Targeted Email Campaigns

Different from the WNiF Monthly eNewsletter because firstly, all of the content is for your supplier business only (the eNewsletter and News Feeds can feature up to 8 suppliers).

Targeted email campaigns are very popular with suppliers throughout the year, but are increasingly employed in the run-up to trade shows, expos, and events. Add this quick response vehicle to your marketing mix to increase or maintain product promotion and sales drive. 

Featured Article Placement

For only $249 per week, you can make your feature article sticky on the WNiF home page and beyond by taking out prime position.

With new content published throughout the week, this is a great way for your business to retain some longevity with your article, post, or promotion.

A ‘sticky’ post means you take the premium position ahead of all other articles, offering great exposure for your article, press release, competition, or announcement.

This position is reserved for only one article, so if you’ve got something big coming up, contact us to secure your spot!

Any supplier who has a product, service, course, franchise or business opportunity they want to take to the Australian market.

Commercial Fitness Supplier Guide

Please Note:
The WNiF Supplier Guide is currently being overhauled. Thank you for your patience while we work to get you an up to date resource!

The What’s New in Fitness website would not exist without our relationship with the Australian commercial gym and fitness equipment suppliers. With a steady flow of content coming from those suppliers, it made sense we built a platform containing a comprehensive guide of all the commercial fitness equipment suppliers available to the fitness business owner community.

The Commercial Fitness Supplier Guide contains over 1,200 registered commercial fitness supplier businesses. Showcasing your supplier business to thousands of visitors per month, you know you are reaching your true target audience with all the relevant information on your range of commercial fitness equipment and supplier products and services to help them make that purchasing decision.

WNiF Weekly News Feed - Designed for Mobile

Weekly News Feed

We’ve decided to pause our Weekly Newsfeed for now, because we know what it’s like to get too many emails!

Our monthly eNewsletter is a great way to stay up to date with out best new content. If there’s a particular topic you’re interested in, reach out and let us know so we can send you targeted emails that are curated for particular audiences.

Quarterly Magazine

From 2012 through to 2019, What’s New in Fitness published 26 ‘digital interactive’ editions of the WNiF Magazine, extending the readership to well over 200,000 per annum.

Originally a paper publication, WNiF chose to become digital because for your business to reach people, it needs to fish where the fish are – that’s online, and the pond is getting bigger.

Digital marketing not only allows you to monitor the success of your campaign, but it allows you to interact with the readers through video, image galleries, direct call-to-actions, and even “buy now” options. The WNiF includes:

  • Mobile responsive design so you can view on any device.
  • The ability to embed your latest promotional video or add a photo image gallery.
  • Date capture from your digital advert by adding an enquiry form.
  • Linking your social media platforms and spread the word.
  • Monitoring direct interaction  – how many people saw your ad, how many clicked on it, and how many of those clicks resulted in new website traffic.
  • The ability to change or update your digital advert at any time free of charge.

The coronavirus pandemic that brought the fitness industry to a standstill saw the WNiF Quarterly magazine put on hold. The What’s New in Fitness digital marketing platform changed hands in early 2023 and is now under new management.

We are busily working on building the platform up on many levels and hope to relaunch the magazine in the future. In the meantime, we have several other advertising channels available to help promote your business.
