Delivering athlete‑level performance support at scale

Athlete Focused, UK

Athlete Focused

Athlete Focused is a franchise business delivering elite-level, holistic performance support to athletes, schools, teams and professionals. Operating across the UK and Abu Dhabi, their expertise spans strength & conditioning, sports science, psychology, nutrition and educations to help people perform better and thrive in all areas of life.

The requirement

Athlete Focused had bold ambitions to scale both its performance services and its franchise network. To get there, it needed a sharper, more strategically led brand and marketing approach. Its website was also holding it back, unable to properly showcase its offer or support a growing, multi-franchise model.

Our approach

Genoa Black worked closely with Athlete Focused to develop a brand and marketing strategy to support its growth ambitions. We also supported with the development of the new Athlete Focused website, an elevated platform for the brand to deliver its key messages, reach target audiences and drive revenue through online sales. Genoa Black has also taken on the role of Athlete Focused’s marketing partner to activate the brand and marketing strategy, delivering social media management, content development, campaign planning, paid social, email and design services.

The result

Sales and marketing are now working in sync, supported by a consistent, high-quality brand presence across every channel. Video has become a standout part of the content mix, helping showcase expertise and build stronger audience connection.

The internal team is fully engaged, regularly contributing content and amplifying activity through their own platforms. Since launch, the refreshed brand and website have created real momentum, strengthening lead generation and driving continued business growth.

Genoa Black have been incredible to work with. From our very first collaboration on the Glasgow Growth Fund through to the strategic marketing support that led to our new website and marketing
plan, they’ve been consistently excellent.

Our relationship is genuinely a partnership - we work closely together on the strategy going forward, and they’re brilliant at helping make sense of my ideas while supporting our team and wider network to ensure we’re all aligned from a marketing perspective.

Steph and Lois truly understand the business and the importance of a positive ROI. It feels like they’re an extension of our organisation rather than an external agency, and that level of integration makes a real difference.”
