Gym Readiness Score — frequently asked questions
What pushes my readiness score highest?
Capital coverage contributes up to 50 points, business-plan completeness 25 and pre-sale traction 25 — a perfect submission scores 100.
How much capital counts as "enough"?
Enough to cover equipment CAPEX plus fit-out at $250/m², pre-opening at 10% of CAPEX, and three months of working capital at $35/m²/month — computed from your floor size and tier.
Do I need pre-sale members to score well?
Not necessarily. Pre-sale progress scales to 25 points; launching without any presales caps your composite at 75 regardless of capital strength.
What score means "go"?
Read the band the calculator returns: low scores mean fundamentals are missing, mid bands indicate launch-viable with gaps, and top-band scores support investor conversations.
