HOTWORX congratulates franchisees, Sherley Georges and Fritz Richardson, who were awarded 3 franchise licenses in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale market and recently opened their Davie, FL (University Dr. & Griffin) studio!
What led you to explore franchising rather than an independent business?
While we have other independent businesses, this is our first franchising experience. We thought joining and investing in a platform/product that is already working and aligning with our perception would be great, not only because the concept is unique, but also because we are fitness and wellness oriented.
What was your initial impression of your first HOTWORX session?
The motto was proven: More workout in less time. We had never sweat so much in such a short time in our entire life. We believe it is a great combo and being able to workout in a sauna is just mind blowing. I (Sherley) vividly remember that I decided to buy a membership the minute the skin benefits were mentioned during the studio tour.
How was your experience going through the HOTWORX Discovery Process?
We do not want any other franchise if it doesn't work like this one. Patricia was just fantastic, patient, and so professional. The Discovery Process went smoothly and we had no doubt that we wanted to move forward. The message was consistent and clear at all moments.
How would you describe your Orientation Day and meeting the HOTWORX Executive Team?
Orientation Day was informational, welcoming, proactive and motivational.
What advice would you give to other candidates considering the opportunity to franchise with HOTWORX?
Do not hesitate! Take a leap of faith! It is well structured and it is not everyday that you have a free coach for your own business.
What are the top 3 reasons you chose to franchise with HOTWORX?
1. Unique concept
2. Fitness oriented
3. Attractive business model
What excites you the most in offering HOTWORX to your community?
The way our body has to manage both processed food and stress on a regular basis makes it mandatory to find an activity that can help you burn it all and maintain balance. Being able to help a community achieve a healthier lifestyle is a noble cause. We can't wait to hear and read success stories from members of our own studios.
What goals do you plan to accomplish in your first year as a HOTWORX franchisee?
We are aiming for 500 members in 4 months, 1000 members for our first studio in 12 months, and why not open our 2 other studios within the same year?!!!
How will HOTWORX help you achieve your personal and professional goals?
I believe HOTWORX will allow us to positively impact people in our community and definitely create more assets on a personal level.
