About ABC Financial
Drawing from both background and experience, we’re able to help clients better understand their businesses and offer powerful insight into how they can put their goals within reach. Created by Jim Bottin as a solution to the billing and health club management software needs of his own chain, the company’s client base soon expanded to additional clubs, today covering over 8,000 clubs throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico and Europe. Today we strive not only to be the foremost resource for leading-edge technology in the fitness industry, but also to collect the most dues from the most club members, every day. We’re devoted to staying on the cusp of industry evolution in service and technology. Plus, we’ll continue to uphold only the highest level of commitment to our customers and their success. Because the strength of our company depends on the health of our relationships with customers, they remain a top priority at all levels of service. We continue to deliver cutting-edge technology with one goal in mind – to maximize revenue throughout the clubs we serve. For comprehensive billing services, the most advanced and up-to-date club management software, customized marketing programs and customer service that’s second to none, choose ABC Financial.
