Based on our 56-min discovery call⚡ TL;DR (The Short Version)
Your brand is strong. 9 locations, great facilities, loyal members. But your website is leaving money on the table.
- 1.No online booking — people can't book lanes or classes after hours
- 2.No instant answers — visitors leave when they can't get quick info
- 3.Mobile experience — buttons are hard to tap, pages load slow
Small changes = big results. Walmart increased sales by 20% just by improving their mobile site. Expedia made $12 million by removing ONE form field.

5 Quick Fixes (Do This Week)
Add a phone number that's always visible
Put your main number in the top corner of every page. Make it clickable on mobile (tap to call).
Change 'Find a Range' to 'Book Your Lane'
Action words work better. Tell people exactly what to do. 'Book' is stronger than 'Find.'
Put your Google reviews at the top
If you have 4.5+ stars, show it proudly. '500+ Five-Star Reviews' builds instant trust.
Add a simple contact form
Just: Name, Phone, 'What can we help with?' That's it. Keep it short — every extra field loses people.
Make buttons bigger on mobile
If someone can't easily tap your button with their thumb, they won't. Size matters.
