Zenoti launched fitness in February and is hiring a Business Development Manager because it is "expanding aggressively into the fitness market". But a gym owner who reaches zenoti.com finds the evaluation tools built for beauty only: the comparison hub covers "salon, spa and medspa software" (even the Mindbody page is written "for spas and medspas"), there is no comparison with ABC Fitness or Glofox, and the ROI calculators exist for salons and medspas but not gyms. The fitness product has six pages; salon alone has 21.

Why it works
Have the new PMM write the fitness positioning first: two comparison pages (Zenoti vs ABC Fitness, Zenoti vs Glofox) and a fitness section in the Mindbody comparison, with membership billing, failed-payment recovery, class booking, check-in, AI lead follow-up and switching help. Build a gym ROI calculator from the same template as the salon one (members, monthly dues, churn, missed leads), and put both on the fitness pages and in the BDM's event follow-ups.
Gym operators compare against the software they already run; meeting them on that comparison, with their own numbers, turns event conversations and search visits into demos.
