There are various models that a business firm can use to analyze its environment.

Political factors

According to the results of the EU referendum (2016), the market and economic state have become notably uncertain. The impact of Brexit on the health and fitness sector of the UK is yet indefinite (UKactive, 2018). Nevertheless, the government of the UK is presently motivating parents and particularly single parents to go back to their workplace. The government is encouraging them to start their jobs, at least part-time so that the health and fitness sector can have an increasing number of staff in their sector of business (Cedar, 2014). There are many campaigns on behalf of the government like “active kids”, “get set for life”, “swap it, don’t stop it” and “how do you measure up”. This helps to encourage the community to get healthier and fit lifestyles. These campaigns help the gyms to get more memberships (UKactive, 2018).

Economic factors

The principal economic factors involve fluctuation rate, rate of interest, and economic state in general. The health and fitness sector generally a luxurious area for the people. Therefore if the economic state gets down, the consumers of this sector get decreased (UKactive, 2018).

Moreover, due to economic downturns, many health and fitness clubs are offering their customers more flexible offers. Therefore the competition level in the market is getting higher (Health club management, 2018). The Brexit issue can also cause a reduction in the salary range of the staff in health and fitness companies. They will need to give their customers discounts and improved service in order to survive the competition in the market (UKactive, 2018)…………………
