Officially launched my Soft Opening Promo -- sign up for 2 months and get the first month at 50% off. That's a pretty damn good deal if you ask me but maybe I'm biased.
One week till I start accepting clients to train at Empowered which means the renovations have to get done asap, equipment better be delivered and installed, and I have to get my schedule in order with my current clients, Lil' Sistas and of course my own training.
So far my deliveries have been arriving safe and sound. Only had 2 problems with equipment bought online -- my kettlebells and a workout bench. Two of the kettlebells don't actually sit flat on the floor and some of the numbers are yellowish when they should be yellow. I think the sun discoloured them. As for the bench, it was advertised as white and black. It arrived yesterday orange and grey. It was a total what-the-fudge moment where I could have spat fire, seriously. My gym has bamboo wood floor and the colour scheme is white, black and silver/chrome. I specifically bought items that fit this colour scheme and what I don't want are random colours, especially if they're bright.
The orange and grey bench, it definitely has to go.
Sending it back means also sending back the bosu ball that came with it and I purposely bought that Bosu ball because it was a combo deal. I've already waited a few weeks for it all to arrive. This is ridiculous.
There's still a million zillion things to do and having to tell people like suppliers to do their job properly isn't what I have time for right now. It's incredibly frustrating. I'm trying so hard to do my job and do my job at the best of my knowledge but some people, I don't know. I don't know how they can take their pay check with an honest heart. I don't even get a pay check right now. All my money goes into building Empowered.
This week's mission: find a repair person that isn't going to give me "white girl prices".
