Small Grants: Nouns Gym

tldr : Gym branded with nouns art

Idea : Create a franchise of Gym with nouns brand for fitness enthusiastic. We start fast but at a small scale to test the ground first.

~Very poor visual representation





Some updates since the last proposal
~Gym owner is planning to open the 2nd Gym under his name which would be bigger than the above one. Construction of that entire building would take time, estimated time not known but the gym will be underground. So nounifying this gym to test this field would be the best opportunity and let people get to know about Nouns, specially the local crowd.
Also, Gym owner is a well known micro celebrity, a model and have been on popular television live reality shows as well.

Breakdown of concept :
Nounifying an existing Gym :

  • Branding Nouns on gym walls/Renovation- $200 ( 0.16eth )
  • Nounish Tees for staff and trainer- $40 ( 0.031eth )
  • Agreement with Gym Owner( Approx ) - $600-$1300 ( 0.47-1.02 )
    The current gym I’m connected with earn around $1200-1800 per month with upto 50 members coming in daily during morning and night. This is a good start to nounify fitness industry by testing waters.
  • Provide Noggles inside the gym x 5 (Can be purchased directly via official Noun’s providers )

Total ask for Nounifying Gym : $1540 ( 1.2 ETH )
Keeping CC0 in mind, we can earn revenue from this gym in less than an year as well, with 5-10% shares. This will help us nounify other gyms in different localities from the revenue.

Evil, I think this a great idea! Maybe could add some stuff around the gym explaining what Nouns, the history, and how to get involved. Could be a way to onboard new members into the Nouns ecosystem. Let me know your thoughts.

Thank you for your support as well as other amazing builders and people from Shark DAO <3

Yes I do have that plan, not just a QR code to nouns.wtf but a panel that tells what these images called nouns hanging around their gym is.

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but I don’t think just sticking noggles onto stuff is enough to make it nounish. Maybe it’s just me but the presented way of nounifying a gym does not seem appealing to me.

Yes stickers wont do justice, check the first image of this proposal with gigachad, nouns and baki. I plan to renovate the entire place instead of just pasting stickers on walls. The other images are just for example since it include one of the gym I have in mind. Coming week will visit other gym that is more bigger compared to the current one that is shown right now.
Here’s what I said in one of the twitter spaces when I told people to explore my proposal
~ Nounish decor will make people curious and makes them wanna ask the trainer, owner and each other what these are all about
~ Since health industry is an ever expanding place, entering this area via a test ground by branding a gym is the best time and opportunity
~ Trainer, helpers and owner having their own Nounish Tees and few noggles in the gym would make people want to explore more about Nouns and hence encourage them to scan the QR and look more into Nouns.

In future if this test is a success we can do more like this in other gyms, not just in India but other places as well. Next step would be sponsoring competition ready body builders and organizing power lifting competition. Fitness industry, specially in India is booming compared to last few years since everyone wanna look good and aim to be an influencer at some way or another. This is indeed an amazing chance point of view to spread nouns

Some Merch designed for the same. I’ve got positive feedback from 2 gym owners, sadly they cant do partnership but will sure love to have some merch distributed in their gym. Above all they would like to promote it as well for free.
