"Everything is important- that success is in the details." - Steve Jobs

A fitness center can have the newest and most innovative equipment around. But if no one is using it, does it matter? Putting professionals into your fitness spaces to handle all of the operational details can make a world of difference in how successful your fitness amenities and programs are and how much they’re appreciated by those they were built for. 

How successful your fitness and wellness facilities and programs are depends on a number of factors, including ensuring staff are well-trained, a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment is provided and detailed and easy-to-understand standardized operational processes are well-communicated and followed. These processes may include anything from opening and closing procedures and cleaning and safety checks to administrative functions such as invoicing, payroll, reporting and operating system management.

According to Angela Nichols, President of Elevation Health, “No matter the situation, there are fewer questions and less errors when there is consistency. Elevation Health serves clients of all shapes and sizes. Some of our locations do not have any on-site staff while others have staffing levels exceeding 20 employees. When your processes are standardized this allows your members to know what to expect each time they visit and have a positive experience all the way around.” 

To that end, Elevation Health ensures that every team member not only meets industry standards, but also elevates the overall experience for members and communities alike by listening to front-line feedback and committing to professional development opportunities. Through its Elevation Elite program, the company upholds a standard of excellence and equips and motivates staff to deliver top-tier service.

“It is imperative that we continually stay current in an industry that is constantly changing. Elevation Health’s operations team works with our front-line staff to ensure that process changes are being implemented and followed, ensuring a consistent experience.”

Additionally, when operational procedures are streamlined, employees have more time to focus on the things they are passionate about. Nichols added, “Elevation Health works to make it easy for our fitness professionals to accurately and efficiently handle their administrative tasks, ensuring they have the freedom and flexibility to focus on their passions. Providing our team members opportunities to grow and learn in their careers benefits not only the employee but the fitness community at large.”
