January 8, 2023
New Features in This Update
We’re excited to announce a major update to Red Belt Gym: our formerly separate tool — Red Belt Chat and its messaging features — is now fully merged into the core platform.
That means you no longer need extra logins or disconnected systems. Now, everything you need to manage student inquiries and leads is inside Red Belt Gym — saving you time and helping you convert more leads into paying students.
Unified Communication Support
Managing your martial arts school’s inbox just got easier. With Red Belt Gym:
Connect your school's Facebook Page(s) Directly
Let multiple staff or admins answer messages from one place.
Keep conversations professional and consistent.
This ensures every potential student who messages your school gets the attention they deserve.
A True Unified Inbox
Instead of bouncing between apps, your messages are now in the same place as your SMS, email, and call history.
See new messages instantly.
Respond faster to inquiries.
Convert leads into sign-ups at a higher rate.
No more lost conversations. No more missed opportunities.
Organized Conversations
Red Belt Gym brings all the organization tools from Red Belt Chat into your CRM:
Tag conversations by lead type, interest level, or program.
Get alerts to follow up so you never forget a lead.
This ensures every potential student who messages your school gets the attention they deserve.
Broadcast Messaging Made Easy
Need to announce a schedule change, promote a special event, or push an intro offer? Now you can:
Type your message once and broadcast it to everyone who has messaged your page.
Or, send targeted campaigns to people with specific tags (like “kids program,” “BJJ,” or “trial class”).
This makes communication faster, smarter, and more effective.
Bug Fixes
No bug fixes in this update.
Why This Matters
By merging Red Belt Chat into Red Belt Gym, we’ve eliminated the need for outside tools — giving martial arts schools:
One platform for all communication.
Less time wasted switching between apps.
More student conversions thanks to faster follow-up.
It’s a major step toward making Red Belt Gym the only software you’ll ever need to run and grow your martial arts school.
