Client Overview

Business: Northern Strength CrossFit
Location: Edmonton, AB
Type: CrossFit affiliate box
Programming: WODs, Olympic lifting, competitions

The Challenge

Jake Morrison's box had passionate members but struggled to grow past 80 athletes. On-ramp completion was low. Members burned out after 6 months. In-house competitions had empty spots. Referrals happened randomly.

The Solution

We implemented on-ramp nurture sequences, PR celebration automation, burnout prevention with at-risk detection, competition promotion campaigns, and a structured referral program with tracking.

The Results

Trial-to-membership conversion hit 71%. Twelve-month retention reached 93%. Competition revenue grew 2.8x. Referral rate hit 47%. The box now has over 150 active members.

"The on-ramp sequences made such a difference. New members feel supported from day one. They complete fundamentals and stick around because they feel part of the community before they even start regular classes."

— Jake Morrison, Owner
