Gym CRM: Track Trials, Members and Who Stopped Coming, Built with AI
A gym CRM earns its keep in two places: turning trial visitors into members and catching members before they cancel. Mythex builds one shaped like your gym, with trial stages, member goals, visit counts and a list of people who have gone quiet, and publishes it with a real database.
Who it's for
Gym owners and sales or membership managers who track enquiries in a notebook, trials in a spreadsheet and retention not at all, and who pay for a large club system while using a fraction of it.
What you can build
- Enquiry, trial booked, trial visited, joined or lost, with a reason
- Each member's goal recorded at joining
- Members with no visits in 21 days listed for a coach to contact
- Notes from each check-in call or message
- Referral source for every join
- Former members who left on good terms, for a return offer
Stages that match how people join a gym
Most joins go: enquiry, trial pass booked, trial visit, follow-up, joined. Make those the pipeline stages. Record the goal they mention on day one, because a follow-up that refers to it ('how did the deadlift feel?') works far better than a generic offer. Note why trials do not join, such as price, hours or distance, so you know what to fix.
- Trial pipeline with dates
- Goal captured at first contact
- Lost reason on every non-join
The retention list is the most valuable screen
The members most likely to cancel stopped coming weeks ago. If you import visits from your door system or log class check-ins, the CRM can list everyone with no visits in three weeks. A friendly message from their coach does more for retention than any discount, and logging that contact shows whether it worked.
Mistakes to avoid
Do not treat the CRM as a mailing list; the value is in personal follow-ups. Do not message lapsed members with a sales pitch; ask how they are and whether something changed. And collect marketing consent properly when people sign up, keeping it on the record.
What to put in first
Add this month's enquiries and trials, then import members with their join date and goal if you know it. Import last month's visits as a CSV to get the first retention list. After that, log every trial and follow-up as it happens.
A prompt to start from
Build a CRM for my gym. Track enquiries and trial passes through stages: enquiry, trial booked, trial visited, followed up, joined or lost with a reason. For members, record join date, tier, goal, referral source and visits imported from a CSV. Show a list of members with no visits in the last 21 days, and let coaches log check-in messages against each member.
Questions
Can it show which members stopped coming?
Yes, if visit data is in the app, either from class check-ins or a CSV import from your access system. The CRM then lists members with no visits in the period you choose.
Can I send messages from the CRM?
Yes, by connecting an email or SMS service. You can also just log messages you send from your phone.
Can it connect to my membership software?
If your membership system exports CSV or has an API, the data can be brought in. Otherwise the CRM can hold members itself.
How is this different from a big club system?
You build only what you use, with your own stages and fields, and change it by chatting. If you need full billing and access control, you can add it or keep your existing system alongside.
What does it cost?
Free needs no card and lets you publish. Pro at $25 a month adds your gym's domain and code editing.
