3 4 MYZONE If monitoring heart rate and calorie expenditure, and keeping your members accountable during and after their workouts is not benefit enough, Myzone is also a highly valuable tool because it plays a really important part in your members’ overall workout experience. This is because when you put a whole bunch of Myzone users together, who all want to get fit and healthy, you are essentially creating a community of people who are working towards a common goal. When you combine this sense of camaraderie with physical challenges in your club, the result is an active and passionate community who supports and encourages each other. Your Myzoners soon learn each other’s names and become friends, thus creating a social network and a great feel-good factor within the club. The challenges don’t need to be about who gets the most points or burns the calories; instead, they need to be focused on having members working out with other members and supporting each other. One great way to make your club stand out is to combine your challenge events with savvy marketing that is designed specifically to attract your demographic (i.e., please don’t use stock images!). For even greater success, create events such as fundraisers, launches, open days, club anniversaries/birthdays, etc; and use Myzone as a bonus opportunity, rather than as a competitive tool; this way everybody feels included rather than excluded by the element of competition. Myzone’s app, which can be used outside the club, will also be perceived as a bonus by your members. EVERY USP SHOULD BE ABOUT YOUR PSU BY MEL TEMPEST
