Daniel and Suzette Sweatt are dedicated to sharing their passion for healthier living. After years of successful training, they recently incorporated Kangoo Jumps to make fitness fun – and to reduce childhood obesity.
WHAT LED YOU TO START YOUR BUSINESS?
I was focused on becoming a support system for my community. My quest for inner health motivated me to ensure that wellness education was available to all.
WHAT DOES BEING A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER MEAN TO YOU?
I absolutely love being a small business owner! It means that we’re doing something that has meaning. Our business fills a need in our community and enhances people’s lives.
WHAT MAKES YOUR BUSINESS UNIQUE?
Sweatboxx Wellness Center is unique because we specialize in Kids Kangoo Discovery. We’re the only licensed instructor to teach Kangoo Discovery for kids in a full 8 week learning curriculum format. The Kangoo system is designed to reduce childhood obesity. The kids don’t even realize they’re working out because it’s super fun.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING DIFFERENTLY THIS YEAR TO REACH YOUR CUSTOMERS AND GENERATE SALES?
This year we’ve come up with several targeted online campaigns. For example, we opted for Black Friday “live” sales segments. On Small Business Saturday, we pivoted to client testimonials and included a customized waist trainer as a Saturday-only special. On Cyber Monday, we dropped teaser bundles and kid packages with much needed school supplies.
WHAT'S THE BEST HOLIDAY GIFT YOU EVER RECEIVED?
My best gift was seeing all four of my adult children and grandkids from all over the world on Zoom. My second best gift was becoming an Internationally-Licensed Kangoo Jumps Instructor in Spain.
