Facteurs de risque

• Lower end revenue risk: $25,200/month may extend payback toward the 5-month break-even threshold
• High-margin exposure: profit could compress from $11,144 to $24,104 if class attendance or pricing underperforms
• Currency/price sensitivity in a low GDP/capita market ($1,830), increasing demand volatility
• Single-site dependency: brick-and-mortar operations can face occupancy and utility cost shocks before membership stabilizes

Plan d’exécution

1. Validate demand in Ngaoundéré with a 2-week free fundamentals program and pre-sales for membership packages
2. Launch a scalable class schedule (Foundations, Strength, MetCon) with capacity targets that align with the revenue band ($25,200–$43,200)
3. Set tiered pricing (drop-in, monthly, family) and track conversion from trial to paid memberships weekly
4. Optimize startup and operating costs to protect the 3–5 month break-even timeline using a strict budget for equipment, rent, and staffing
5. Deliver differentiation through measurable coaching outcomes (WOD progressions, beginner onboarding, monthly challenges) to sustain retention
6. Run local partnerships (schools, corporate groups, sports clubs) to accelerate membership growth despite low GDP/capita
