IHRSA 2017: What You Can Expect From ABC Financial

By: Ali Adcock

Our favorite time of the year is almost here, IHRSA! We truly look forward to IHRSA year round and are getting very excited to see what all IHRSA 2017 holds in Los Angeles this year. While we are excited to see what’s new at IHRSA, we are also thrilled to share what you can expect from US this year! From software updates to awesome sponsorships, and even some fun social media contests, you definitely want to stop by our booth (#1545) to learn more! Until then, we’ve compiled a quick list of what you can expect.

Software Updates
We are excited to announce two recent updates to our health club software DataTrak, including the integration of MICROS and an all new Spanish language experience. MICROS specializes in point-of-sale (POS) transactions for food and beverage sales, which means members now have the ability to use their DataTrak Club Account/House Charge to pay for MICROS POS transactions. With the addition of the Spanish language experience for DataTrak, users can experience the same functionality as the English version and it doesn’t require any additional equipment to run. Users also have the ability to run the Spanish and English versions side by side and view all the same data and reporting.

Demos
At any point during the tradeshow you’ll find us providing demos to those interested in using our software. We have seven stations available to demo our DataTrak software. We love sharing what our software can do for gym owners and we’d be thrilled to share this information to those who are interested. We’ll also have plenty members of our ABC sales team available for questions regarding our services. If you’re interested in booking a demo ahead of time give us a call at 800-551-9733 or text DATATRAK to 87365 (88988 for Canadian numbers) to schedule.

SnapChat Filters
We’re excited to announce two fun SnapChat filters you’ll see during the IHRSA convention. You can expect to see a different filter for each of the two tradeshow days and we’ve also decided to turn them into a fun contest to commemorate the excitement of the tradeshow experience. As you’re walking through the LA Convention Center and open your SnapChat app, you’ll see our filter and can use it anytime throughout the day. We are asking anyone who uses our filter to take a selfie and send it to us for your chance to win Apple AirPods or a Fitbit. We think these are awesome prizes for anyone in the fitness industry! Winners will be announced Monday, March 13, 2017. For full contest details and/or help entering, stop by and visit us at booth 1545.

Sponsorships
This year we’re participating in many great sponsorships from the Member Center to hotel key cards. We enjoy having the opportunity to sponsor many different events and activities at IHRSA each year. This year you’ll see us on some awesome banners, as well as hotel key cards from the official hotels of IHRSA. We’re sponsoring the Industry Leader Council Summit (ILC), along with the member center. So when you’re tired from a long day of walking you can come relax in the Member Center (Room 150) on tradeshow days anytime from 6:30a-6:30p. Need to have a quick meeting? You can also do that at the member center. Getting to participate in many sponsorships during IHRSA gives us the opportunity to meet new people and spread the word about our services. We can wait to see you there!
