A look back at some of the highlights of our team’s journey at IHRSA and what a direct communication channel such as text message marketing means to the health, fitness and wellness industry.
PLEASANT HILL, CA, April, 16 2018 — Textmunication Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK: TXHD), about a month ago we preparing ourselves for one of the most notorious trade shows in North America to start in San Diego–IHRSA, the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association. IHRSA has created a platform for businesses of all scales in the health and fitness to have a place to meet, greet and connect with one another, furthering the communal ties and relationships of software and hardware contributors.
What is IHRSA?
IHRSA is a unique trade association dedicated to bringing huge awareness to consumer trends, ideas, best practices, the expanding interest of gym owners, all while promoting the most important ideal, which is the vitality. It is an organization that has taken on such immense responsibility but has done so holistically and is growing so much every year.
Why was Textmunication there?
Our team went out to IHRSA this year to meet with some of the great people behind the relationships we have made. To connect with them a little further and learn more about their products, services and how text messaging has helped our partners impact their business models. Some of our Partners include:
1. ABC Financial
ABC has been in business since 1981 and currently works with over 7,000 health clubs making them the nations leading software and payment processing provider for the health and fitness.
2. Jonas Fitness
Jonas software was created from the acquisition of software, billing services and other assets of Club Solutions by Fiserv, Inc. and has over 25,000 customers in more than 15 countries worldwide.
These are both partners who have yielded positive results from integrating or using text messaging for member engagement. Our partners have software and payment processing running all of their clients billing needs and also have a text messaging provider improving the communication that is needed in those areas, one text at a time.
The essence of it all was that IHRSA brought us all together, which is exactly why we wanted to attend! Here are some captures from our Marketing team who were there to document it all:

Mobile communications mean a lot to every industry especially in the health and fitness because the front office has a lot to tell their members. It must be simple, short-form and timely which is what makes texting viable. These considerations are what created the platform traits of SAM and what will change communication in the health, fitness and wellness community for the years to come.
