1. Just ask: I know this sounds completely obvious, but this might be the easiest way to get more Crossfit members. This is applicable to job hunting, finding a restaurant or even a baby sitter. I’d recommend that you seek out a few loyal members of your box. If they have been members for awhile, that means they probably like your box. Simply ask them if they could recommend any new members.  If you have loyal members and you have a great box, I’d bet they’re more than  happy to recommend a person or two to come in.
2. Offer a discount: You could try offering a discount for every referral someone brings in. If a  current members gets another person to sign up for at least a month, you could discount the referrers payment that month. You could offer half off a month of Crossfit if a member get a new person to sign up. Sometimes people might respond better to a little incentive.

Give that little encouragement by asking - just don’t be too pushy about it. Try these ideas out and thrive.
