"REX Roundtable paid me back the very first meeting. REX Roundtable gives me a Board of Directors to keep me on my toes and in touch with my business. REX Roundtable gives me the accountability to stay focused on my business and a guide to keep my key numbers where they need to be." Tom Kulp Universal Athletic Club Lancaster, PA "The roundtable challenged me to think in terms of competition. We share our numbers and key indicators and hold each other accountable. Sharing numbers creates a closeness and high level of trust. It's a miraculous thing to experience." Average annual growth 13% a year for the past 15 years of REX Roundtable membership." Bob Provost SportsClub Greenville Greenville, SC "My 7 years on the Rex Roundtable has been the single most important professional growth experience of my career and the relationships that I formed have become the most significant group of friends in my life. Will seems to know exactly what question I need to ask myself and or face at that very moment in time. That pushes me to be better professionally and personally and, often, to be as brutally honest with myself as I am with others. I don't get that from very many people in my life—rather they don't even want to play in my sandbox." Casey Conrad Healthy Inspirations (Franchising Business) Wakefield,RI "I get broader educational perspective on a variety of issues (leadership, management, and different ways to view our business), unbelievable networking and support system from REX Roundtable members." Average annual growth 13% a year for the past 13 years." Faith Pulis The Thoreau Club Concord, MA "The REX Roundtable has performed the function of a Corporate Board offering wisdom and direction not usually found in the bedlam of the day to day operation and the key staff that get caught up in the management of the business."

Average annual growth 16% a year for the past 7 years." Terry Dezzutti Merritt Athletic Clubs Baltimore, MD "I have not missed a Roundtable meeting in the last twelve years. They keep me inside my industry with smart peers with solid experience. The years I've been in REX is equivalent to an Executive MBA, but more focused and more practical.

C Victor Brick CEO, Brick Bodies Fitness Services "My time with REX has been one of the best personal investments I have ever made.

Tony DeLeede CEO, Fitness First Australia "Over the years Will Phillips has provided me with frameworks for looking at business that helps me sort out my thoughts and arrive at simple but powerful strategies for success.
