opened up by me...I like it a lot.Now to the topic of this post, they people of marketing gods!
The first Monday of the month, they give out free pizza, all you can eat. There are hundreds of commercials for this the week prior to the free pizza, and about 200+ people come for this, at the time the pizza gets there.
Now, They are making so much money on this...
The gym get packed as soon as the people are done eating. Out of the 150 cardio machines, 2 were open for use after the first round of 30 pizza pies were delivered.
Man, what a way to make money.

Well done marketing. Ethical? Hell no.
