As the founder and former CEO of Planet Tan in Dallas, Hartl used profiling methods to reach the highest revenue on average store basis in the history of the tanning industry.

Hartl has already successfully opened Crunch locations in Waco and Killeen, Texas, and plans to bring a total of 21 Crunch gyms to the Austin and Central Texas area over the next five years. "The biggest leading indicator to any success are the people," Williford said. Williford previously served as CEO at Willco Landscaping, where he oversaw growth from $70K to $1.8 million. Hartl will work directly with Jason Williford, a proven business expert who is licensed with Culture Index through his company, Trailblazer Enterprises. Hartl says he is especially excited about the new partnership with Culture Index and the impact it will have on Crunch's most important resource, its people. This will bring 120 more jobs to Hartl's Crunch Fitness locations across Central Texas, which are all operated by Undefeated Tribe. The latest Lone Star locations slated for Fall 2019 openings are Tyler, League City and Corpus Christi.

This move comes on the heels of Crunch's unprecedented growth in Texas. AUSTIN, Texas, J/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - Crunch Franchise announced today a new partnership with Culture Index, a strategic advisory firm specializing in talent acquisition and retention.
