Charleroi · GDP per capita: €49000

Facteurs de risque

• Revenue sensitivity: staying closer to $25,200/month (vs $43,200) can delay the 3–5 month break-even
• Capacity utilization risk: CrossFit class scheduling may cap output and limit the path to $24,104/month profit
• Competitor shock risk: even though competitors nearby are currently 0, a new gym in the area could compress pricing
• Seasonality risk: lower attendance in off-peak months could reduce member renewals and margin
• Cost pressure risk: rent, coaching, and equipment replacement can erode the $11,144–$24,104 monthly profit range

Plan d’exécution

1. Secure a tight opening offer in Charleroi (founder pricing + first-month guarantee) to hit early membership targets within 60 days
2. Launch a weekly programming grid (beginner, fundamentals, and advanced) with structured class caps to protect margin and utilization
3. Implement a retention system (progress checks, 8–12 week transformation plans, automated renewals) to stabilize revenue above the $25,200 floor
4. Optimize pricing and revenue mix (memberships plus add-ons like nutrition coaching, small-group technique sessions) to pursue the $43,200 revenue scenario
5. Track unit economics weekly (class occupancy, churn, CAC payback, profit by cohort) and adjust capacity within the first quarter
6. Build local partnerships in Charleroi (physios, employers, schools) to generate steady leads and reduce acquisition volatility
