Dave Reeves from Promote Leisure presented the best practices of the sales process. The sales methodology will be explained step by step, in a clear and concise manner. By the end of the day delegates gained knowledge on how to enhance their leisure business and had a clearer understanding of how to maximise the sales in your leisure business.

Guy Griffiths from GGFit spoke about breaking down the extensive subject of health club member retention into constituent parts. Once you know how to identify the critical segments for your club, we will focus on how to get results in each area.
