Membership renewals and dropout-prevention for gyms.

Gym dropout has a predictable shape. AI calling intervenes at exactly the right moment.

Gym dropout follows a curve: a member who hasn’t shown up in 11 days has a 40 % chance of cancelling. By day 25, it’s 75 %. The intervention window is narrow and the calls are awkward — “we’ve missed you” calls feel performative when a tired front-desk staffer makes them at 8 PM.

AI calling makes them feel sincere. A Storyteller agent calls on day 10 with curiosity, not guilt. Asks if anything has changed at home or work. Suggests a flexible drop-in schedule, a class type they haven’t tried, or a one-month freeze. Books the next visit if they’re ready.

Renewals get easier too

30 days before expiry, the agent calls. Reviews their last 90 days of attendance, mentions any class instructors they liked, offers two renewal price points. Members who hear about their own attendance pattern renew at almost double the rate of cold renewal calls.

Gym chains running this report 18-22 % improvement in retention with a single agent doing both conversations.
