Exploring the Layers of Our Journey
Business Tripod, led by Helius Anthony D'Souza, serves as the umbrella for three companies—TAP (Trainer Adaptability Program), Crest Precision Sales, and Gym Start. While these companies primarily focus on scaling businesses within the fitness industry, Crest Precision Sales has successfully expanded into sectors like insurance, motorcycles, and car sales.
With its headquarters in Bangalore, Business Tripod's mission is to help businesses grow and become profitable, transforming the lives of both owners and employees. The company envisions a world where fewer businesses close annually, and inspired entrepreneurs open more, driven by their own success and growth.
In the aftermath of COVID-19, many gym businesses across India struggled to survive, with several closing down due to lockdowns and the shift to home-based workouts. Even post-pandemic, gyms are facing tough competition from new fitness models and competitors offering lower rates. Additionally, the rapid growth of fitness academies is producing a surge of newly certified trainers, which has made it harder for many fitness professionals to financially sustain themselves. As more coaches enter the market, competition for clients has intensified, making it increasingly difficult for independent trainers to differentiate themselves and thrive. One of the key reasons many businesses fail to grow or sustain themselves is the lack of time and effort invested in teaching their employees about sales, human behaviour, and how people make purchasing decisions. Many businesses close due to a lack of sales, which could be avoided with proper training. When employees are equipped with the right skills to understand and influence customer behaviour, businesses are better positioned for success and long-term growth.
