BIG congrats, Dawn!
Having your own business would be ever so cool. I'm sure you'll be a great biz owner.
Kick butt, girl.

Congrats.
Are there any SNAP Fitness places near you? That could impact the profitability of a Curves franchise.
I did the 3 week trial at Curves, and I made it in the first and last day. With the hours, it's certainly not for working
parents.
There is now a Snap fitness about 1 mile from the curves, and something open 24 hours is more enticing than something open 6 hours, 5 & 1/2 days per week.
It was a marriage that never really started.

Thank you all for the good wishes!!!
There are no snaps by us, I am in a very small community. The Curves is pretty well established has been at the same location for 5 years now!
I already have plans to open 3 nights a week for now and let mom's bring their kids in at set times so that it doesn't bother others. Also looking to tap the teen market as I work in a High School right now.
There are lots of opportunities to make this business grow.
I will keep my day job this next school year til I am firmly on my feet with the business. I have family that is going to help out alot!!!!
Again Thanks for the prayers and wishes!
