Skybound Fitness
Skybound
Fitness is a cozy, community-focused fitness studio located in
Malden that provides expert strength training coaching for everyday
people. The mission is to help members feel stronger, happier, and
confident in a welcoming, fun gym environment, without having to be
pro lifters.
As a first-time founder, Evan Le [photo right], founder and CEO of Skybound Fitness, faced the challenge of building a brand and customer base from scratch while navigating the complexities of lease agreements, business registration, and compliance. It was important to create a clear, actionable plan that would allow Skybound Fitness to stand out in a crowded fitness landscape while remaining financially and legally sound.
Evan commented:
The Massachusetts Small Business Development Center's Northeast Region was instrumental in helping me form my LLC, understand startup tax requirements, and clarify early marketing strategies to launch effectively. My advisor's support allowed me to prioritize what truly mattered as we opened our doors and began serving our local community.
Since opening, Skybound Fitness has grown from zero to over 60
recurring members in just eight months, generating $16,000 in
monthly recurring revenue by focusing on remarkable customer
experiences that keep members excited to return. Evan created a
space where people see real results and genuinely enjoy coming in.
This allowed Evan to expand his team by hiring Cat from
part-time to full-time coach to continue delivering high-quality coaching
to its growing community.
