The Founders of 9Round Fitness, Shannon “the Cannon” & Heather Hudson

Emerging, Franchising Ryan Hicks Sep 24, 2019

This episode marked the start of week 3 of the summer podcast tour, and it was fun to be joined by the Founders of 9Round, Shannon “the cannon” and Heather Hudson.

In this episode we learn about the roots of 9Round, and discuss how they went from Zero to 100 locations, then WAY beyond. In Fact, Shannon has a book with that title: Zero to 100: The Blood, Sweat, and Tears of Building a Fitness Chain from Idea to 100 Locations. You can grab it here: https://www.amazon.com/Zero-100-Building-Fitness-Locations/dp/149176547X

As always, we also asked about their processes, how they differentiate and create culture, and how they leverage MODRN technology to gain an edge.
