Fitness business consulting in Vancouver: how it works

If you own a gym or studio in Vancouver, you already know the costs. Rent is high, good coaches are hard to keep, and members have plenty of choice. Fitness business consulting is not about adding more to your plate. It is about deciding what to do first.

Who this is for

Gym and studio owners, fitness leadership teams and wellness brands that are already operating. You have members, a team and a business that works, mostly. Something keeps sliding: pricing, staffing, an offer nobody has rewritten, or retention that never quite holds.

Why a consultant who runs a gym

Dai co-owns CrossFit BC in Vancouver and was a partner and Chief Operating Officer of a multi-million dollar fitness retail company. He has made payroll, renewed leases and watched members walk out. The advice comes from that, not from a borrowed playbook. Read more in Lessons from co-owning CrossFit BC.

How it works

It starts with a conversation about the real constraint in your business. Vancouver owners meet Dai face to face before any engagement. From there the work covers operations, member experience, team alignment, offer clarity and growth decisions, in whatever order your business needs. You leave with a short list of decisions, in order, with owners and dates.

What it costs

Consulting is quoted after the first conversation, once the scope is clear. No package prices are published, because no two businesses need the same thing.
