"I started in the fitness industry in 2012 as a certified personal trainer, and now I’ve been a franchisee for three years. Looking at the brand as a whole, I feel like the business model is really fantastic. But more specifically, what I value the most is the level of support I get as a franchisee. Anytime I have questions or run into challenges, there’s always someone I can reach out to who will not only provide the answers but also help me navigate through the processes." - Kim

"In my mid-50s, I was ready for a new chapter and found the perfect fit with Snap Fitness in 2009. The smaller 24/7 model aligned perfectly with my vision, and the business model was spot on. People want to feel good and look good, and that's exactly what we aim to deliver." – Ed, Snap Fitness Franchisee

"Franchising is a smart decision because you can’t do it on your own—and it’s not worth trying. The support at Snap Fitness is truly second to none. I knew it would be successful, but I never imagined I’d be this happy with what we’ve built. It’s so much more than a gym; it’s about the community we’ve created." – Heather, Snap Fitness Franchisee

"I came out of the technology industry, but always knew I wanted to have my own business. I chose Snap because it gave you a level of support, but at the same time gave you flexibility as an owner to run your business." - Matt
