Pro-Life Fitness Centre is a state-of-the-art establishment in the fitness industry, based in Paisley in the West of Scotland. First opening its doors in 1990, Pro-Life has continuously developed and evolved to meet the needs of its members and the community - with customer service always at its core. In the last 2 years the Pro-Life team had been noticing more and more of their customers driving electric cars into their carpark. Then in more recent times they started receiving feedback that they should investigate offering EV charging for when customers were using their facility.
Morag, the manager of Pro-Life Fitness Centre, began to explore opportunities to provide EV charging facilities, keen to find an all-in-one solution that would allow her to manage the chargers remotely via a back office system, while setting different charging rates for staff, members, and the general public. She was also keen to find a solution that would not cost anything to the business and instead actually help it to drive revenue through EV charging.
Several vendors approached Morag with proposals for electric vehicle charging solutions, however, Morag chose Connekt EV Charging due to our comprehensive in-house EV Charging Software and robust 24/7 support line, ensuring uninterrupted operations without customer disturbances.
Connekt EV Charging implemented a dual 22kW charger, enabling two vehicles to charge simultaneously while customers focus on their fitness routines.
Initially hesitant about the potential return on investment, Morag took the leap of faith with Connekt. Soon after implementation, she realised the untapped revenue potential of their parking spaces. Morag's initial apprehension transformed into satisfaction and regret for not adopting the solution sooner.
"During my recent meeting with several EV charging companies, I initially had reservations due to my unfamiliarity with the subject. However, after meeting with Chris from Connekt Charging, I was impressed by his ability to clearly explain the process and alleviate my concerns. As a result, we were able to successfully install two EV charging stations in our carpark within four weeks of our initial meeting. The utilisation of these charging stations has exceeded our initial projections, prompting us to consider expanding our EV charging infrastructure. I really wish I had done this sooner. We anticipate a growing number of EVs in our carpark over time and look forward to collaborating with Chris again in the near future."
The collaboration between Pro-Life Fitness Centre and Connekt EV Charging proves that innovative EV charging technology can be used to enhance business profitability. By leveraging their parking area to offer EV charging services, Pro-Life not only diversified their revenue streams but also contributed to their own sustainability initiatives and corporate social responsibility goals. Morag's decision to partner with Connekt demonstrates the power of forward-thinking and strategic investment in meeting growing customer demands.
Through this partnership, Pro-Life Fitness Centre once again proves its steadfast commitment to customer satisfaction, and Connekt EV are delighted to be a part of that journey!
