"We want someone who's actually going to help fix it, not just write a report."— Susan Jansson, kickoff
Three findings, one pattern.
Pipedrive is paying off. Joe Genova closes consults at 40% — the industry average is 10%. The culture, the loyalty, the 25 years of mission — that part is real and rare.
38% of the problems are people, 39% are process, 23% are tools. This is an operating-model fix, not a tool fix.
$8,500/mo in Stripe collections stopped May 1 — no one filled out one form. 30% of January's promo never got a callback in time. 200 families sit on a swim waitlist — some for six years.
The opportunity matrix
19 opportunities, scored on impact × effort. Tap any Quick Win or Bigger Bet to see what's broken, what we'd do, and what it's worth.
Don't trust our assumptions. Use yours.
Every slider starts at our conservative default. Pull them down as far as you like — and watch what survives.
Two plays we deliberately left out. The assumptions are pre-pilot — excluded until the pilots prove them.
Formulas mirror the companion report §5. This calculator is directional — the written math governs.
The six rocks from your May 14 offsite — already on the plan.
Phase 1
Phase 2
Yours
You are not picking between our plan and your rocks. They are the same plan.
You decide at each gate.
Three paths. Same diagnosis. The difference is how much skin we both have in the game.
Bridge
$70K cash across Phases 1 + 2, then Tier 1 retainer from Month 7 — ~$8K/mo, range $5K–$10K by scope. You get the full roadmap value.
Build
$35K Phase 1 + 10% equity. We build your own club management software — the platform you've said you want. ExitLoop fills the CTO seat.
An ops + services business sells at ~3× earnings. Wrapped in proprietary software, ~10×. Same business, different multiple. Cash fallback: $150K–$200K, laddered by scope.
How the equity structure works
- Consult-for-equity with mutual due diligence — both sides check each other out before anything signs.
- Vesting tied to delivery. We earn it by shipping, not by signing.
- HealthSPORT owns or jointly owns the software, with a defined buyout. Take the cash ladder instead and you own it outright.
- No licensing to direct competitors without your written sign-off.
- Full documentation handoff, standing. You are never hostage to us.
DIY
Take the report and run it yourselves. We're on call for checkpoints at $500/hour.
Phase 3 retainer, by tier
| Tier | Price | What's in it |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | ~$8K/mo baseline | ExitLoop runs the platform we built, the standards, the cadence. |
| Tier 2 | priced at close | + Vendor management. Vendors bill HealthSPORT directly — ExitLoop manages the relationship. |
| Tier 3 | priced at close | Full Chief AI Officer — AI governance, policy, training, and literacy across the team. |

61 seconds to render, 69 before buttons work on the mobile homepage. Most visitors never see what you sell.
Conversion pages reflow as they load. Visitors aim at "Join Now" and click something else. Recordable on video.
Google can't crawl the CTA links on conversion pages — organic ranking is suppressed site-wide.
~700 KB of dead JavaScript ships on every page. The weight is in the platform, not the content — the case for rebuild over tune-up.
ADA exposure: contrast failures, keyboard traps, broken ARIA — the technical signature cited in digital-accessibility suits against gyms.
Everything in writing.
The full math, the build plan, and the software one-pager — open any of them, any time.
Susan, Erik & Doug — pick a time that works for all three of you.
