Did You Hear That? Snap Fitness Partners With ConnectMeVoice for Hosted PBX

Chanhassen, Minn. - Snap Fitness, the world's fastest growing franchise system featuring compact, state-of-the-art fitness centers, announced that they have partnered with ConnectMeVoice.  ConnectMeVoice will provide a hosted private business exchange "PBX (News - Alert)" service designed to improve the quality of information that every caller receives when they contact a Snap Fitness franchise location.

"In addition to the many features available with this service, each one of our franchisees will save money on their phone bills," said Peter Taunton, CEO and Founder of Snap Fitness. "We're always looking for ways to help our franchisees and the combination of benefits in sales, efficiency, and costs savings all in one package was a very attractive offer."

The service, called SnapComm, includes call recording for all inbound and outbound calls. Users can have all of these recordings sent directly to their email or listen to them anytime by using the company's online portal. Users can get an immediate dial tone to make unlimited inbound and outbound calls.

SnapComm, allows users to forward calls coming into their local, toll-free number, or to as many as six Snap Fitness digital phone numbers. Callers may be greeted by the Snap Fitness pre-recorded information greeting and there is also a separate toll-free dedicated fax number that is included free with all plans.

Faxing gets easier too for franchisees as well. Users may simply click to print a certain document and then select ConnectMe Fax from the printer choices, completely replacing fax machines and fax phone lines.

"Getting the right phone system was important, since a high percentage of our sales come from phone calls," added Taunton. "This new service has been shown to have a direct and measurable impact on our franchisees' sales and retention efforts."
