As for fees, $4k is pretty cheap. Bar Method franchise fee is $40k! But they provide a lot of support and quality control, and are most certainly interested in protecting the overall brand image. I just tend to think of 'boutique fitness' as being small, expensive, capitalizing on one type of workout. The individuality of Crossfit boxes and the variety of equipment/training modalities that go into the 'workout of the day' doesn't quite seem to fit the definition of 'boutique' to me. I also thought the story way over-spiritualized the concept. But interesting nonetheless. |
