To our loyal athletes:
Have you ever heard of, or about the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon??
Well, the 6 degrees of RedShed CrossFit is getting a little bit out of control!! In addition to that, there are many poachers out there!
Our message is a very clear one… we are in this to help you, our loyal athletes… the ShedHeads. We are not in business to help other businesses be as good as us. This program and all of its parts has been “out there” for many years, and just recently we have noticed too many similarities among newer affiliates and phony affiliates alike.
We found CrossFit, developed our business model, and created our RedShed brand… it came from our minds… not from lurking the internet and “borrowing” from other affiliates (and if we did use something from another affiliate, we damn sure gave them credit!!).
Yes, imitation is flattery… and we get that. And this isn’t a “we’re taking our ball and going home” scenario!! It’s just a simple message to the poachers, and to all of the folks who are a part of the 6 degrees of RedShed CrossFit… just be original, and develop your brand… not ours.
Our programming is going private for a few weeks… the WOD blog will be protected, and viewing requests must be made to me directly. Yes I realize that our loyal athletes can leak that info… but do you really want to be “that guy”??
I love my job, and my life! CrossFit has been an amazing catalyst for me, my family and our business partnership. I believe very strongly in our Basic Training model and how we approach introducing you to CrossFit and starting you along on your journey. It is for these reasons that I feel we need to protect our brand and ask that you do the same!
Thanks for your time and consideration!
