Anyone who knows me knows I love to shop and according to a recent Radio Sales Today article, the national fitness craze is combining these two. How you ask? By having health clubs anchor outdoor shopping centers, you can get fit, take a yoga class, pick up your vitamins and have coffee with your classmates without getting back in your car all morning. We all like convenience and this concept is the perfect answer. As you look around the creative corridor in which we live you will see this frequently, many times along with curb side parking. The article goes on to say that the health club member has a higher education, have disposable income and come to the center 3-4 times a week. When I travel I also see farmer’s markets in these centers' parking lots, thus playing to the healthy and fresh eating concept we all strive for. If you are looking to open a new business or have a hot new idea, you might want to think about the old saying; location, location, location! Talk to you soon.
