#17-HALO Talks Fast Break: From Boutique to Big Box-Jay Shoates Shares Operational and Community Insights

In this Fast Break, HALO sector veteran Jay Shoates put forward some powerful ideas on building fitness businesses that serve both professionals and the local community, as well as the importance of always learning and adapting.

Some key takeaways:

• Agility in Business: The HALO sector isn't one-size-fits-all. Jay emphasized the importance of being agile, exploring different roles from facility operations to consulting to ensure full utilization and holistic contribution to the industry.
  
  
• Community Connection: Success isn't defined by facility size, but by the value you provide and your connection to the community. As Jay puts it, "You have to be in some form a servant of your community in order for your community to come service you."
  
  
• Consistency and Lifelong Learning: Whether managing a boutique gym or expanding to a 30,000 square foot facility, consistent service and a commitment to ongoing learning (Jay is still eager for more with the HALO Academy!) remain the foundation for sustainable growth.

If you're in the HALO space, these are words to live by . . . and build by!
