5 cool things #1



GetFit.hk Progress

  • [+] More clubs are contacting me directly to be listed on GetFit.hk which is a very nice surprise.
  • [+] Have had a number of good suggestions from clever friends on how to move forward with the site (Thank you all), just need to work out which works best for what I want to achieve.
  • [+] Slight pivot/test, currently organising an in person seminar: Online marketing training for PTs and Sport professionals, aiming to run around Mid November, but still deciding on the Venue. Need to hurry up so i could start marketing.
  • [-] Haven’t really had time to work on the site redesign or getting additional studios to sign up
  • [-] Website traffic is down, but i’m not sure if it’s because now summer is over or because of bad SEO performance due to recent Google SEO changes
  • [-] Facebook activity is back down again now I’ve ended 10 weeks of Daily Health Challenge posts. The experiment helped develop a good following, but was too much work. Might come back to it later on

Credit cards reimagined

Its fascinating to think how something as big as credit cards can be disrupted, I would have imagined Visa, Mastercard and the banks would throw money at these company to stop their innovation, I’m rather glad that hasn’t happened.

  • Both https://www.plastc.com/ and https://onlycoin.com/ are both smart credit cards that allow you to combine your various credit cards into one single e-ink device. I love the idea, just slightly concerned about how these can be hacked.
