What People Say!
"As an owner of an independent club,
I found myself somewhat isolated within the world of health
clubs. Jim gave me a window into the entire industry. In doing
so, he was able to directly affect the large increase in our
sales and to streamline our expenses. The end result was a
22% profit margin. If you can get him, get him!!"
..........R. Creel, White Rock
Athletic Club
"I've been in the industry since 1988,
seen many consultants come and go, and I can boldly and confidently
proclaim that Jim Thomas is the standard when it comes to
professionalism, meeting the clients needs, and seeing incredible
results. My investment into Jim has and will continue to multiply
many times over"
..........G. Eng, The GRAND
Health Club
"In the two year association
I have found Jim Thomas to be very knowledgeable in all aspects
of club management. He provided the expertise and leadership
we needed. He was instrumental in hiring and staffing my membership
department, and implementing new sales techniques. I would
highly recommend Jim for consulting in all areas of club management.
..........H. Wright,
Mid Valley Athletic Club
"While streamlining operations to keep
everything simple, Jim hired, developed and trained personnel
that are now an integral part of club management"
..........M. Granthun, Signature

"In short, Jim's skills as a motivator
and creative thinker have benefited us in many ways. He was
results-oriented and productive for us and will surely be
for any other club he works with"
..........C. White, Premier

and Jim was able to bring in fresh ideas to encourage the
sales team to achieve excellence, with such a competitive
market, we feel that his efforts were significant"
..........R. Scales, Rostland

and no support help, now sales are up, profits are up, and
our salespeople have developed new skills and habits to help
them reach their goals"
..........P. Siderius, World

have been the real keys to the success of our program. Simply
put, Jim has been the difference"

able to help us see our company through the eyes of our customer
and to offer insight and suggestions for creating an environment
conducive to increased sales"
..........D. Donley, Spring
Park Racquet Club
"FMC offers the essential basics
of selling and dealing with customers, but it is Jim's ability
to work with the individuals in the sessions on a regular
basis that reinforces and guides the individual to improve"
..........P. Bonacorso,
Ladies Only Fitness Center
"We needed someone who would
not only give us the specific information we needed, but would
see that we asked the questions we did not know to ask. Jim
gave us this and more. We have been in our facility for four
months after a year of preparation and pre-sales. As I think
back, Jim was instrumental in all the main systems and decisions
we made. What he did for us is give us perspective that we
did not have the time to develop on our own. He has the experience
to determine likely outcomes of specific advertisements, how
much one should budget for employee expenses, how to make
the biggest impact with changes to the club, how to work pricing
strategies, how to motivate and inspire sales staff. These
are just a few major areas in which he gave us direction.
I feel strongly that Jim would be an asset to any club undergoing
growth, change or in need of repair."
