Great presentation!
As owners of a smaller fitness facility we found your suggestions incredibly helpful when we approached our Landlord regarding rent relief. Thank you. I was hoping to get your thoughts on the following. You had mentioned “The Road Ahead after COVID-19” and I was wondering if you had any suggestions/recommendations on including a COVID-19 specific inclusion on a Liability Waiver?
Hi Samantha, thank you for the kind words. Great question and thanks for your patience while we took so long to get back to you. Yes, definitely want to get COVID19 included on the liability waiver. Your insurance agent should have all the verbiage ready for you. Additionally, I would be leary of rushing to reopen. Let the other businesses test the waters. If you’ve been closed this long, what’s another 2+ weeks? The reward of opening right away may far outweigh the risk of transmitting COVID19 to your center’s members.
