With many industries now ‘online-reliant’ it is no wonder that the Health and Fitness industry have made significant enquiries into Metaforce’s Timekeeper product over the last twelve months.
Recent figures show that over £30bn was spent online last year and that 22m consumers in the UK now shop online. With these figures in mind, it was only logical that the industry moved into the online arena with a sense of optimism.
Greg Smith, Director of Aegis in London said of Timekeeper: “Allowing my Trainers to book online has generated more business and slashed my administration overheads.”
Timekeeper allows both the member and club to book any type of session or class online ‘real-time’, whilst offering the opportunity to pay for the session at the time of booking, modify at a later date or cancel entirely. Employee profiles and Facebook-style walls can also be included to add a more personable approach to the end-user where applicable.
Alongside the standard booking system, Timekeeper provides an invoicing system that automatically calculates the amount owed by each therapist, trainer or freelance instructor thus reducing considerable administration and cost.
Trevor Brennan, Sales Director for Metaforce said: “Timekeeper delivers functions not seen in other online systems throughout the market, such as ‘Airline-Style’ pricing, configurable timeslots, data-capture, dynamic allocation and we’ve also just added the option to include exercise-readiness-questionnaires. This has seen our clients being able to have immediate and available information on all new members and clients before they even walk through the door.

Membership sales have been included to numerous projects and our clients have seen a significant increase in their monthly sales as prospects opt towards purchasing their membership online without direct sales pressure.

Our programmers lead the world in their development of Timekeeper and this has allowed us to keep our fees low-cost and appealing to both the large chains as well as the single operator.”
