No matter what you want to do with your life, be passionate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>-Jon Bon Jovi<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Support &amp; Set up<\/h4>\n<p>Let\u2019s move forward to the next potential pitfall that can drag you down. Do you have some support around you?\u00a0 It could be your parents, best friend or partner, it does not matter but it does matter that someone is interested in what you are doing and why you are doing it., it will help drive you onward.<\/p>\n<p>If you know what kind of business you want and have some more support, you can now look at what sort of set up you want.\u00a0 In fitness there are lots of gyms, studios, personal training, wellness offerings that you can look at but consider your\u00a0available funds, how much risk you want and how much time you have to put into it. Many people don\u2019t put enough though into these factors and really take time to examine them \u2013 please do.<\/p>\n<p>One of the great things about a franchise is a lot of the preparation is done for you \u2013 product is ready, operational systems are ready and launch plan is ready.\u00a0 You also have additional back up from the franchise team itself, and they will be experts in their field.\u00a0 So, you get a lot of bang for your buck.<\/p>\n<h4>Costs &amp; Risk<\/h4>\n<p>Another plus point for RISE is the amount of \u00a3 investment required at the start and the time to run the operation compared with lots of other franchises.<\/p>\n<p>RISE Fitness franchising specialises in outdoor bootcamps but with a\u00a0difference!\u00a0 Our outdoor setting means accommodation cost can either be zero or very low compared with paying high street rent. The equipment required for launch is in line with stat up numbers and then builds up as your numbers build.\u00a0 That means your cash can be spent on the important job of marketing your business in the local area and this will help reduce your risk.<\/p>\n<h4>Time<\/h4>\n<p>The program for RISE franchise is that you concentrate on 2 face to face sessions per week for your cohorts and then the rest of the support is provided online.\u00a0 This means that your time can be scheduled, and you can say goodbye to those super early starts and late finishes with dead time in between that plagues pure personal training businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Local is another way that you save on time, it means your travel time is low and so is your members, this is good for everybody and is time efficient. This means you have more control over your work\/life balance.<\/p>\n<h4>Tech Partners Help Create Success<\/h4>\n<p>Our key partners, Myzone and Virtuagym, means we bring the best tech together to provide a highly personalised members journey that gets them results and keeps them engaged.\u00a0 Your outdoor bootcamps come with heart rate monitoring, activity targets, online nutrition plans and a full digital workout library.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s summarise how RISE can help put you on the right path:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A positive and on trend industry<\/li>\n<li>Low start-up cost<\/li>\n<li>Support &amp; guidance<\/li>\n<li>Great for your lifestyle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting your own business is a great way to get more control over your earnings\u00a0AND\u00a0your lifestyle, but what are the potential pitfalls to look out for when taking the big leap?
