Barry and Shay Kostabi of Fitcarma join the show to talk about what it really takes to build a meaningful, five-star fitness brand. At the centre of their work is helping operators find their “North Star” and use it to guide everything, from the member journey to how your team shows up every day.
The end result is a business and brand that stands out, knows what it stands for (and against), is more purposeful and — crucially, more profitable!
