Notice of Potential Texting Overage Charges

To reign in the high costs of texting, which is a service paid for collectively through the Marketing and Services Fund, we must escalate from gentle warnings to billing overage fees. We have begun sending invoices for volume above 10,000 per month at the rate of $0.014 per text. This is the only way we can keep it fair for everyone and avoid raising rates. All fees collected will go back into the Marketing and Services Fund. You can view your gym’s current usage in Text Request > Reports > Usage. Keep an eye on your usage every week. To calculate any potential fees, use this formula with a sample monthly usage of 33,067: Monthly Allowance: -10,000Texts Over Limit: 23,067Overage Rate: x 0.014Overage Fee: $322.94 Please keep this in mind so you are not caught off guard when July is billed at the beginning of August. We know that, with turnover and task delegation, not every team member is privy to the strict texting guidelines. We have updated the Texting...

Omnify Launch Update: New Technology Platform

The transition to our new technology platform has always been a monumental task. Building a system that accommodates every operational nuance of My Gym requires time and precision. While we initially underestimated the launch timeline, we are now very close to unveiling the system. Key Update:The Pasadena Richmond UK My Gyms will be the first to go live on June 16th. We are currently seeking additional gyms in Southern California to volunteer as early adopters. For these initial launches, we will have full support, including Omnify’s engineering team on-site during launch day. If you are interested in being an early adopter, please email Mae Perez at mperez@mygym.com to be considered. Setting Expectations If we were building a brand-new technology platform from scratch, the process would be much simpler. However, transitioning from MGM, a dated system, requires extensive data migration—an effort far more complex than anticipated. This new platform introduces a different layout and workflow, and, as with any advanced technology, it will take time to become fully comfortable. The...

New Member Fun Pack No Longer a Mandate

As our gyms have learned, the New Member Fun Pack (NMFP) provides many important benefits to both members and franchisees. These benefits include, among others, your display of gratitude to members for their joining, the new member’s feeling of belonging, advertising and branding for your gym, and an extension of the My Gym experience to outside the gym. In short, your NMFP expenditure is an investment in enhancing your members’ experience and promoting your gym in a meaningful and lasting manner. For the reasons above, it has been a mandate that every gym provide a NMFP to every newly enrolled student. However, because MGE prefers to maintain winning protocols rather than mandates, MGE has decided to remove the NMFP from the list of mandates. It is still a best practice for gyms to give a NMFP to every newly enrolled student, and gyms still should do so, but gyms will not be defaulted if they don’t do it. This change is effective immediately. The NMFP currently consists of a...

It has been a very busy month for Mason Pulde. An already accomplished My Gym Franchisee with three operational gyms on Long Island, NY, he took over ownership of the Westfield, Glen Rock, and New Providence, NJ locations in late March.

We’re excited to celebrate our 1st Quarter Director Spotlight, Jenna Collard! Jenna joined My Gym Burlington, MA in May 2024, and her impact on the gym and the local community has been nothing short of amazing. Since stepping into the role, Jenna has led her gym to its highest enrollment numbers since 2020, with enrollments increasing by 35% in just the first three months of 2025 alone!
