Resources for gym owners
Practical notes from building Metric for Sri Lankan gyms. Each one explains the reasoning behind a decision — when to remind members, how to measure revenue — so it is useful whichever system you run.
Guides
When to Send Gym Membership Renewal Reminders
A renewal reminder schedule by plan length: why monthly members need fewer messages than annual ones, what each SMS should say, and what follows the due date.
Overdue Gym Members: When to Expire or Cancel
When an unpaid gym membership should expire, how long to wait before cancelling it, and what to do when a member pays late — the rules Metric runs on.
Choosing Gym Management Software in Sri Lanka
What to check before choosing gym software in Sri Lanka: rupee prices, desk payments, SMS, door access and your members’ rights under the PDPA.
Excel and WhatsApp vs Gym Management Software
What a spreadsheet and WhatsApp do well for a gym, where they break, what gym software changes, and why Metric sends SMS rather than WhatsApp.
How to Move Your Gym's Members into Software
Moving members off a register book or spreadsheet: what to collect, which date to enter, what members receive by SMS, and letting new members register by QR.
Billed vs Collected: Measuring Gym Revenue
Why dividing annual plans by twelve misleads, how to calculate what members owe this month, and how to read your collection rate.
Fitness Empire, Wattala: 7 Months on Metric
How a Wattala gym runs 134 active members on Metric: the texts it no longer sends by hand, the payments it records, and when its members renew.
