LOOKING TO IMPROVING THE BOTTOM LINE?
Leisure facilities are under more pressure than at any time over the last ten years to attract new members and offer existing members more options. We look at some of the software systems offered to improve membership strategy, increase yields, generate and convert new prospects and improve front desk systems. We look at what they have to offer, whether it’s a worthwhile investment and the practical help they can bring to improve margins and generate more profits.

WHAT COMMERCIAL POOLS NEED TO DO TO GUARANTEE THE PUBLIC SWIM IN BACTERIA FREE PURE WATER
Chlorine or non chlorine? Is investment in UV systems the answer on longer term purity? How often should pools be tested and what systems are in place if anything goes wrong? We look at the pressure commercial pools are under to guarantee safe water yet cut energy costs and be seen to test non chlorine options which swimmers increasingly prefer.

IS IT TIME TO DIVERSIFY?
Is it time for your leisure centre to offer something new for 2009? The Xbox generation has now been attracted by technology such as dance and interactive fitness equipment. There’s a new generation of products for dance systems for group exercise classes and the market has attracted new imaginative alternative equipment for the serious trainer or the casual visitor. We look at what’s likely to pull in new members to leisure centres in 2009.
