Gyms and fitness studios in London

What the phone looks like for a London gym

London and the wider Greater London has a population of around 9.7 million, built on professional services, hospitality and an enormous base of independent trades serving them. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a gym working across the City, Camden and Croydon most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.

A membership enquiry is worth hundreds a year and the caller joins whichever gym answered and booked them a look round.

Callwise answers on your own 020 number. Customers ring the number they already have, it is answered on the first ring by something that sounds like a person, and the job is booked into your diary before the caller has thought about trying anybody else.

Questions

London gyms ask us

Do we keep our 020 number?

Yes. Your existing 020 number stays exactly as it is and keeps ringing your phones. Calls only reach the assistant when nobody picks up, or at the hours you choose, so nothing about how London customers reach you changes.

Do you work with gyms outside London?

Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so London and everywhere across Greater London is covered the same way, along with the rest of the UK. The local part is your number and your customers, and both stay yours.

What happens in January?

Enquiries can triple for three weeks. Missing them is the difference between a good year and an ordinary one, because a member joining in January stays all year.

Can it book a tour?

Yes, straight into the diary, which converts far better than a call back two days later.

Will it handle cancellation calls?

It logs them to your process. Most gyms route those to a person, and it can do that too.

Ring it and ask what a London customer would ask. It is the same assistant your callers would get, so if it does not convince you on the phone it will not convince them either.
