    Episode #519: BrainLit and Healthy Indoor Environments-Insights from Kyle Harris on Light Science
    2024/09/04
    In today's episode, we dive into (a relatively new field in the US) the fascinating world of 'healthy/performance lighting' with Kyle Harris. Join host Pete Moore as they explore Brainlit technology, a Swedish company that creates healthier indoor environments by mimicking the natural spectrum of sunlight through advanced LED modulation. Kyle and Pete discuss expanding partnerships with major sports teams like the Sacramento Kings, tackling market challenges, and the impressive patent portfolio that underpins Brainlit's revolutionary approach. We'll also touch on the technology's journey into various markets, the quantifiable benefits for athlete performance and overall wellness, and the future-proof nature of lighting solutions making waves in the US sports sector. Inspired by Tord Wengren, one of the team behind behind Bluetooth and a platform expert from companies like Samsung and Huawei, Brainlet aims to revolutionize indoor lighting. Under Kyle’s influence, the company focuses on modulating and controlling LED lights to replicate the perfect sunlight spectrum indoors. This innovative approach not only creates healthier work and living environments but also aligns with the natural ways in which sunlight energizes and keeps people focused, reminiscent of the benefits our ancestors experienced. This technology has been used in Europe for quite a while and has recently starting gaining traction in the states. Harris states, "Companies that we work with, the professional teams especially, tell their players, 'We have installed for your benefit lights that make you recover better, sleep better, that can energize you before a game and decompress you post game.' I would say, conservatively, there's a 10 year difference in the understanding of light tech and health and wellness between Europe and the US to some extent, and how they look at light. Because of we come out of the Nordics, there's a much better understanding of the power of light." Key themes discussed Entering new markets and educating resistant leaders.Exercise benefits, lighting impact on athletes, ROI.Light system enhances health, wellness in various environments.Future-proof design allows for continuous evolution.Challenges in light tech and market traction.Investment in new sports facilities for next generation.Custom health solutions for optimal indoor environment. A few key takeaways: Brainlit Technology and Its Benefits: Brainlit specializes in creating healthy indoor environments by modulating LED light to mimic the natural sunlight spectrum. This tech offers significant health benefits including improved productivity, better sleep patterns, and reduced sick days. Strategic Partnerships in Sports: Brainlit has formed partnerships with major sports organizations, including the Sacramento Kings and others. These collaborations demonstrate the effectiveness of their technology in enhancing athletes' performance and overall wellness, further expanding their reach to the English Premier League and other major leagues. Market Education and Challenges: One of the prominent challenges discussed is the necessity of educating architects, construction teams, and potential clients about the benefits of healthy lighting. Communication and timely implementation remain key barriers, especially in new builds and the fragmented school district market. Holistic and Future-Proof Solutions: Brainlit offers versatile and adaptive lighting systems that cater to specific facility needs, such as providing optimized lighting during unconventional hours and for jet lag mitigation. Their solutions are designed to be future-proof, with remote accessibility management to allow for ongoing upgrades. Enterprise and Support Staff Focus: Beyond targeting athletes, Brainlit is emphasizing an enterprise solution that supports not only players but also coaches and support staff. This broader approach helps create a holistic wellness environment for everyone involved, and positions them as a comprehensive solution in various vertical markets including health clubs, sports, and studio markets.

  • Episode #518: Beyond the Gym-Exploring Cities with Michael Riordan's City Fit Tours

    Episode #518: Beyond the Gym-Exploring Cities with Michael Riordan's City Fit Tours
    2024/08/27

    Michael Riordan, a fellow New Yorker and entrepreneur, shares his journey in building a unique fitness tourism business. We'll dive into how his personal experience and professional background as a personal trainer inspired him to create immersive, wellness-focused tours for travelers and business people visiting the city.

    While in Hawaii, he was faced with the decision of either running on a treadmill or exploring outdoors, he chose the latter and embarked on a beach run that turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences of his life. This moment of clarity inspired him to integrate more local and immersive activities into his routine.

    Back in his professional life, he noticed a recurring theme among his clients, who often traveled to fun destinations for work but rarely got to experience the local culture. Michael became a staunch advocate for blending fitness with business and/or adventure travel, encouraging clients to explore and enjoy their surroundings, no matter where their travels took them.

    Riordan states, "The identity of the the Fit Tours business is that we are actually a tour company with a fitness twist as opposed to a fitness company with a tour twist."

    Key themes discussed

    • Embrace local experiences & keep up your fitness while traveling for work.
    • Fit Tours offers a combination of unique fitness and city exploration.
    • Strategic partnerships and filling classes for entrepreneurs.
    • Balancing cost and sustainability for fitness tours.
    • Recruited dynamic, engaging tour guides for events.
    • Competitor collaboration led to successful new business entity.

    A few key takeaways:

    1. Innovative Business Concept: Riordan identified a niche in the market by providing fitness-focused tours for travelers. This stemmed from his own experiences and frustrations with traditional gym routines while traveling.

    2. Target Audience and Value Proposition: The primary target audience includes both leisure and business travelers who want to maintain their fitness routines while also experiencing local sights and culture. This dual-purpose offering provides an immersive wellness experience unique to each city.

    3. Effective Team Building: Riordan found success by hiring actors and performers as tour guides. These individuals not only had the fitness focus he needed but also brought an energetic and engaging dynamic to the tours, enhancing the overall experience for guests.

    4. Adapting and Expanding: During the pandemic, Riordan expanded to Chicago by acquiring a local running tour company at no cost, demonstrating resourcefulness and strategic growth. This move was facilitated by his connection with the former owner's similar vision and goals.

    5. Merging for Better Outcomes: By merging Fit Tours NYC with City Running Tours to form City Fit Tours, Riordan and his partner combined their strengths and resources. This allowed them to share the workload more effectively, with Riordan focusing on business development and his partner on operations.

  • Episode #517: Chris Craytor on Innovative Strategies for Health Club Growth and Member Retention

    Episode #517: Chris Craytor on Innovative Strategies for Health Club Growth and Member Retention
    2024/08/20
    Chris Craytor took on a significant challenge when joining the board of IHRSA, the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association. At a time when raising funds was particularly difficult, Craytor played a key role in steering the organization towards a stronger focus on advocacy, education, and research. With the strategic hire of Liz Clark as CEO, Craytor helped pivot IHRSA—now known as the Health and Fitness Association—towards these critical areas. This shift was underscored by the COVID pandemic, which signifcantly heightened awareness among club operators about the importance of advocacy. Craytor envisions increased efforts to influence state-level legislation, recognizing that many crucial battles for the industry are won and lost at the local level. Chris and host Pete Moore discuss a range of topics crucial to the fitness industry, including managing member relationships, especially within the Medicare Advantage community, and the critical role of customer retention. Chris shares his innovative approach to business by addressing personal and professional challenges and emphasizes the significance of strong leadership. They also explore the ever-evolving landscape of health insurance, exercise and its impact on long-term health, and the importance of preventative care covered by groups like Medicare and Medicaid. Chris also highlights the rapid growth in insurance-based memberships and the challenges and solutions provided by Welld Health, a leading software platform connecting health clubs to healthcare payers. Key themes discussed Discussing importance of active voter participation and issues.ACAC founded with inclusive, community-focused approach.Layering AI in medical data for reimbursement.Software companies require 5-year SaaS agreements.States for ACAC business expansion in 36 months.Clean database, streamline member files, reduce rejection.Popular programs offer competitive advantages in business. A few key takeaways: 1. Medicare Advantage Programs and Revenue Potential: Health clubs can significantly benefit by targeting the Medicare Advantage community. Large chains have the potential to generate millions of dollars monthly through these programs. 2. Customer Retention and Leadership: Effective customer retention efforts are crucial for clubs. Finding the right individual within the club to manage these efforts can make a significant difference. The role of a Chief Revenue Officer was highlighted as potentially beneficial for improving accounting processes and overall efficiency. 3. ACAC's Inclusive and Comprehensive Approach: Chris shared insights into ACAC Fitness and Wellness, which operates on a larger format with high-end amenities. Their approach to inclusiveness, medical programs, physician referrals, and partnerships with doctors and hospitals sets them apart. The emphasis on tracking member outcomes and offering first-class service above their middle-market price point further highlights their differentiation. 4. Health and Fitness Advocacy: The rebranding of IHRSA as the Health and Fitness Association underscores a new focus on political advocacy, education, and research. Project 435, for example, aims to have a club captain advocating for health clubs in each of the 435 congressional districts, showcasing the importance of grassroots advocacy within the sector. 5. Challenges and Benefits of Health Insurance Integration: The podcast also shed light on the integration of health insurance with fitness clubs, particularly the challenges around eligibility verification, member management, and reconciliation. Software platforms like Welld Health play a critical role in reducing rejection rates and bad data, ultimately saving significant revenue for clubs. The ability to run long-term medical programs via partnerships with YMCA's and medical centers further illustrates the evolving landscape of preventative healthcare coverage.
