of 6— Create your Claude account
What you'll accomplish
By the end of this guide, you'll have Claude configured as a gym-specific assistant that already knows your gym's name, pricing, policies, communication tone, and common tasks. Every social post, email, job posting, and training document you generate will be on-brand from the first draft — no more explaining your gym every single time you open a new chat.
What you'll need
- A Claude account at claude.ai (free account works; Claude Pro at $20/month gives more capacity)
- Your gym's membership pricing sheet
- Your cancellation/freeze policy (even a rough summary is fine)
- A few example emails or social posts you've written before (to show Claude your tone)
- Time needed: 30–45 minutes to set up; 2 minutes per task after that
- Cost: Free (limited) / $20/month (Claude Pro — recommended for regular use)
