Affiliate owners ask the same questions every year about the CrossFit Open—whether to run it, how to structure it, what to charge, and what actually matters.

👉 Use the Lead Need Calculator (free)
https://www.besthouroftheirday.com/lead-need-calculator

In this video, we break down why chasing more leads often makes growth feel harder — not easier.

Most CrossFit gyms don’t stall because they’re invisible.
They stall because they’re leaking members, sales, or both — and don’t know the math behind it.

Growth isn’t a motivation problem.
It’s not even a marketing problem.
It’s usually a math problem.

The Lead Need Calculator shows you:
• how churn impacts growth
• whether you actually have a lead problem
• how many leads you need based on your current numbers
• where growth is breaking down

The calculator doesn’t fix your gym.
It gives you clarity.

And clarity changes what you work on next.
