Wellhub growth playbook

Diagnosis

Wellhub is a global two-sided network whose hiring shows the focus: a website leader for an AI-run, conversion-led site, a global partner lifecycle leader, partner acquisition and portal product teams, signal-based outbound, and Wellz lifecycle marketing.

The website is where the quickest wins are: real visitors wait over half a second for the homepage to respond, 18 country sites lack hreflang and page language, 26,374 US gym pages show plan and price on the page but not in search results, and the Gympass rename is unfinished. This playbook speeds the site and sharpens search first, then builds the partner lifecycle, demand-led outbound and Wellz growth.

Growth Score

7/10

Biggest Opportunity

A faster, correctly localized site whose gym pages answer "is my gym on Wellhub, and for how much" right in search, with every gym search leading to an activation or a company referral.

Biggest Risk

ClassPass and FitOn Health compete for HR budgets, and a slow site undercuts the "largest network" promise just as the website is rebuilt around AI.

Quick wins with a clear first action.

  • 01

    Wellhub is hiring a Website Experience Sr. Director to own conversion and move the site to AI-assembled pages. Today real Chrome visitors wait 543 ms for the homepage to respond to a tap or click, and 470 ms across the site, more than twice Google's 200 ms "good" limit. On mobile the lab shows an 11.4 s largest paint and a second of blocking scripts, and the 590 KB homepage HTML repeats most headings and paragraphs two to four times. HR buyers and employees click "Contact sales" or "Find your plan" on a page that feels stuck.

    Smallest test

    Defer one chat widget and measure INP for two weeks.

    Why it works

    Render each section once instead of several hidden copies, load chat, session-recording and enrichment scripts only after the first interaction, split the homepage bundle by section, and give the new website team a speed budget (INP under 200 ms, LCP under 2.5 s) that every new or AI-assembled section must pass.

    Slow responses lose form starts on the pages that create MQLs and sign-ups, and a budget set now stops agent-built content from making it worse.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Tools lose data

      Load them later rather than removing them.

    • Duplicated sections serve mobile and desktop layouts

      Use one responsive section instead of separate copies.

    Wellhub runs 18 country sites on one domain with English, Spanish and Portuguese versions for several countries, but none of the homepages checked has hreflang tags or a page language. Google has to guess whether a UK HR manager should see /en-uk/ or /en-us/, or a Mexican buyer /es-mx/ or /es-es/.

    Fix the English-language sites first.

    Why it works

    Add hreflang tags for every equivalent page (or in the sitemaps), set lang on the html element per locale, and add an x-default. Check Search Console for the wrong country ranking.

    Right-country results mean right prices, plans and sales teams, and the missing lang attribute is also an accessibility fix.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Mismatched pages

      Only pair pages that truly match.

    Evidence

    • Your websiteInternational setup: 18 country sites (US, UK, Ireland, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Germany, Spain, France, Italy and others) share one domain, but the US, UK, German, Brazilian and Spanish homepages have no hreflang tags in the page or the sitemap, and their <html> tag carries no language.Source

    Wellhub has 26,374 US gym pages, each showing the gym's rating, the plan it starts on and the monthly price. But the title is only the gym name and city ("F45 Summerlin - Las Vegas") and the description is a generic "Access the ... gym" line, so a person searching "F45 Summerlin Wellhub" or "is my gym on Wellhub" sees nothing that answers the question.

    Change the template for Nevada and compare with Arizona.

    Why it works

    Change the title template to "<Gym> on Wellhub - <City> | from $<price>/mo" and the description to the rating, starting plan, price and top activities. Test on one state first, then roll out to every country.

    The answer people search for is already on the page; putting it in the result lifts clicks without new content.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Prices change

      Fill the price from the live plan data.

    Evidence

    • Your websiteGym pages (checked October 21, 2026): the US partner sitemap lists 26,374 gym and studio pages, and the city search sitemaps about 123,000 more US URLs. A gym page such as /en-us/search/partners/f45-summerlin-las-vegas/ shows a 4.92 rating from 12 reviews, "Starting at Titanium Plan ... $159.99/mo", a "Check eligibility" button and nearby gyms with their plans, but its title is just "F45 Summerlin - Las Vegas" (no Wellhub) and its description is "Access the F45 Summerlin gym - Las Vegas.

    About 123,000 US city search pages show gyms near the visitor, and many visitors' employers do not offer Wellhub yet. On city search pages, "Refer Your Company" is only a footer link, not offered next to the gyms the visitor wants.

    Run the banner in one large city.

    Why it works

    Add a banner on search results: "Not on Wellhub at work? Tell your HR team", opening the referral form prefilled with the city. Route referrals to BDRs with the gyms the employee looked at.

    An employee asking HR is a warm introduction, and the gyms they searched give sales a personal opening.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Low-quality referrals

      Ask for company and HR contact before submitting.

    Why it works

    Build a journey that watches each new partner's setup, sends the next step by email or WhatsApp, flags stalls to a human, and celebrates the first paid visit.

    Partners who see a first visit quickly stay, and automation lets the team handle many more partners.

    Run one pilot in one metro.

    Why it works

    Run joint campaigns with two chains: in-club signage, chain app messages and Wellhub ads for employees near those clubs, with tracked activations.

    Chains get new members, Wellhub gets activations, and HR sees big names in the network.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Chain conflict

      Keep offers non-exclusive where possible.

    Evidence

    • HiringNetwork and new ventures: a US Strategic Partnerships Director (posted September 18) for "large-scale gym chains", launching "first-to-market" initiatives including "exclusive co-marketing plays"; Social Media Specialists in the UK, Germany and Romania; and a Staff Product Manager for an Occupational Health bet in Brazil, a market where "every company is legally required to run occupational exams" (NR-01, eSocial) yet that "still runs on paper".Source

The homepage claims "110,000+ In-person gyms & studios", "3,800 Virtual personal trainers" and "90+ Premium wellness apps".Source

    Wellhub is building an occupational health product in Brazil, where every company must run occupational exams and the job post describes the market as still on paper.

    Test on 50 gyms.

    Why it works

    Gym pages already show the cheapest plan that includes the gym. Where partners agree, add their direct monthly price next to it and the saving.

    A concrete saving at the gym they want is the strongest reason to activate.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Partners object

How Programmable can help

Where an idea in this playbook is something Programmable builds or runs, it's listed here with what we'd do. Everything else is yours to run.

ProgrammableDigital

Show it, don't just describe it

These ideas need something to show: a demo, a video, an animation, graphics or a deck. Digital turns screenshots or the site into all of them, in the company's own brand.

The research behind the plan

3 research areas, each summarised in a few lines. Open any of them for the full detail.

Customers

What customers say

Customers value many gyms and apps for one price. The most cited problem: checking whether a specific gym is included.

  • Plans cheaper than direct memberships
  • Employer not offering Wellhub
  • In their words: “wellbeing benefit”

Market

Competitive landscape

3 competitors compared: ClassPass, FitOn Health and Direct gym memberships.

  • Gap to exploit: Gym-level proof for employees
  • ClassPass: Less HR reporting depth
  • FitOn Health: Smaller in-person network

Hiring signals

Wellhub is rebuilding its website and partner engine.

  • Website Experience Sr. Director: Conversion, measurement and an agentic website. Ideas 1-6, 16.
  • Senior Director, Partner Engagement & CRM (Global): AI-led partner lifecycle. Ideas 7, 8.
  • Staff Product Manager | Partners: Onboarding speed and payout transparency. Idea 9.
