Your Custom CRM: Tailored Lead Management for Gyms That Drives Real Retention
We've helped over 150 fitness studios replace subscription overload with owned, AI-powered systems that feel like an extension of their team.
Why Choose Us
Let's be honest—running a gym means dealing with a flood of inquiries from New Year's resolution seekers or summer body chasers, but without the right tools, most slip through the cracks. Here's the thing: generic CRMs treat your leads like faceless data points, ignoring the personal touch that turns a casual drop-in into a loyal member. At AIQ Labs, we build your CRM from the ground up, custom-coded to match your exact workflow. Think automated nurturing that references their preferred classes, AI scoring that flags hot prospects based on engagement, and seamless integration with your scheduling app. You're probably thinking, 'But I don't want another rigid system.' That's why ours is flexible—built for you, scaling as your gym grows, without the vendor lock-in.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock These Wins for Your Gym's Growth
Skyrocket Lead Conversion with Smart Scoring
Skyrocket Lead Conversion with Smart Scoring: No more guessing which walk-ins will stick around—whether they're eyeing your bootcamp trials or meditation sessions. Our AI analyzes behaviors like booking a barre class or engaging with your wellness newsletters to score leads accurately. Gyms using this see 35% higher conversions within the first 90 days, turning one-off visitors into committed members who renew their yoga packages without reminders.
Streamline Onboarding to Cut Early Drop-Offs
Streamline Onboarding to Cut Early Drop-Offs: Picture this: a new lead books a Zumba class, gets an instant welcome sequence tailored to their goals like core strength building, and checks in seamlessly with QR code scanning. This custom flow reduces admin time by 25 hours a week, letting your team focus on what matters—building that member experience that keeps retention rates above 80% for Pilates and cardio programs.
Gain Insights That Predict and Prevent Churn
Gain Insights That Predict and Prevent Churn: Like a personal trainer spotting form issues before injury in a strength training session, our CRM flags at-risk members early based on dips in spin class attendance or negative feedback surveys. Studios report 28% better retention over six months, with intuitive dashboards that make data actionable for tweaking wellness programs, not overwhelming.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we'd lose half our trial sign-ups from our monthly bootcamp open houses because follow-ups were manual and scattered across notes. Now, the custom CRM auto-sends personalized warm-up tips for their first HIIT class right after signup, and we've bumped our conversion rate from 20% to 55% in just three months. It's like having an extra staffer who never sleeps and knows every member's fitness level."
Sarah Jenkins
Owner, FitCore CrossFit Studio in Austin, TX
"Our old system couldn't handle the rush of January resolution leads inquiring about personal training—everything got buried in emails and voicemails. This built-for-us CRM integrates seamlessly with Mindbody and prioritizes high-intent folks, like those repeat-booking our indoor cycling classes three times a week. Retention's up 32% year-over-year, and front desk stress is way down during peak hours."
Mike Rivera
General Manager, Peak Performance Fitness Center in Chicago, IL
"I was skeptical about custom tech after ditching three generic subscriptions that didn't track our yoga retreats properly, but this CRM nailed our workflow from day one. It tracks engagement from Instagram wellness challenges to in-studio mat check-outs, helping us nurture prospects focused on mindfulness and flexibility. We've added 150 members this year without extra marketing spend, all through targeted follow-ups."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this custom CRM handle the influx of leads during New Year's resolutions?
Peak seasons can overwhelm any gym, but our system is built for it. We design AI-driven triage that instantly categorizes leads—say, separating cardio enthusiasts from yoga seekers—and triggers tailored follow-ups. For instance, if someone inquires about bootcamps, it auto-sends a schedule with a discount code. This cuts response time to minutes, not days, and we've seen clients handle 300% more inquiries without extra staff. It's flexible too; we can scale automations based on your historical data, ensuring nothing falls through during those high-stakes months. Plus, it integrates with your calendar to book tours on the spot, turning buzz into bookings.
Will this integrate with my existing gym software like Mindbody?
Absolutely, integration is our specialty. We create deep, two-way connections so lead data flows effortlessly—new sign-ups from Mindbody auto-populate in the CRM, and engagement notes update back instantly. No more manual exports that waste hours. For a typical studio, this means tracking a lead's first class attendance directly in their profile, enabling smarter nurturing. We've done this for dozens of fitness businesses, reducing data errors by 90% and giving you a single view of every prospect's journey. If your setup includes other tools like email platforms or payment processors, we customize those links too, making your workflow feel unified and owned.
How much customization can I expect for my studio's unique needs?
We're all about that perfect fit—nothing generic. We start by mapping your exact process, like how you handle corporate wellness leads versus individual drop-ins, then build features around it. Want AI to score leads based on their interest in group classes versus personal training? Done. Or automate retention nudges for members attending less than twice a week? We code it in. A client with multiple locations got location-specific dashboards, boosting cross-studio referrals by 25%. It's not a template; it's engineered for your retention goals, with flexibility to tweak as your offerings evolve, like adding virtual session tracking. You end up with a system that's as unique as your gym's culture.
What kind of results have other gyms seen with this?
Real talk: gyms using our custom CRMs report tangible lifts. One boutique studio saw lead-to-member conversions jump from 15% to 42% in six months by automating personalized onboarding—think welcome emails with goal-specific workout tips. Another chain reduced early churn by 29%, thanks to predictive alerts flagging disengaged trials early. Overall, clients save 20-30 hours weekly on admin, reinvesting in member events that drive loyalty. These aren't hypotheticals; they're from fitness pros like you who've ditched fragmented tools. We track outcomes like retention rates and ROI on lead spends, ensuring your investment pays off in fuller classes and steadier revenue.
How long does it take to build and launch the CRM?
Timelines vary by complexity, but most gyms go from discovery to live in 8-12 weeks. We kick off with a quick audit of your current leads process—maybe spotting why walk-ins aren't converting—then prototype key features like AI scoring within the first two weeks for your feedback. Building follows, with testing to mimic busy days, like a Saturday rush. Launch includes hands-on training so your team hits the ground running. For a mid-sized gym, this means handling real leads within a month of go-live. We're efficient because we focus on high-impact elements first, like nurturing automations, and scale from there—no endless delays like with off-the-shelf setups.
Is this CRM secure for handling member health and contact data?
Security is non-negotiable in fitness, where you're dealing with sensitive info like injury histories or contact details. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, GDPR/HIPAA-compliant protocols, and role-based access so only authorized staff see lead profiles. For example, front desk views basic inquiries, while managers get full analytics. Our systems undergo regular audits, and we've secured data for wellness brands without a single breach. You own the data too—no third-party risks from shared platforms. If your gym serves corporate clients, we add extra layers for consent tracking in wellness programs. It's peace of mind, letting you focus on retention, not worries.
