Fitness Center Fit4You Chooses eSoft Planner

CINCINNATI, OH (March 24, 2009) Loveland-based Fit4You, Cincinnati's only family-oriented fitness club, has chosen PPC Communications' new eSoft Planner scheduling and management software to streamline its business operations, build customer satisfaction and save the company time and money - at least $10,000 savings in 2009 alone.

Created for small to mid-size companies with multiple scheduling and planning needs, eSoft Planner offers six modules designed to manage the operations side of businesses like fitness centers and personal training facilities, spas and salons, music lesson providers, sports facilities, photographers and more. Modules include location rentals, appointments, packages, leagues, memberships and camps/classes; each one allows customers and businesses to schedule appointments and pay online in real time, anytime, increasing customer convenience, eliminating unnecessary phone calls and administrative tasks, and saving businesses thousands of dollars through features like service consolidation and group rates on online transactions. eSoft Planner is customizable to clients' individual needs, never requires software upgrades and can be used for individual modules or as a package.

Fit4You utilizes eSoft Planner's membership, appointment scheduling, packaging and camps/classes modules, allowing the fitness club to manage their entire business with one system. Clients sign up for classes, schedule personal training appointments and pay online ahead of time, while Fit4You's trainers manage their own schedule online as well. Management easily pulls reports to track revenue, class loads and trainer schedules, and electronic funds transfers (EFTs) are deposited daily through eSoft Planner's secure online retail partnership with Authorize.net, keeping revenue steady throughout the month. eSoft Planner's email system provides immediate receipts and confirmations to both clients and employees, and sends automatic reminders as appointments approach so no-shows are far less likely.

Fit4You owner Bob Steele said, "We are excited and pleased with this internet based program. Support is fantastic and eSoft has customized its software to meet the unique ways our fitness club operates. We'll save at least $10,000 in software fees this year alone thanks to the eSoft Planner system."

Fit4You is a privately owned fitness facility in Loveland. We have built our facility on the philosophy to provide the best fitness solution to individuals at all levels of conditioning through quality supervised programs and services. Fit4You (www.fitfouru.com) is conveniently located at the interchange of I-275 (Exit 54) and Ward's Corner Road in Loveland, Ohio at 524 Wards Corner Road.
