The body-mind deterioration induced by speedy life style and working pressure is a common problem to the people in modern society. So it becomes more and more popular to take good care of one¡¦s health by exercising, which also promotes the development of professional sport and leisure business, for example, the aerobics club. But due to the economic depression, decrease in national income, and the impact of card debt, the operating conditions of many famous aerobic clubs are getting severe, even some of them close down. Therefore it is important to find the key success factors to manage aerobics clubs, so as to increase the probability of successful operation.
The present study starts from collecting the relative references of sport and leisure business, aerobics, theory of decision-making management, and key success factors as well as their relative weighting. Then a Habitual Domains (HD) theory which is suitable to the characteristic of aerobics business is selected to analyze the key success factors. A multi-object decision-making method- Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is also implemented to analyze the two questionnaires filled by professionals. Finally, the Expert Choice 2000 code is used to analyze the importance of key success factors and perform weighting calculation.
Through the empirical analysis, the top priorities of key success factors of aerobics club operation are obtained, including the professionalism of coach, quality of service and software/hardware equipment. The operator of an aerobics club can follow the importance of priorities discussed in the present study to set up his own competitiveness, and then the aerobics club is assured to run permanently.
