HOTWORX welcomes new franchisees, Courtney & Brian Henchon and Megan Wilson, who were awarded 2 franchise licenses in Lafayette, Indiana and 1 license in Indianapolis, Indiana!
What led you to explore franchising rather than an independent business?
Collectively we were looking for franchising opportunities as a way to add value for our community. As we began researching franchises, we kept coming back to HOTWORX as a golden opportunity to our friends, family, and community. Being newer to operating our own fitness studio, it made sense for us to go with a brand that is quickly growing and has incredible brand recognition already. This would allow us an opportunity to have a circle of support to learn from and share best practices with.
What was your initial impression of your first HOTWORX session?
Our first impression of our initial workout was "Damn! It's hot!" But all jokes aside, we really liked it. We loved the studio, we loved the saunas, and quite honestly we had a really hard time selecting what session we wanted to try first. Upon completing our first workout, we all commented on the immediate difference we felt in our skin. It felt great.
How was your experience going through the HOTWORX Discovery Process?
Nancy Price was our recruitment person and she was great. We had so much going on personally as we were trying to get through the discovery process, but she was patient and understanding and really showcased key components on why we should continue to move forward. And we did just that...we pushed through and experienced orientation day on Friday the 13th at the start of a global pandemic. If that isn't good luck, we don't know what is.
How would you describe your Orientation Day and meeting the HOTWORX Executive Team?
Orientation was great. It was awesome to see the Marrero studio, to meet many of the executive team, as well as other new Franchisees, and experience a drive thru daiquiri stand.
What excites you the most in offering HOTWORX to your community?
HOTWORX is quickly expanding - it's always fun to get in on the ground level of any opportunity. We are most excited to offer infrared to our community in the form of 24/7 accessible workouts with wide variety. As nurses we want to see people focus on health and wellness, versus acute and chronic illness. We understand how adding infrared to your workout can help all types of fitness levels.
What goals do you plan to accomplish in your first year as a HOTWORX franchisee?
In our first year we plan to be a top performing franchise nationally. We fully expect to have large membership volume and very satisfied customers. We also plan to enjoy our studio to support our own personal fitness goals.
Congratulations, Courtney, Brian & Megan, and welcome to the HOTWORX team!
