HOTWORX congratulates franchisees, Tiffany and Joshua Heavner, who were awarded 3 franchise licenses in the Kansas City market and recently opened their Blue Springs, MO studio!
What originally motivated you to consider a business opportunity?
We strive to look for innovation in new business adventures. After hearing of HOTWORX in our area and having quite a few friends joining and enjoying the wonderful benefits, we felt that this was a new workout routine we could do with our busy lives. After discussing and talking about our schedules, I had mentioned to Josh that I just wished there was one closer to where we lived. His response was, "Well, open one yourself and put it where you want it." We then discussed the franchise opportunity and the rest is history.
What led you to explore franchising rather than an independent business?
We currently own multiple independent businesses. The franchise concept for us is a new endeavor and so far we are enjoying it very much. We love getting to see from the franchisee perspective and are looking forward to great things with HOTWORX. We love the intense level of organization and guidance.
What was your initial impression of your first HOTWORX session?
Our initial impression was honestly a little nervous, as we really didn't know what to expect. We spoke to numerous of our friends about it and ultimately enjoyed it. We are ready to experience sessions on a regular basis from a membership status and then look forward to operating our own studio.
How was your experience going through the HOTWORX Discovery Process?
The Discovery Process was very organized and informative. The timeline of weekly modules was helpful in digesting the information with lead time for question generation with Mandy, our recruiter who was absolutely AMAZING! The information provided really allows the potential franchisee to get a grasp of the concept, company structure, and goals of the franchise.
How would you describe your Orientation Day and meeting the HOTWORX Executive Team?
Orientation Day was great. We again, did not know what to expect. The overall atmosphere of the day was very welcoming and we truly felt like we were becoming part of a team. The resources, information, executive credentials in place properly for success can only lead to great things. Being business owners ourselves, we understand the level of work and dedication it takes to make a company successful and meeting the individuals that do that day in and day out for HOTWORX sealed the deal for us. We are grateful for the opportunity to join this wonderful company.

What are the top 3 reasons you chose to franchise with HOTWORX?
