About Busylizzy

Busylizzy is the UK’s no.1 club for new and expectant parents, and its mission is to make fitness fun for pregnant and new mums and their little ones.

Its clubs provide a supportive environment for members embarking on their first steps into motherhood.

Busylizzy is an award-winning management franchise in the fitness, health and wellbeing sector.

The Busylizzy customer base focuses on women in pregnancy, postnatal and baby fitness classes both in-person and online from baby classes through to yoga, utilising the latest technology for the benefit of the customer and the franchisee running their business.

How does the Busylizzy franchise model work?

As a Busylizzy franchise owner of a family club, you don’t need to teach the classes. Your time will be spent managing the business, from your home, and promoting it to young families.

Busylizzy provides you with all the tools, training, support and know-how to build your own successful Busylizzy club that fits around your own ambitions and family life.

Plus, classes are delivered both online and in local studio venues so parents can enjoy fitness and fun from the comfort of their own home or meet other like-minded mums in its fabulous local venues.

What attributes is Busylizzy looking for in franchisees?

Busylizzy is seeking suitable people to share in its success and start a franchise in their local area.

If you join, then Busylizzy will give you the opportunity to replicate its success and build your own club with all the support, knowledge, and first-class business systems.

Experience of working in the fitness and baby sector is not required but you should have lots of energy with a self-motivated and ‘can do’ attitude.

Busylizzy welcomes people from a wide range of backgrounds, but essential for any Busylizzy franchise owner is:
• genuine passion for the customer experience
• true service ethos
• strong determination to succeed.

What training and support does Busylizzy offer franchisees?

Firstly Busylizzy doesn’t expect you to be an expert in every area and there will probably be at least one part of the business you’ll need more assistance with, such as sales and marketing, accounts or contracts. But don’t worry help is always on hand.

Comprehensive new franchise owner training is required for the principal owner and/or operator of each new franchise. All aspects of the Operations Manual will be covered which includes the use of all the Busylizzy systems of operation, marketing, sales, administration and reporting financials as well as recruiting your instructor team.

This training will take place over a number of online web training modules and Zoom meetings. Alongside your initial training, the hive support team will set to work preparing everything you need to set up and promote your new club. From staff uniform, stationery and class supplies to phone line, email and CRM systems – the Busylizzy team will be busy behind the scenes holding your hand every step of the way.

After your initial training and club launch, it provides monthly analysis via its franchise dashboard so you can see how well the network is performing and benchmark your business against the company averages. Busylizzy’s online training portal is available for you to access anytime and consists of marketing material, how-to guides and videos, class lesson plans and all the master documents you need to run a successful business.

Why is Busylizzy a good investment?

According to the GOV.UK website, in 2019 alone, just under 650,000 babies were born in the UK, that’s a lot of babies! Long gone are the days where stay at home mums sit and nurture their offspring awaiting the return of their husbands from work each day. Being a new mum today is about juggling part-time work, dashing out the door on the school run and managing the house and chores.

How was Busylizzy founded?

Julie and Sarah are two mums who founded Busylizzy in September 2011 after spotting an opportunity for good quality, fun and professionally run classes for mums, their bumps and little ones.

Sarah, a solicitor, and Julie, a leisure professional, looked to improve every aspect of class provision that the traditional mum and baby class providers had on offer.

Busylizzy was born!

Not satisfied with grubby hall floors for classes, sessions stopping during the school holidays, just when they are needed the most, and penalties for missed classes – Julie and Sarah set about creating a club where a unique combination of classes could take place in lovely baby-friendly venues with simple online booking all wrapped up in one easy monthly payment model, one membership - everything a new mum needs!
