How We Helped Kult Fitness Reach 800+ Members in 4 Months
The Challenge: Launching a Brand-New Gym in a Competitive Market
Kult Fitness, a women-only gym in Fife, was a brand-new business with no existing marketing strategy and an urgent need for content to support their launch.
They had reached an advanced stage in the development of the gym when they realised they needed a structured marketing approach. However, they faced several challenges:
No Pre-Launch Strategy – No plan was in place to attract and convert members before opening.
Highly Competitive Market – Fife is dominated by a major gym chain, making it tough for an independent gym to establish a foothold.
No Content or Storytelling – With no existing media, Kult needed a way to introduce their brand and generate excitement.
With no time to waste, Kult Fitness turned to us to create a full content and marketing strategy that would position them as the go-to gym for women in Fife.
The Strategy: Building Demand Before the Doors Opened
To give Kult Fitness the strongest possible start, we implemented a three-phase content strategy designed to build anticipation, showcase the gym, and drive memberships.
Phase 1: Pre-Launch Hype & Storytelling
Before Kult even opened its doors, we needed to make women in Fife feel connected to the gym. Our approach focused on:
✅ Documenting the Gym Build – Weekly content showcasing the transformation of the space, generating curiosity and excitement.
✅ Storytelling Through Social Media – Engaging reels showing the progress, alongside messaging that positioned Kult as more than just a gym—it was a movement for women’s empowerment.
✅ Capturing a Waitlist of Interested Members – Ensuring all content directed traffic towards email capture, allowing Kult to build a warm audience ready to sign up at launch.
Phase 2: The Big Launch
With anticipation built, the next step was to turn interest into memberships. This phase included:
✅ High-Impact Gym Showcase Content – We filmed the gym fully set up and ready to go, focusing on its unique design and women-only atmosphere.
✅ Community-Focused Reels – Content featuring early members, showcasing the energy and inclusivity of Kult Fitness.
✅ Social Media Domination – We created high-engagement posts that positioned Kult as Fife’s most exciting new gym.
Phase 3: Sustaining Momentum
To ensure Kult didn’t just have a great launch but also continued to grow, we focused on:
✅ Capturing Classes in Action – Filming the full range of classes to help potential members see what Kult offered.
✅ Showcasing Lifestyle & Community – Content highlighting meal prep options, events, and the empowering culture of the gym.
✅ Consistent Content Pipeline – Providing a steady flow of high-quality, shareable reels to drive organic reach and word-of-mouth growth.
