ZOOM LIVE STREAMING! With the advent of the current health crisis in America, it has become imperative for gyms, health and fitness clubs, educators and personal trainers to find new ways to serve their clients and at the same time stay aware of social distancing requirements that may change the way we all interact in the future. With this in mind we invite you to take a look at the new Zoom Live Stream feature we have added to our Gym Business Manager Software. Now with a quick and easy setup inside GBM, personal trainers, educators and club managers can live stream their exercise and training classes to unlimited clients in their homes every day. The clients can watch on an iPhone, tablet, desktop or television, depending on how they have their personal system set up.
• The process is really simple. Create a new product, for instance “Live Stream Zumba”, and simply click the checkbox that designates it as an online class. Then create an offer using the new product in the offer.
• Once you have built the offer, schedule it on the GBM Public Calendar. Using the “repeat” feature of the Public Calendar allows you to schedule the event for whatever days you want and for as many weeks as you want.
• Your club member or students then purchases the offer, even if the cost is $0.00. Then they go to the public calendar and book the event. As soon as one member joins the class it is automatically added to the Zoom system as an upcoming meeting.
• At a pre-determined time before the actual session begins emails and texts (texting service is required) with a link to the class are automatically sent to the participating members. The Trainer gets a link with a password which allows him to open the session. To join the class the member simply clicks on the link.
• All that is required, besides being an GBM user, is that the club must set up a Pro Zoom account at $14.99 per month. The members will need to download the zoom app and join zoom. All scheduling, notifications, billing and management is handled inside GBM. Once you are set up, all you have to do is schedule the class on the Public Calendar. This new feature can be used for fitness live streaming, video presentations, remote streaming educational classes, and meetings. Studios, trainers and facilities can make use of this new feature right now. It will work for One, two, ten or more trainers or educators per location.
