More About Cut+Flow
The Challenge Before NetGym
Slack Overload :
Sub requests filled a busy Slack channel, creating nonstop noise with no way to ensure accountability.
Misused Staff Time:
A full-time employee was stuck monitoring Slack, a costly distraction from higher-value work like sales and community building.
Complex Instructor Needs:
Covering both yoga and Xformer classes required specialty matching that Slack couldn’t support.
Culture of Constant Interruptions:
Instructors and managers felt tethered to their phones, unable to fully disconnect and quietly working their way to burnout.
Professional Gap:
For a business built on a polished, business-forward mindset, patchwork systems eroded the consistency and confidence they wanted staff and members to feel.
Before NetGym we had full staff member devoted to subbing. It was really expensive and not sustainable. The future is much brighter with NetGym!
