Suggestions ‘box’

6.12.2012

Hey everyone! I wanted to drop a quick line to everyone and talk about a couple of things real quick:

First of all, I want to take the time to thank each and every one of you; not only for your business, which allows me to do what I love for a living, but also for all of your efforts you put in each and every time you’re in the box. Progress is always being made, walls are being torn down, and we’re all striving to be better each and every day. The dedication to your attendance and consistent drive during the workouts is motivating to say the least. I feel a huge sense of accomplishment after every class I coach, and I hope you all feel as good about yourselves as you deserve every time you walk out!

In the handful of months we’ve opened, we’ve grown exponentially, and I couldn’t be happier about that. We’ve done our best to adapt to growing class sizes and longer days, and we hope that our efforts have been satisfactory to all of our athletes here. Mike and I are constantly bouncing ideas off of each other as to how to make what we do better, and a lot of our ‘free’ time is spent talking with other box owners and checking out what’s going on in the rest of the world’s CrossFit communities. If you’re not growing, you’re dying, and owning a CrossFit gym is no exception.

With that point made, I want your input! If there’s something you do/don’t like about what we do, or if you have a suggestion as to how to make the box better, whether it be our coaching styles, techniques, attitudes, language (good luck getting me to not swear, by the way, cuz it’s not going to happen!), or if you just want to tell us that we suck or are ugly, I want there to be a way for you to anonymously submit comments and suggestions to us in case you’re not comfortable telling us in person. I know, trust me; Mike is a scary person. I remember a time from my youth when he made me chug a margarita bong. Getting on your knees in front of Mike is an experience nobody should have to suffer through. I still can’t eat those tiny vienna sausages without getting the chills…but I digress. Here’s how this will work: Go to the ‘Give us a shout!‘ tab, and fill out the form with whatever comment or suggestion you want us to see. Then, fill out your name and email info with BS: ie: John Doe, etc etc. Your comment will get delivered to my inbox and I’ll have no idea who sent it. Easy enough, right?  It’s either that, or you have to tell us in person!  🙂

Keep in mind, you can also just tell us how awesome we are at everything, but then I’d know you were lying.

I look forward to hearing your (constructive?) criticism! Thanks for your time–see you at the box!
