Capture every new lead, qualify them automatically, and route to the right person — no manual sorting.
A boutique studio runs lead gen across five channels — ClassPass, Instagram and Facebook ads, Google, a website "free week" form, and walk-ins — and most of it funnels into one overworked front desk or the owner's personal DMs. Leads sit for hours, the prospect books a competitor's intro class, and the ad spend still posts. Speed-to-lead is brutal in fitness: a prospect who gets a response in 5 minutes is far more likely to book a trial than one contacted an hour later. Lead intake automation captures every channel into one pipeline, auto-qualifies the lead (goal, schedule, beginner vs. experienced, membership vs. drop-in), and routes it to the right coach or sales staffer with an instant SMS. For multi-location studios it also kills the "I thought the other location had that lead" leak.
A 4-location Pilates studio in Denver unified ClassPass, Meta ads, and their web form into one flow with auto-SMS in under 3 minutes; trial bookings rose 40% and their cost per acquired member dropped 28%. A CrossFit box in Austin tags leads by goal — "lose weight" gets the intro-class track, "competitive" gets a coach call — and doubled trial show rates. A yoga studio in Brooklyn auto-routes ClassPass users who visit 3+ times into a "convert to member" sequence, turning drop-in traffic into recurring revenue.
Connect all lead sources (website form, Google Ads, Facebook Lead Ads, phone) into a single CRM — typically GHL or HubSpot.
When a lead comes in, automatically create a contact record, set the pipeline stage to 'New Lead', and tag by source.
Fire an automated SMS and/or email within 2 minutes: 'Thanks for reaching out! We received your inquiry and will be in touch shortly.'
Use an AI chatbot or SMS sequence to ask 2-3 qualifying questions: service needed, location/zip code, timeline, and budget range.
Based on service type, location, or lead score, automatically assign the contact to the correct salesperson or team member in your CRM.
Send a Slack message or email to the assigned rep with all lead details so they can follow up immediately.
