🚀 Set Trainer Rates with Glofox Payroll

We’re excited to unveil a much-anticipated enhancement to our Pay Rates feature! We've just introduced the capability to assign trainers to a distinct pay rate. This update will provide you and your team with greater flexibility and control in managing your trainer’s compensation.  

So, what's new: 

  • Pay Rate Groups: Create one or multiple pay rate groups. Each pay rate group can have different rates for classes and appointments 
  • Assign Trainers: Once our pay rate group is set up, you can easily assign trainers to a pay rate group that reflects their level of experience and compensation  

Note: A trainer can only be assigned to one pay rate group.  

 What benefits will this enhancement have on your business?  

  • Flexible pay structures: Offer varied compensation based on the trainer’s experience, qualifications or performance  
  • Enhanced Efficiency:  Save time and reduce errors that occur when processing your trainers' pay rates manually 
  • Incentivize your trainers: Offering higher pay rates based on experience or performance can help to motivate your trainers   
  • Adaptability to market changes: The ability to adjust pay rates ensures your studio remains competitive in the market 

Why continue wasting time using spreadsheets to manually track each trainer's rate and class/appointment activity? Set up your trainer rates today in the Pay Rates section on your Dashboard.

Last Visit Updates – Roaming Visits Now Included

We’ve made some more enhancements to the Last Visit on the Member Profile!  

Up to now, the Last Visit has covered visibility of home visits only. Now, it incorporates both home and roaming visits. This will give you a holistic view of your members' interactions, determine trends in their behaviors and help you understand how to cater to your members. 

 
Here’s how it works:  

The last visit will always be determined by where the member last visited. For example: 

  • Roaming Visits: If a member's last visit was a roaming one, you'll see the date and time of this visit displayed alongside a distinctive house roaming icon. Simply hover to reveal the studio name, providing you with immediate context. 
  • Home Visits: If the member's last visit was at their home club, the roaming icon will not be visible, but you can still access the studio name by hovering over the visit details. 

We hope you enjoy exploring this enhanced feature and can use these insights to understand your members even more!

Boost attendance with Amplify’s Monthly Loyalty Milestones workflow

Ensuring members attend your studio frequently is a great indicator of their long-term retention and loyalty. Incentivizing that with timely and consistent messages and rewards can be a great way to drive that engagement. With Amplify’s new workflow - Monthly Loyalty Milestones – you can automatically message members with emails, SMS, and push notifications based on how many times they visit in the current month.  

As a quick reminder, a visit is counted when a client either scanned into the studio successfully or is marked as attended for a Class or Appointment. You can learn more on our article on the Visits Report. 

As always, we want to make these tasks as simple as possible so we have created the workflow to include a pre-defined template which you can freely edit.  

A top tip from our team: Try mixing and matching different tones of messages, based on what resonates with your community: 

  • Light nudges, for example, a push notification with a simple “Congrats on your 8 visits this month, keep it up 💪” 
  • Full rewards, like including a promo code for top attendees, for example, an SMS “Congrats on 20 visits this month! You can use LOYALTY10 to get 10% off your next pack of classes!” 


These different messages can be used together, such as light nudges incentivizing towards full rewards, or at different stages, such as defaulting to light nudges recurrently but including full rewards if you’re doing a monthly attendance challenge with your community. Try a few different approaches and see what works best with your members. 

You can find the workflow on Connect > Messages, as shown in the video tour below: 


You can also learn more through our Knowledge Base article. 

We hope this new workflow empowers you to engage your community in new and exciting ways and drives your member retention up, keeping more members at your studio. As always, we’d love to receive your feedback and any questions you have on this update as you start to use it!

Optimize business results: 

  • Fine-tune your subscription pricing strategy to improve monthly revenue. You can now react quickly to rising costs or explore new revenue streams.
