Instrumental in Your Success

HOTWORX congratulates franchisees, Kristi and Mark Wilson, who were awarded 3 franchise licenses in the Kansas City market. They opened their Olathe, KS (College & Lone Elm) studio this year and also purchased the existing Shawnee, KS (West) studio!

What originally motivated you to consider a business opportunity?
We own a freight brokerage and during the pandemic we started thinking about other income opportunities that would give us a more diverse portfolio. We have been talking about different things over the years but nothing ever struck us as a potential opportunity.

What led you to explore franchising rather than an independent business?
We already have an established independent business so this was something new and different for us.

What was your initial impression of your first HOTWORX session?
LOVED IT and have been hooked since!

How was your experience going through the HOTWORX Discovery Process?
It was good. Mandy was easy to work with, answered all of our questions, and was always helpful and very pleasant.

How would you describe your Orientation Day and meeting the HOTWORX Executive Team?
It was a long day on Zoom but very informative, however sometimes overwhelming because there was so much information. The Executive Team was welcoming, professional and guided us through all basic aspects, giving us an overall view of the journey we were all about to embark on. I wish we had been able to do the on-site orientation just because it sounded so fun and getting to go to NOLA is always a great idea!

What advice would you give to other candidates considering the opportunity to franchise with HOTWORX?
I would pass on the advice we have been given by several other franchisees across the country: make sure you have the time to devote as it is a lot of work, stay in touch with your coach as they are instrumental in your success, follow the checklists and don't try to reinvent the wheel - every guideline/rule is there for a reason.

What are the top 3 reasons you chose to franchise with HOTWORX?
1. We love the workouts.
2. We like the concept- a good workout in a short period of time because we are strapped for enough hours in the day.
3. Not only do we want to share how good we feel but also make money with a product we believe in.

What excites you the most in offering HOTWORX to your community?
Being able to show others what this product can do for them - be it physical goals, health goals or both.

What goals do you plan to accomplish in your first year as a HOTWORX franchisee?
We plan to work as hard as needed to hit the 500 member mark by first year end but hopefully way sooner than the end. We purchased 3 licenses and hope to have the second site location starting when we have construction started on the first. We want to get going as soon as possible to maximize our investment.

How will HOTWORX help you achieve your personal and professional goals?
Personal goals are in process as we joined a few months ago and go several times/week.

Congratulations, Kristi & Mark, and welcome to the HOTWORX team!
