2025 Quarter 3 Newsletter – Practical Strategies for Continued Growth

It happens to everyone in fitness: You set a foundation for something because it works. It keeps working, sometimes for a little while, sometimes longer. But eventually, if nothing changes, the desired results will stop coming. You have to keep building. 

That's what Justin Fouse has found with ClubReady. Starting with the platform in 2005, he's seen continued growth. 

An article in Athletech News covered his success. "That's why I've stuck with them (ClubReady) for 18 years," Fouse says. "No one else does what they do." 

When four consecutive software providers continuously overpromised and underdelivered, O’Neill was burned out on finding a company that mirrored his own ideals, but not willing to settle. When an employee at one of his locations mentioned he should check out ClubReady, O’Neill was intrigued – and then impressed by the way ClubReady handled his questions. 

Access the whole case study and watch the video to hear more about Zivel’s goals, their transition to ClubReady, and Dr. O’Neill’s intriguing 1% philosophy.
