A FRANCHISE OF FREEDOM
What makes Snap Fitness an exciting fran-
chise opportunity is the freedom they offer
entrepreneurs. With Snap Fitness, owners
have the flexibility to choose their hours,
Taunton says.
“
Though we encourage our franchise
owners to spend a lot of time in the stores
because the members want to see them, the
good news is if you have to go out for a couple
hours, it’s not going to affect the business.”
“
What franchisees really love about our
concept is the freedom that it gives them –
they do have the ability to leave in the after-
noon if they’ve got an appointment or to go
their son’s baseball game – and their business
is still open for operating,” Taunton explains.
“
It doesn’t affect the membership base at all.”
Another thing that makes Snap Fitness an
excellent franchise is the fact that they offer a
turnkey solution. When a franchisee asks for
information regarding their concept, they
are provided with a complete sales package,
which tells them everything about the busi-
ness.
“
I want my candidate to have a very clear
understanding of what it means to own a
Snap Fitness facility in today’s environment,”
