Introduction FamilyFit is a unique CrossFit facility that incorporates regular CrossFit fitness with a family friendly atmosphere. This unique facility caters to busy family’s who want to both work out together and have a high standard for fitness. FamilyFit is for everyone, any skill level, and any fitness level. FamilyFit offers a unique and fun community atmosphere and expert coaching.

Community is at the heart of what this facility does. It offers a unique family fitness atmosphere, great programming and competitive pricing, and tonnes of fun through community events, a great workout atmosphere, and inclusion in the bigger CrossFit community events, such as the Open and the CrossFit games.

Operations PlanWhat is CrossFit?CrossFit is described by CrossFit Inc as “constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity. All CrossFit workouts are based on functional movements, and these movements reflect the best aspects of gymnastics, weightlifting, running, rowing and more. These are the core movements of life. They have the largest loads the longest distances, so they are ideal for maximizing the amount of work done in the shortest time”. Yet CrossFit is more than just movements by the body. It is a movement of like minded people that have come together the share in the work, the defeat, the wins, the pain and the achievements that all come with doing CrossFit workouts. CrossFit is a community, and this community is the reason that CrossFit is as effective as it is.

Who We Are and What We DoCommunity is at the heart of who we are and what we do. FamilyFit offers a unique community and family workout environment, inclusive of all age groups, fitness levels, skills and abilities. We do great workouts, with great coaches and great people, and we have fun doing it! In addition to unique and dynamic group classes, the facility also offers family classes and a dedicated kids area for kid’s classes. The kids’ area is viewable from the main gym area, and will be equipped with gymnastic equipment, barbells (for kids), weights, kettlebells and a fun zone! The kid’s classes will be geared towards having fun and learning functional movements, along with the basics of weightlifting. All coaches will be equipped to work with the kid’s classes.

The business is set up as a sole proprietorship, with myself, Janyce Yuzbasheva, as the sole owner and manager of the facility.

The ScheduleThe group classes, kids’ classes and family classes schedule is outlined in Table 2. This will be anticipated class and coaching schedule for the fist year.

administration, marketing and advertising, and anything else that could arise.

Marketing PlanPositioning StatementFamilyFit is a unique CrossFit Facility that offers an exceptional community atmosphere, quality programming, a family friendly atmosphere with individual, kids and family classes, and great competitive rates.

Value Proposition The value proposition of this facility is its offer of community. Great workouts can be achieved in many places doing many things. But this facility, in addition to offering a great workout for the entire family, which can be done solo or together as a family, is the great community atmosphere that comes with a CrossFit facility. No where else can one find an inclusive, caring, supporting atmosphere where no athlete is left behind, and no workout is too hard to finish. In this facility, everyone is part of the community, a pat of the family. Everyone from the owner down through the coaches, and members, to even the youngest member, is a part of the over community that makes working out here a place you find hard to leave even after your workout is finished.

They offer a great family atmosphere, where kids and parents are welcome to workout together, or separately. There is a dedicated kid’s workout area for kids only workouts, complete with all the equipment they would need. If the family chooses to WOD (work out of the day) together, the coaches are fully equipped to make sure that all athletes are comfortable at their level.

The programming is top notch. All the coaches will have their CrossFit Level 1 certification, and will be maintaining those standards. They will also be training regularly on new methods, safety, nutrition, athlete mental toughness, and other areas. This additional training helps all the coaches to know their members’ best and worst moments, and help them to have a better workout everyday.

FamilyFit also offers competitive pricing. Most CrossFit facilities have standard pricing. In Saskatchewan, the prices as outlined in Table 1, the Membership Prices table, are comparable to the prices found at other CrossFit gyms in Saskatoon and surrounding areas.

ProductThe product being offered is a community based CrossFit fitness program. The community is at the heart of this facility, and the fitness is the fun that comes with it. FamilyFit offers individual group classes, kids classes and family classes.

The individual group classes are fully scalable to any fitness level, and will focus on the fundamentals of CrossFit work outs. They are based on functional movements, and these movements reflect the best aspects of gymnastics, weightlifting, running, and rowing, the core movements of life.

The kid’s classes are specifically geared towards teaching functional movement and learning the basics of weightlifting, gymnastics and other core movements. These specialized classes are based on perfection of the movement, not on adding weight to movement. They are also based around having a whole lot of fun moving and being fit.

12 | P a g e

Page 14: FamilyFit: A Unique CrossFit Facility - edwards.usask.ca Painter...  · Web viewThis facility will provide coached classes that integrate weightlifting, functional movement, powerlifting

FamilyFit: A Unique CrossFit Facility July 7, 2017

The family classes are a special class geared towards allowing parents and kids, as well as any other family members, to work out together. The classes are based on the same CrossFit fundamental movements, and having fun together as a family. These classes are great for anyone wanting to try CrossFit for the first time, as well as any kids that want to workout with their parents. This class can be as intense or scaled back as needed for the members participating.

PlaceLocationSaskatoon is an ideal location for a new family focused CrossFit facility. The market indicates that even with four CrossFit facilities located in and around Saskatoon, that there is still a market for expansion and growth in the CrossFit industry. Since its inception in 2006, CrossFit has had steady growth in Canada, and specifically in Saskatoon. While all CrossFit facilities offer Kids classes to some degree, this would be the only facility that offers family only classes, in addition to individual group classes and kids classes.

Target SegmentFamilyFit’s ideal target segment is anyone looking to become fitter and healthier. More specifically, FamilyFit is targeting men and women aged 18-65 who may have families and children that want to improve their health and fitness level. These men and women may or may not have a knowledge of CrossFit and its modalities, and may or may not have an previous fitness experience. FamilyFit is also targeting kids who want to learn the principles of functional movement and the fundamentals of weightlifting. FamilyFit is also targeting men and women who want to learn about and improve their health and fitness ins a dynamic and inclusive community.

Membership GrowthFamilyFit has projected its growth over 5 years, based on its aggressive online and social media marketing plan, as well as word of mouth marketing. Acquiring memberships are the key to the success of this business, and its major risk factor. And membership revenue is the only revenue stream. The initial membership numbers are key to the first year of this business, with a projected growth pattern of more than 50% in the second year, and approximately 30% growth in years 3 -5. A complete table of the membership numbers and revenues with projected growth can be found in Table 7.

PriceMembership prices are based on standard pricing in similar CrossFit gyms in Saskatoon and surrounding area. See Table 1 for a full breakdown of the membership pricing.

It is anticipated that membership pricing could shift and adjust over the next 5 years, based on new membership groupings, possible new discounts, or the need to stay competitive if the price rises in other nearby facilities.

PromotionThe promotional plan for FamilyFit revolves around an aggressive and successful online, social media and word of mouth platform. Traditional advertising, such as radio and print ads will not be used initially, and potentially not at all.

The campaign will have to be aggressive in sharing information and community content, especially in the early days of the business. This will help to create a buzz about the business, and create business for FamilyFit.

The social media campaign will also take advantage of Facebook advertising ads.

Word of Mouth AdvertisingThe next most efficient way of creating recognition and business for FamilyFit will be successful work of mouth advertising. If members like being there, and like the community and the work outs, and feel they are successful, then they will tell their friends about their experience. FamilyFit’s main goal is to create an amazing community and fitness experience that members and potential members will want to talk about.

Marketing ExpensesThe main marketing expenses are related to the website and Facebook advertising. There is an initial cost to creating the website and then yearly expenses for maintenance and advertising. A complete breakdown of advertising expenses totaling $27,535 over 5 years, can be found in the Operating Expenses in Table 5.

Note that there is an additional $100,000 in debt financing, to finance some initial losses in the first two years of operation. Also note that in the third year of operations the business is no longer making losses, and continues to grow its revenues in the remaining 5 years. The debt will come from a combination of bank loans, loans for women in business and loans for Aboriginal People starting new businesses. The loans will be amortized over 10 years at a finance rate of 7%.

A complete explanation of the Capital Budget can be found in Table 3, and the Financing Budget can be found in Table 4.

Dividend PolicyThere is a $30,000 dividend policy that kicks in in year 5. It is set a $30,000 to allow any extra net income to be reinvested back into the business to assist in growing the business.

ProfitabilityFamilyFit is not profitable in the first 2 year of operation. In the third year, there is a small profit, and substantially more profit in years 4 and 5. To mitigate this lack of profit in the first two years, an additional $100,000 in debt financing will be secured. It is important to note that it is common in this industry to not have any positive net profits in the first couple year’s of operations. Table 8 shows the net profits for all 5 years, including any taxes paid.

Cash BalanceThe breakdown of the cash balance cab be seen in Table 9. The significance of this information is to show that there is some initial net cash flow in the first year, but then that decreases in years 2 and 3, and then picks up again. This is due to the increase of some expenses in those years. As mentioned earlier, this is common in the first couple of years, and an additional $100,000 of debt financing is borrowed to mitigate these losses in the first couple years.

It is important to note that there is very little actual cash coming into the business. Memberships are paid for on a month to month basis (or multiple months at a time, if the members choose). Generally, these will be paid electronically, through debit or credit.

Risk & Sensitivity AnalysisThe greatest risk to the success of FamilyFit is membership revenues. The sole revenue stream is based on memberships being sold, and without memberships, the business will fail. The analysis shows that the financial model is very sensitive to how many memberships are purchased and at what price. The model

shows that even a decrease in first year membership numbers from 65 to 60 shows a significant decrease of 61% in the average 5 year profits. The second part of the model shows what happens when the number of first year memberships remains the same, but a slight decrease in the membership price also shows a 30% decrease in the average 5 year profits. So reasonably, the third part of the model shows that a decrease in both membership prices as well as first year memberships shows a 66% decrease in the average 5 year profits. The changes in these numbers also shows up in the Net Payback, 5 Year Owners Compensation and the overall Value of the Equity. The complete Sensitivity Analysis can be found in Table 10.

Break Even Analysis and CushionThe Breakeven Analysis is based on the number of customers per month. As indicated in the Profitability and Cash Balances section, the first two years of FamilyFit’s operations are a negative net income. This is due to the amount of membership revenues collected in those first two years. As Table 11 shows, year one is 56% below the required breakeven numbers, and year two is 8.7% below the required membership numbers. However, based on the growth projections, years 3-5 show incredible growth, with a 37.3% cushion by the end of year 5. Note, as already mentioned, negative net profits are common in the first couple of years of this industry, followed by growth.

Owners Compensation Owners compensation is a great way to show the value of this business. With the $30,000 dividend policy, the financial model shows that the first 4 years of owners’ compensation consists only of the owners’ salary, with inflationary increases. This is to ensure that any profits in the first years are put back into the business. It is clear from the financial model that once the dividend policy kicks in, meaning that the business is making enough money to cover all its expenses, that the owners’ compensation grows. The complete owners’ compensation can be found in Table 12.
