backside of this Coronavirus shutdown, so stay tuned for more, go adapt and stay safe.
