World’s Largest In-Home Fitness Franchise Flexes Strength of its Leadership Team while Prioritizing Brand Performance & Nationwide Development.

MELVILLE, N.Y. — GYMGUYZ, the largest in-home and on-site personal training company in the world, has appointed Chief Marketing Officer Phil Brojan as President of the company. His deeply rooted passion and understanding of leadership and innovation has allowed GYMGUYZ to deliver results, profitability, and growth for its franchisees and stakeholders.

As Chief Marketing Officer for GYMGUYZ, Brojan has played a significant role in helping raise brand awareness as GYMGUYZ expanded to 18 new territories over the last year. This is credited to assembling a talented team, implementing new marketing strategies and building an aggressive franchise development plan that is poised to deliver exponential growth. GYMGUYZ aims to award another 75 territories by the end of 2023.

In addition to his former role as Chief Marketing Officer, Brojan has been a multi-unit franchise owner of GYMGUYZ since 2018, offering individualized one-on-one workouts, group instruction, and corporate fitness throughout the Northern New Jersey/Greater Morris County area.

Brojan has an impressive resume with 30 years of experience in developing growth and marketing strategies for many of the world’s leading brands, including 15 years at travel and hospitality behemoth Wyndham Worldwide (now Travel & Leisure Co.).

I look forward to continuing to seek out innovative ways to support our franchisees and grow their revenues and profitability.

Leading Massage and Facial Spa Franchise Invests Further in Skincare Innovations Based on Growing Market and Customer Demand.

PHILADELPHIA — Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa, the nation’s leading luxury massage and facial spa franchise, announced today it’s betting big on facial and skincare innovations to grow the brand and its range of services. Nearly 40% of services provided at the spa’s more than 550 locations nationwide are facial treatments, and there’s no sign of slowing down. In 2022, Hand & Stone performed more than 1.6 million facials, generating $211 million for the brand – 30% increase year-over-year.

As the demand for Hand & Stone facials grow, the brand has continued to invest in an already successful sector of their business. Contributing to their astounding skincare revenue, Hand & Stone implemented an aggressive growth strategy that set them apart from other spas, which included:

Establishing long-term partnerships with leading skincare brands including Dermalogica and ClarityRX.
Introducing innovative skincare technology options for facials like Dermalogica’s ProPen services (Luminfusion and Nanoinfusion), LED Light Therapy, NuFACE, DiamondGlow, and Cryoskin.
Rebranding its facial service menu to align with Dermalogica’s pro treatment menu, a change that replaced previous legacy service names such as the Brightening, Detox, and Rejuvenating Facials. The rebranding aims to attract Dermalogica ‘skinthusiasts’ to Hand & Stone.

“We’re no strangers to skincare here at Hand & Stone, and we’re thrilled that our aggressive approach to offering innovative skin treatments to our customers is working,” said Lisa Rossmann, Senior Vice President, Service & Product. “Not only are we attracting more and more facial only customers, but the majority are also excited to elevate their treatment with targeted enhancements with device technology, such as a DiamondGlow or LED light therapy enhancement, which each accounted for 17% of all facial services last year. We’ve had great success over the years convincing our base of massage consumers to try and fall in love with a facial, and now nearly half of our member base is using their monthly service for both massage and facial services. We’re excited to continue evolving our offerings to attract more skincare-centric consumers and meet a higher demand.”

As Hand & Stone looks ahead, the brand is setting its sights high and has plans to introduce new brands and technologies to appeal to a wider audience. Through the rest of 2023, the brand will:

Launch a collection of IMAGE Skincare products and services, both in the organic and medical grade segments for those looking for more natural or doctor-developed options.
Target a younger audience by offering budget-friendly facial enhancements by adding ultrasonic, gua sha stone and ice globe tools to the menu.
Re-introduce a customer-favorite collection with a whole new look, adding to its repertoire of existing collections for customers of all ages.

Zoom Room CFO and Seasoned Venture Capitalist Becomes Largest Multi-Unit Franchise Owner in Company’s 14-Year History

Tatyana Stemkovski2023-06-07T10:01:24-04:00June 7th, 2023|Tags: dog training classes, indoor dog training gym, socialization events and retail products, Zoom Room|

Ripe Opportunity For 10-Unit Expansion in South Florida Proves Salient for Prospective Franchisees.

LOS ANGELES — Zoom Room, the venture-backed, revolutionary indoor dog training gym, announced today the largest multi-unit deal since the company’s inception in 2009, closing a 10-unit franchise agreement with its very own Director and CFO, Anthony Polazzi. The deal will create a major footprint for Zoom Room within the Southeast and fuel tremendous expansion for the company, beyond the quadruple-unit growth reported at the onset of 2023.

The global pet services market size was valued at $24.92 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 9.21% from 2023 to 2030 according to Grand View Research. Despite inflation and Americans cutting back on discretionary spending they have maintained or even increased their expenditures on their pets. When it comes to pet care 68% spent more in February 2023 vs. January 2022 according to the US Pet Market Outlook Report. Projected to reach over 200 units in the next year, Zoom Room continues to be a brand to watch within the category.

Beyond serving as Zoom Room’s Director and CFO, Polazzi is also the Founder and President of AP Franchised Concepts, an investment firm focused on growing emerging multi-unit franchises with a successful track record across a variety of industries. APFC invested in Zoom Room back in 2017 and remains a minority company owner. Polazzi’s deep knowledge of Zoom Room and the factors that drive success in the system, coupled with over 20 years of experience in acquiring and advising businesses, will guide his team to build out the initial locations in the South Florida market. As a longstanding integrated partner of the business and now the largest multi-unit franchisee at Zoom Room, Polazzi recognizes the efficacy of Zoom Room’s business model and the lucrative opportunity it presents franchisees for long-term gains. With an impressive growth trajectory, Zoom Room attracts those looking to scale as business owners though no previous experience in dog training is required.

“Dog training where pet parents are actively engaged during the sessions is not as well-known in the pet services industry as daycare or grooming, yet the economics of the Zoom Room business model are more attractive and the opportunity for growth is much greater,” said Anthony Polazzi, Director and CFO of Zoom Room and Founder and President of APFC. “As the pet industry overall continues to boom, on top of the community-driven values consumers come to expect from pet brands, I expect investors in other states will sense the urgency to develop multiple Zoom Room units in key regions across the country, like what we’re doing in Florida. To foster future multi-unit owners, we’re bringing on a seasoned multi-unit operations specialist to oversee and streamline this process. Our growth is only going to continue to explode as the Zoom Room approach becomes the new standard in dog training and socialization.”

Zoom Room continues to align itself with those who are interested in expanding and investing in the dog training business. The company pioneered a new style of training and emphasizes socialization, positive reinforcement, human education and the value of interactive learning, to deepen the bond between dogs and their companions Most recently, the company more than tripled its presence across the U.S., from eight states in 2020 to 30 states, and quadrupled its unit size in a two-year timeframe.

“Anthony and I have cultivated a remarkable partnership, diligently working to expand Zoom Room over the past six years. He has been an invaluable collaborator, closely attuned to the intricacies of our business. Whether it be his keen insights into Zoom Room or his exceptional track record in developing multi-unit operations, his unwavering commitment serves as the ultimate affirmation of Zoom Room’s solid foundation,” stated Mark Van Wye, CEO of Zoom Room. “Witnessing Anthony’s journey come full circle, now emerging as the foremost multi-unit franchisee, is truly exhilarating. Our unique and rapidly growing concept, coupled with the opportunity to secure exclusive territories, makes this the ideal moment to embark on the franchisee path with Zoom Room—owning entire territories or metropolitan areas as a franchisee developer.”

At the close of 2022, Zoom Room had nearly eight as many multi-unit developers as there were in 2020. This latest multi-unit deal further proves the fruitful path ahead of Zoom Room and is reflective of the opportunity the business presents prospective franchisees.

Jennifer Aniston Joins Leading Functional Fitness Brand, Pvolve

Tatyana Stemkovski2023-06-06T11:18:26-04:00June 6th, 2023|Tags: fitness company, functional movement, proprietary equipment, Pvolve|

Pvolve Member, Aniston Will Advise on Company’s Marketing, Product, and Programming Strategies to Help Supercharge Growth.

NEW YORK — Pvolve, an omni-channel functional fitness company, today announced a new partnership with world-renowned actress, producer and director, Jennifer Aniston. As a fan and member of Pvolve, Aniston is now joining the rapidly growing fitness brand to help lead the company into its next chapter. She will be focused on key areas of the business such as product development, marketing, and programming strategy, while also starring in future ad campaigns to bring more awareness to the emerging brand.

Aniston’s love for Pvolve began when she was introduced to the innovative method in 2021. “In 2021 I had a really bad back injury, and I don’t feel like myself when I’m not able to work out,” says Aniston. “I have a friend who had already been doing Pvolve and not only did I notice her complete transformation – physically and in her energy level – but she also explained that Pvolve’s functional fitness method respects where your body is at and allows you to work around your current limitations, so you don’t have to sit on the bench and wait for full recovery. I ordered the equipment and started streaming the workouts at home and instantly fell in love with the program and its results. Then, once I was back to full strength, I saw how broad the range of workout options are, and I was hooked. It’s completely different from anything I’d tried before and that’s what made me want to get involved with the company.”

Pvolve pairs functional movement with resistance-based equipment to sculpt, strengthen and restore the body. Because the method integrates all ranges of motion – side-to-side, front-to-back, and rotational – it activates major and surrounding muscle groups to enhance the physique, while improving strength, mobility, and stability.

“I was blown away when I found out that Jennifer Aniston was a secret streamer and doing the workouts at home,” says Rachel Katzman, Founder of Pvolve. “The fact that someone so advanced in her fitness journey and with access to a world of options, fell in love with the Method after experiencing its benefits, is a dream come true.”

Pvolve was born out of Rachel Katzman’s own personal search for a fitness approach that would respect the body’s holistic needs – a method that makes you look and feel great, all at the same time. As a fitness enthusiast with scoliosis, Katzman wanted a workout that would challenge her and give her the aesthetic results, but without aggravating her body’s sensitivities.

Over the last year, in addition to streaming classes from her home, Aniston has added in-person training with Pvolve Director of Training and Head Trainer, Dani Coleman.

During their sessions, Dani incorporates Pvolve’s patented equipment, like the P.ball, P.band and P.3 Trainer along with additional Aniston favorites like the Precision Mat, ankle bands and gliders. Pvolve members can take classes with Aniston’s Pvolve trainer online and in the LA studio, as well as check out her favorite on-demand workouts on Pvolve.com via a collection called “Jen’s Picks.”

To get started with the Pvolve Method, consumers can purchase the brand’s Signature Bundle which includes three pieces of equipment and one month of free streaming. Those looking to go all-in on the complete Pvolve experience can buy the Total Transformation Bundle which features 13 pieces of strength training and restorative equipment and unlocks one year of free streaming. Both bundles are available at www.pvolve.com and come with a complimentary one-on-one trainer consultation, plus a 30-day home trial which allows you to return the items hassle free if you don’t love them.

“I especially love movements that work my core and arms, and the P.band, P.ball and gliders are really great for that, plus they’re easy to pack when I travel,” adds Aniston. “I also use the Precision Mat because it visually helps guide you through the movements.”

Among the many things that make Pvolve distinctive in addition to the movements and equipment, is its Clinical Advisory Board comprised of medical doctors and experts in women’s health, kinesiology, biomechanics, physical therapy, and other disciplines. Along with the advisory board, Pvolve is actively engaged in clinical studies that help validate the efficacy of the workouts and to deliver insights used to continually improve upon the Method. The Clinical Advisory Board is also tapped to help Pvolve develop content that supports women throughout various life stages such as pre-and-post natal and menopause.

Pvolve members have the benefit of convenience and flexibility when it comes to working out. With more than 1,000 classes on its streaming platform, along with two-way, live virtual studio classes, Pvolve is always available at your fingertips. In addition to digital programming, Pvolve also has physical studio locations, including franchises, in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Diego, with more franchise studios opening across the US and Canada in 2023.

Visit pvolve.com to learn about Jennifer Aniston’s favorite classes and equipment and sign-up to get a complimentary one-on-one trainer consultation to support your fitness goals. You can also find Pvolve on Instagram.

About Pvolve

Pvolve, or Personal Evolution, is an innovative fitness company that pairs functional movement with resistance-based equipment to sculpt, tone, strengthen and restore the body while also enhancing mobility, and stability. Rooted in expertise and guided by its Clinical Advisory Board, Pvolve uses low-impact movement and patented equipment to deliver a signature Method that helps you break a sweat, but not your body. Through its hybrid fitness model, Pvolve can be experienced via a streaming membership which offers live and on-demand classes on Pvolve.com and on the Pvolve App, and via physical studio locations available in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Diego, with more franchises opening soon.

TAMPA BAY, Fla. — Capital Tacos, one of the nation’s most beloved Tex-Mex franchise brands, has announced a month-long campaign in partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation® running from June 5^th to July 5^th. During that window, Capital Tacos locations across Tampa and Orlando will introduce the Make-A-Wish Mac N Queso Kids Meal to the menu and donate 100% of the profits to support the wish-making efforts of the foundation.

“To be able to take part in such a meaningful, life-changing endeavor has been beyond rewarding for everyone here at Capital Tacos,” said Josh Luger, Co-Founder of Capital Tacos. “It’s a powerful reminder and reinforcement of our daily mission: to be an asset to the communities we serve, to be a family-friendly destination, and to drive connectivity through our passion for food and flavor.”

At the heart of this partnership is a Wish Kid – ‘Chef’ Diego’ – who, after successfully undergoing treatment for a brain tumor, expressed his dream to meet one of America’s most recognizable and influential celebrity chefs. A wish that the Make-A-Wish team is gearing up to bring to fruition, and that compelled Capital Tacos to invite him to go behind-the-scenes with their culinary crew to craft the campaign’s menu special.

“We are delighted to partner with Capital Tacos to bring hope, strength, and joy to local children battling critical illnesses. Not only did they provide joy for wish kid Diego as he worked with the Capital Tacos team to create the Make-A-Wish Mac N Queso Kids Meal, but sales of that meal will go a long way in granting wishes like Diego’s. Thank you, Capital Tacos, for your incredible support.” – Anne Cuba, President & CEO of Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida.

The Make-A-Wish Mac N Queso Kids Meal features a never-before-seen Tex-Mex take on Mac N Cheese: with Capital Tacos signature queso leading a cheesy mix alongside freshly boiled noodles. Like all Capital Tacos kids’ meals, it will also come with a choice of side – hand-cut chips or hand-spiced fries – as well as mini churros with whipped cream for dessert and a fountain drink of choice.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Island Fin Poké Co., America’s best poké restaurant that specializes in Hawaiian-style poké bowls, is making a big splash with the launch of its first national quality TV commercial, created by its agency of record, San Diego-based InnoVision Marketing Group. The 30-second commercial, which features the restaurant’s fresh, healthy and delicious poké bowls, has debuted on digital streaming services, targeting a broad audience of food lovers and health enthusiasts. To view the 30-second commercial, click here.

InnoVision Marketing Group, a bilingual full-service marketing agency, concepted and created the colorful commercial featuring Island Fin’s endless combinations of deliciously healthy poké. The agency’s creative team worked closely with Island Fin Poké Co. to truly capture the essence of the brand. The creative strategy is to remove the fear associated with trying poké for the first time, educating first-time guests that poké can be made with any protein, chicken, fish or tofu, the delicious flavors that Island Fin Poké Co. offers and that with so many combinations on delicious bowls, you are all but guaranteed to find several that guests will love.

“Island Fin Poké Co. is so delicious, colorful and our creative strategy behind this commercial reflects just that,” said Giselle Campos, Sr. Vice President / Sr. Creative Director. “It features stunning images of Island Fin’s colorful poké bowls and is accompanied by upbeat music with a voiceover that highlights the restaurant’s commitment to quality and freshness. It poses the question of what makes a meal incredible, eventually leading to how Island Fin’s is incredible and how the bold and exotic flavors are added in to make the meal exciting, yet approachable, while showcasing its endless combinations of flavors.”

The flavor variations surprise even the most hesitant guests whenever they try Island Fin for the very first time. In fact, franchisees have experienced almost a one hundred percent sales conversion after guests are offered to sample the poké, because the experience is so surprisingly delightful. This inspired the brand to implement their “One Bite and You’ll Be Hooked” campaign back in December, where new guests can try a free two-ounce sample of one their popular flavor combinations. To this day, this campaign is still extremely successful in changing the perception of poké and turning skeptics into loyal guests.

“We’re so elated to unveil our very first national quality commercial and present our brand on an even wider scale through digital TV,” said Mark Setterington, CEO and founder of Island Fin Poké Co. “Our poké bowls are made with only the freshest ingredients and are a healthy and delicious option. This commercial captures the true meaning of one bite and you’ll be hooked, and we can’t wait for the world to see it.”

Island Fin Poké Co. recently announced InnoVision Marketing Group as its agency of record to elevate the brand and expand the franchise. The agency knows the importance of strategy and creativity, along with the importance of producing extraordinary results and memorable advertising. InnoVision has a world-class service model, 24/7 accessibility and offers everything under the marketing umbrella in-house.
