The CS Fit Pilates Migrates from Glofox to Zipper's All-in-One Platform

How The CS Fit Pilates consolidated Wix and Glofox onto Zipper across 3 Bergen County studios — 10+ hours/week saved, 15+ weekly leads, 75% conversion, 10x organic traffic.

The challenge

The CS Fit Pilates is a premium small-group Pilates studio operating three locations across Bergen County, NJ — Wyckoff, Allendale, and Ho-Ho-Kus — owned by Cara Schroter. Running three locations on a patchwork of disconnected tools — Wix for the website, Glofox for studio management, and a separate stack for lead tracking — created daily friction the team couldn’t scale through.

Studio management challenges with Glofox

  • Instructors couldn’t independently manage their private session calendars — every change required owner intervention
  • Routine admin tasks were unnecessarily complicated and time-consuming
  • Platform inflexibility made specific workflow requirements impossible
  • Staff constantly needed the owner’s help for basic booking functions

The multi-platform problem

Beyond Glofox itself, the studio was juggling three separate systems:

  • Wix for website management
  • Glofox for studio operations
  • Separate tools for lead management

The cost of that fragmentation showed up everywhere:

  • Data scattered across platforms with no integration
  • Frequent platform switching disrupting daily workflows
  • Leads slipping through the cracks between systems
  • No unified view of business performance
  • Redundant data entry across tools
