So Veeky Forums I recently came into some money and decided I want to put it towards a business rather than letting it rot in a bank. I love lifting so the thought of opening a small gym seems very attractive to me. What terrifies me is the 90ish% failure rate of gyms within 5 years.
Does anyone have any experiences with gyms? Note I live in Japan and the lifting culture here is present but very small compared to the west.

Don't japs think muscles are gay
Doesn't your mother think you're gay?
maybe focus on a sauna/bathouse with weight available to members
So you've got two options OP.
1. Make money from a small base of clients who pay high fees. They are willing to pay high fees because you offer a niche service. That could be Olympic weightlifting coaching, coaching for pensioners, disabled, powerlifters, bodybuilders, the list goes on.
2. Run off memberships from normies who never turn up. This is more lucrative and might actually give you a return on your investment
You're gay
Good idea but that's getting a bit out of my price range. That and the age groups of bath goers and gym goers has a little overlap.
At this point I'm thinking I should just buy an anytime fitness franchise for the brand security.
Im a manager at a gym and lately ive been using community and science to get as much subscribers as i can. Its been pretty successful and having a handful of regulars with great results using my methods helped a lot too. Before me they focused on the personal trainers which is just not good anymore with the internet out.
Only thing that sucks is when i come accross a gym member outside and they talk to me for hours, but i guess i set myself up for that.
Not gonna lie. Number two seems to be the more attractive option. I've always been a more business oriented person than teaching oriented. I doubt I could teach oly lifters anything they don't already know. Id just be providing the space
Are you a Jap or an expat?
why dont u have those blow job girls in the suana for post workout?
or girls that will sit on u while u lift to increase test?
