Today more than ever you need to know why you need a management software for your gym like TIMP. The truth is that running a sports center has never been an easy task.
On the contrary, managing a business of this kind requires exclusive dedication, and if you are responsible for one you know well what we are talking about.

Thus, if we take into account that in the same business several types of activities can be combined, each with different sessions, levels of difficulty and even modalities within the same discipline, the organizational chaos that we must face can be enormous.
That is why gym management is one of the most complicated tasks to carry out, but at TIMP we are here to help you.

And you may be wondering: what happened before the advent of gym management software systems, didn’t they work?
Obviously yes, but there was no choice but to do everything by hand, and this had its consequences: the enslavement of the owner and the gym professionals to manage everything.
Are you going to continue today with the determination to avoid any progress that would improve your day-to-day life?
It is the same as going to your village walking from the city to spend the weekend instead of using the car or the train.
On the one hand, it would take you a long time to get there: to be there on Saturday at noon you might have to leave 2 or 3 days in advance.
On the other hand, by the time you got to your beloved family retreat you would be so tired and your feet would be so sore that you would need the whole weekend – and possibly a few more days – to recover.

Walking to places is very healthy, it’s true, as long as it doesn’t compromise your physical integrity or use up the time you have set aside for other things.
If there are other more advanced means of transportation, you will agree with us that it is not practical to walk to your town 320 km away.

5 reasons why you need a management software for your gym
The time has come to dive right into the question of whether you need fitness software in your life.
Read on and you’ll find out why it’s taking you so long to use a gym management software:
Increased comfort and free time
This is related to what we discussed a moment ago: when you use a tool that helps you to organize better, to dispense with boring and outdated spreadsheets, to get real-time data about your business or to send scheduled communications to your customers you realize that you have something very valuable in your hands.
With TIMP you can do all this and much more from your dashboard, having all the control of your gym in one place.
Thus, you can manage all facets of your business in an organized, visual and comfortable way, automating many of the tasks that currently take you hours to perform.
You know what this means?
Go home sooner.
Enjoy!

Reservation automation

Loyalty through software for fitness centers
Have we already told you about queue management?
You see, when a user of the center goes to make a reservation but all the places for an activity are occupied, TIMP offers to put him in queue, which is nothing else than to remain on standby.
When another user modifies his reservation and moves it to another day, the person in queue can finally occupy the free place.
Customers like this very much.
It makes their day, believe us.
