In this episode of the Franchise My Business podcast, we are joined by Karen Broadwater, President of Iron Tribe Fitness, an emerging franchise system that creates careers in fitness. She has been with the organization for over a decade and has worked her way up from an administrative assistant to the CEO to her current position as President.
Iron Tribe Fitness is a fitness franchise that offers small group classes with a maximum of 16 people per class. The franchise system is unique in that it creates careers in fitness for passionate fitness professionals who may not have the business acumen to start their own fitness business. The goal is to change lives and create fitness communities that benefit staff, clients, and franchise partners.
