So you\u2019ve probably faced these three major challenges we\u2019re about to cover. Don\u2019t worry\u2026our aim isn\u2019t to make you re-live the stress of dealing with these issues; it\u2019s to offer up solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Your entire business may be based in physicality, but by using IoT technology to bridge the physical world and the digital, you can give your operation an edge. And with a dedicated Radianse team to help run implementation and support, the whole process will be easier than you ever thought possible.<\/p>\n<p>And with that, let\u2019s dive in to how we can help.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The First Challenge: How to Not Sweat the Cleaning<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-04-1024x461-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-04-1024x461-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"461\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-04-1024x461-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-04-1024x461-1-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Like it or not, a key element of your business involves sweaty people getting their sweat all over pieces of equipment that they\u2019re sharing with other sweaty people. Maintaining cleanliness is always going to be an uphill battle, and in a world that has become hyper-aware of how germs spread from person to person, you simply can\u2019t afford to look like it\u2019s not one of your highest priorities.<\/p>\n<p>An IoT monitoring system can use active RFID tracking to provide you with full real-time club cleaning status. Sections of your club, laid out using your actual floorplan, can be color-coded as their cleaning<\/p>\n<p>status changes, and you can monitor the individual employee performing the cleaning to ensure they\u2019re following protocols. You can also utilize asset tracking tools \u2013\u00a0so you never lose a single mop or vacuum \u2013\u00a0and get alerts about paper towel, toilet paper, and trash levels.<\/p>\n<p>Your Radianse team can get you access to all these features and more\u2026and get them displayed on a large screen mounted in a centralized location, so you\u2019ll always have your finger on the pulse.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Second Challenge: How to Prevent Amenity Anarchy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-02-1024x461-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-02-1024x461-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"461\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-02-1024x461-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-02-1024x461-1-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s group fitness classes, tanning beds, or massages, you go above and beyond to provide your members with the amenities they need to be their best selves. But the more amenities you offer, the more logistics there are to manage. And if you\u2019re still using a clipboard to keep track of appointment sign-ups, you\u2019ve probably seen how quickly things can get messy. The last thing you need is for members\u2019 appointments to fall through the cracks or for critical waivers to not get signed.<\/p>\n<p>Enter IoT. Through an easy-to-use kiosk, a person can scan their member card for access, quickly schedule a class, tan, or massage, be prompted to fill out necessary forms and waivers, and then be on their way. It\u2019s all automated\u2026no spotter needed. Plus, if that person\u2019s membership level doesn\u2019t allow access to the amenity they want, the system can automatically upsell them on the higher level.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, all usage trends and demographic data can be captured by the system can be sent straight to you.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Third Challenge: How to Maximize Your Efficiency Gains<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Running any kind of business involves managing a lot of moving pieces, and a gym is no different. From cleanings, to walk-throughs, to security, you\u2019ll never be short on employee activities to monitor.<\/p>\n<p>Using RFID or non-RFID IoT solutions, you can automate employee schedules, get detailed reporting and history on what was done when and by whom, and easily identify bottlenecks or oversights. Managing security also gets easier with quick, reliable, real-tie rounds monitoring. All of this helps you identify issues within your operation and respond to them quickly, which keeps your business running efficiently.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-03-1024x461-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-03-1024x461-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"461\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-03-1024x461-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dev.hierarchy.agency\/radianse\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/RAD_Social_NativePhotos_11-17-21_EH-03-1024x461-1-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to see how adopting IoT technology can take huge weights off your shoulders, and Radianse makes it easy to get set up and reap the rewards for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you run a gym, there\u2019s no need to explain why it\u2019s a complex endeavor.
