Peak Hours Turn Your Front Desk Into a Bottleneck-9c63ed

January Rush Overwhelms Your Single Front Desk Person

New Year brings sign-up waves. Your receptionist explains membership tiers while three calls pile up. Walk-ins need tours. Members have questions. Phones ring endlessly. Some get busy signals. Others hang up after six rings. Your busiest revenue season becomes your biggest bottleneck—you can’t answer everyone.

Staff Wastes Hours Answering the Same Questions Daily

Staff Wastes Hours Answering the Same Questions Daily

“What are membership prices?” “Do you have a pool?” “What classes?” “What time do you open?” Your front desk answers these times daily while helping members in person. Hours vanish on repetitive questions instead of giving tours, selling personal training, and serving existing members. This prevents revenue-generating activities.
