How we built a Premium Acquisition System in a highly competitive and fragmented market

HiFit is not just another gym.

In Genoa, HiFit is a Club: carefully designed weight rooms, modern environments, premium service, capped memberships, and personalized attention.

A clear positioning.
Fierce competition.

On one side, FitActive, aggressive on price.
On the other, Virgin, a long-standing and well-established benchmark.

In between stands HiFit: two locations (Genoa Campi and Genoa Est) offering a high-quality experience… but struggling to communicate it clearly and make it stand out in advertising campaigns.

And the results didn’t reflect the true value of the club.

When we joined the project, one thing was clear:

HiFit didn’t have a volume problem.
It had a structure problem.

Here’s what was happening behind the scenes:

🔸 Meta lead forms used without filters
Low-cost leads… often unusable.

🔸 No Pixel installed on landing pages
No tracking.
No reliable data.
No real possibility to optimize.

🔸 Confusing ads with too many elements in the same creative
Photos + videos + multiple copy variations → impossible to understand what was actually working.

🔸 Non-automated, hard-to-use CRM
The sales team was competent, but unsupported by the system.

🔸 Unbalanced communication
At times, campaigns communicated “sold out”… when in reality only the coupons were sold out, not the club capacity.

A high-potential ecosystem, but without a clear flow.
A premium product communicated with misaligned tools.

HiFit deserved much more.

We intervened on every part of the machine — with no compromises.

1. New, clean ad account setup 🔸

→ Poor legacy structure from the past
→ First priority: enable proper event tracking across the entire funnel
→ A basic step, but absolutely essential

2. Meta campaigns with a clear structure 🔸

• Budget split by individual communication angle
• Creatives tested and isolated for clear data interpretation
• Full tracking
• Daily optimization

3. New FitLeads landing pages 🔸

Used for both clubs, featuring:

• Premium design consistent with the brand
• Clear benefit-driven messaging
• Clear offer: 14 days for €14.90
• Instant CRM integration — no wasted time
• Automated lead routing based on selected location

4. WhatsApp welcome automations 🔸

Including:

• Immediate message
• Owner’s welcome video
• Appointment confirmation reminders
• Automatic lead tagging for filtering

5. Creatives that won the market 🔸

Two in particular:

• Breaking News → to create urgency and a sense of limited availability
• Club videos → to showcase quality, order, and premium atmosphere

There’s no benchmark that can outperform reality — when reality looks this good.

HiFit wasn’t starting from zero.

Yet the first two months immediately confirmed a clear pattern:

📌 Qualified leads, not just more leads
📌 Stable, healthy cost per contact
📌 Faster, more effective sales team
📌 Perceived value finally aligned with the club’s true positioning

Because HiFit is premium — and it needed a premium machine.

FitLeads doesn’t simply drive traffic.
It builds systems.

In this case:

• Cleaner communication
• Messaging realigned with the club’s value
• Automated CRM
• WhatsApp as both a filter and an accelerator
• Structured funnel
• Consistent creatives
• Finally, accurate tracking

A transformation visible in the data… and felt by the team, day after day.
