Fitness studios

Convert trial classes into members and win back the ones who drift away

Gyms, yoga studios and boutique fitness brands rely on trial sign-ups, attendance and renewals. Wedo Automations helps with the communication between the first enquiry and a long-term member.

01 — Common problems

Where the time and enquiries tend to slip away

  1. Trial sign-ups do not show up

    People sign up for a trial class with good intentions and then forget, or feel nervous.

  2. No follow-up after a trial

    Visitors who enjoyed a class leave without being invited to join, and the studio moves on to the next session.

  3. Members quietly lapse

    Someone stops attending for a few weeks and nobody notices until the membership expires.

  4. Package expiry catches people out

    Class packs expire unused, leaving customers disappointed rather than renewing.

  5. Front desk is stretched at class changeover

    Answering schedule and membership questions competes with welcoming people at the door.

02 — Automation examples

What can be configured

Examples of workflows that can be set up for this type of business. Exact wording, timing and channels are agreed with you.

  • Trial class booking and reminder

    Confirmation after sign-up and a reminder before the class, with what to bring and where to go.

  • Post-trial offer

    A message after the trial inviting them to join, with the offer your studio decides on.

  • Lapsed member win-back

    Members who have not attended for a period you set receive a friendly check-in.

  • Package expiry reminder

    A reminder before class packs or memberships expire, with the renewal link.

  • FAQ assistant for the schedule

    Answers questions about class types, levels and pricing from content you supply.

    A first-timer books a trial class from your site.

    A follow-up shares membership options and an offer if you have one.

  5. Step 5: Becomes a member

    They move to the member stage and receive onboarding information.

  6. Step 6: Lapse check-in

    If attendance drops off for a period, a check-in message is sent.

04 — FAQ

Questions we hear in this industry

Attendance tracking depends on the booking or check-in system you use. If it can be connected, lapse messages can be triggered by it; otherwise your team can update the pipeline manually.
