Now operating three Snap Fitness locations in Christchurch, Cross Hands and Melksham – with his first Irish club opening in Ireland in September – and already servicing close to 5,000 members, Sam believes that hard work and a great franchisor-franchisee relationship are the key ingredients to his franchising success.
