HOTWORX welcomes new franchisees, Sarah and Douglas Rothgeb & Jennifer and Wade Lamont, who were awarded 3 franchise licenses in the Milwaukee market and are currently in Presale at their Milwaukee, WI (Downtown) studio!
What originally motivated you to consider a business opportunity?
We have been interested in having greater control of our future financial success and how we spend our time.
What led you to explore franchising rather than an independent business?
Using a proven system and accessing existing business resources to meet our goals quickly was a deciding factor.
What was your initial impression of your first HOTWORX session?
We already were sold on the health benefits of saunas and exercise. Experiencing them combined for an efficient, high energy session was exhilarating! The dry heat was comfortable, yet got us sweating immediately.
How was your experience going through the HOTWORX Discovery Process?
We made a connection with our recruiter on the first phone call. Cynthia was professional, knowledgeable and extremely experienced in the franchising industry. We never left a phone call feeling like our questions were misunderstood or went unaddressed.
How would you describe your Orientation Day and meeting the HOTWORX Executive Team?
We were very impressed with the HOTWORX team. Their energy and enthusiasm for the business was genuine and gave us confidence to move forward. When Steve said, “Our product is results” that really resonated with us. It was clear that we would receive the marketing and technology support needed to be successful. The level of detail shared was very informative and built on all we had learned from the Discovery Process.
What advice would you give to other entrepreneurs considering the opportunity to franchise with HOTWORX?
If you are excited about the product, it will be more than worth your time to go through the Discovery Process and Orientation Day.
What are the top 3 reasons you chose to franchise with HOTWORX?
1. We found an existing business concept that aligns with our passion for health and wellness.
2. We have the opportunity to be the first to bring this efficient and affordable workout concept to our area.
3. Talking with existing franchise owners and hearing their energy and excitement about their business.
What excites you the most in offering HOTWORX to your community?
We believe that the benefits of hot exercise will quickly lead to results and create a lasting win – win for us and our members. Wisconsinites will love the concept and results!
What goals do you plan to accomplish in your first year as a HOTWORX franchisee?
Educate and excite the community on the benefits of hot exercise, build brand awareness and deliver results for all of our members. By doing this, the success of our first studio will build a foundation for expanding and opening multiple locations in our market.
How will HOTWORX help you achieve your personal and professional goals?
By providing the foundation to build a small business, HOTWORX is enabling us to achieve our financial and entrepreneurial goals. Ultimately this will lead to flexibility we wouldn’t otherwise have in the future. We all plan on leveraging the workouts for our personal health and fitness goals!
