What kind of franchise is Contours Express?

As you probably know, franchises let you concentrate on growing your business, not developing a system, which is where most small businesses meet their biggest challenges. With Contours Express, you'll be able to immediately concentrate on helping paying members meet their fitness goals. The concept is proven. From Subway to Starbucks, from McDonalds to Weight Watchers, these companies, like ours, have concentrated on packaging their business in a model that can be replicated predictably and produce great results anywhere. That's the magic of franchises.

Contours Express is known as a &;business model&; franchise. This means that each process a gym owner needs to master has been refined again and again. Independent small businesses must learn as they go, developing their own operations mechanisms and strategies. In short, they have to work &;on&; their business while they work &;in&; their business.. With Contours Express, the system is in place - all you need to do is follow it. If the provided training doesn't cover a specific aspect of the operation, Contours Express staff will be there to support you, and our on-line forums will let you tap the ideas of hundreds of other owners.

A franchise concept is never finished...we are always listening, folding in good ideas that can be incorporated system wide, and adjusting with the market. Our owners are polled regularly for best practices, problem areas, and things they hear their members talking about. This is then analyzed and the benefits are spread to all.
