I have been using the Good Gym Guide Web-Leads program for many years prior to starting Fenix Fitness Clubs. It was without hesitation that we continued to use this service for all Fenix Fitness Clubs nationally from day one as your Web-Leads program provides our clubs with a consistent source of new leads. Our clubs regularly return an investment greater than 100:1 from the Good Gym Guide making your service one of, if not the most cost effective form of online lead generation available to Australian gyms.

When putting together our marketing budget the Good Gym Guide is always included as a cornerstone of our online marketing campaign for all new and existing clubs.  I would highly recommend employing your services to any gym owner or sales manager wishing to increase their sales.  
Thanks again Dean. We look forward to working with you for many years to come.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Dean,

I have no hesitation in recommending the Good Gym Guide as a very effective form of online lead generation. As Melbourne’s longest serving health club we have seen the transition in the market towards web based search engines. We would be very short-sighted to ignore the popularity of the Good Gym Guide as a significant lead generation tool.

All seven Re-Creation Health Clubs have listings with the Good Gym Guide and we find that the guide generates a high volume of leads daily. The conversion of these genuine leads to membership is very high therefore well worth the investment. Setting up a listing is very quick and the Good Gym Guide are always professional in their approach. Another advantage of GGG over its competitors is the detailed information provided in each lead. We have also found other similar websites unable to deliver the sheer number of leads generated by www.goodgymguide.com.au
Thank you Good Gym Guide!

Yours sincerely ,
Joanne Russell
Managing Director
Re-Creation Health Clubs

After managing sales for health clubs for over 2 years I found the most difficult part of sales was not the selling part of the sales procedure but instead the initial part of prospecting. How do you get people in the door of your health club? Instead of getting out there and  finding prospects to join the club why not get the prospects out there finding you? Seams a lot easier and working smarter instead of harder seamed like a decent way of doing business for me! 

After joining the Good Gym Guide I found that it changed the way in which we do business. Understanding that the public are becoming a lot more technology based, generating prospects via the web seamed like a good idea. A few years ago web based lead generation was a step out side the square but is common practice today. 
Good Gym Guide compared to other web based lead generators, generates for our business, anywhere up to 10 times the amount of leads into my in box on a daily bases. Not only does Good Gym Guide generate a lot leads, but they are also positive (hot leads) as they are people actively looking for a health and fitness center and are generally interested in getting started to achieving there personal goals. For the minimal cost of an annual subscription on Good Gym Guide you would be a very foolish business operator not to take advantage of a simple and inexpensive way to generate new business for your own business.

If you are looking for that little something extra to help your gym bring in new leads, then you need to join the Good Gym Guide.  Our club has been using the Good Gym Guide Web-Leads program with great success since 2005.  A few months ago we re-branded our business without any interruption to our service.  We receive one new lead every single day from the Good Gym Guide – that’s a projection of 31 new prospects coming into my business in just one month!  I’m sure I don’t need to tell you, but that’s fantastic marketing.

Not only that, I have found the team at the Good Gym Guide to be incredibly helpful in displaying my business the way I want it displayed and in helping me track my metrics.  I have no hesitation in recommending the Good Gym Guide for promoting your gym; you will see results.

Having made a decision to look at online expansion, we were somewhat dubious of getting results from listings with online gym directories. The Good Gym Guide has, however, delivered enquiries from the first few days of the listing going live, and has continued to deliver on a consistent basis ever since – vastly outperforming its competitors. In fact it has been my best performing marketing tool to date, not only looking at enquiry numbers but cost-effectiveness too.

Good Gym Guide delivers an extremely good return on investment and it gets your business at the top of search engines. Lifestyles Corporate Wellness gets enquires sent straight to our inbox nearly every day. What a great way to start your day, being handed a prospective new lead, GGG is a must for any business!

We have found the Good Gym Guide to be an extremely effective online marketing tool which continually provides us with a constant flow of relevant leads into a highly competitive market place. Good Gym Guide is by far the most effective form of online lead generation that our club utilises. Not only do we receive a high number of leads from the Good Gym Guide each month but also another bonus for us has been the dramatic increase in traffic to our clubs website from www.goodgymguide.com.au 
After being with the Good Gym Guide for nearly 3 years we are continually impressed with the high level of customer service from the director and his responsiveness to any changes required to our listing, especially in relation to upcoming promotions. We highly recommend the Good Gym Guide to clubs looking for an effective online marketing tool whose result are easily quantifiable.
If you have any further questions regarding the effectiveness of this online media please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks Dean!

Since listing on Good Gym Guide last year our club has consistently averaged over 25 additional new leads each month.  Considering it takes just one new member  to cover the cost of our 12 month listing it’s great value!  In addition the traffic to our website has dramatically increased which I attribute to the prominent position the Good Gym Guide has with all the major search engines, and the link you provide to our website.

It certainly gets the thumbs up from us – thanks Good Gym Guide!

Yours sincerely,

Dear Dean and all at the Good Gym Guide,
I just wanted to let you all know how happy I am with your services. The design you've put together for our studio is lovely and very thorough. And I also appreciate very much the speed of your responses to changes in business hours and other details I've asked to be added to our listing.
Since our listing began, our studio has been receiving regular enquiries from your site and I know that the investment we've put into the listing has been repaid many, many times over. In fact, I believe that the Guide is the most cost-effective advertising that we currently utilise.
Thanks again

Hi Dean, 
Just a quick letter to thank you for your prompt service in setting up the alterations to our listings, you've been fantastic to work with. I think the Good Gym Guide is a great concept and I am glad we set up our listings when we did. South Yarra Sports Centre is certainly  benefiting from the Good Gym Guide's popularity with the search engines. Hopefully our third year on the Good Gym Guide will be just as successful as the last two.

Keep up the good work.
Thanks again

Hi Dean

I am extremely happy with the Good Gym Guide referrals. When I 1st heard about the service that was offered I wasn't sure that it would work so I purchased the basic membership to try it out. After a few months I received so many referrals which I tuned into sales that I paid for a full membership. Its Fantastic!

I am ecstatic, really happy with all the recommendations. The Good Gym Guide is fabulous. Anyone whom wants any  extra clients should jump on board today. Don't hesitate. After all there is enough wok out there for us all. Thanks heaps Dean you rock!

Yours sincerely ,

Hi Dean, 
"Being listed on the Good Gym Guide has brought us to the attention of many overseas visitors who search the web before moving to Perth.  Your site has also attracted quite a few locals that have moved into the area. The Good Gym Guide is listed very prominently on the major search engines and therefore receives good exposure when searching for fitness centres.  Our records show that we had a total of 410 visitors via our website for the period 2002/03 with most of these as a result of our WebLink on the Good Gym Guide. Since we first listed our business 3 years ago, the Good Gym Guide has been well and truly paying for its self and has shown a steady growth each year. Hopefully the next few years will be just as successful as the last 3".

Keep up the good work!
