How My PT Hub Found the Right Partner in PYXiS

What if, instead of feeling like a loss of control, an acquisition felt like an opportunity to build something even stronger? That’s exactly what My PT Hub experienced when PYXiS Software Group came into the picture.

‍

For COO Lewis Agnew, the fear of losing autonomy or compromising values was a concern when discussing growth. However, PYXiS isn’t just about numbers.

Building Trust Over Time

For My PT Hub, this acquisition wasn’t just about financials. As Agnew recalls, PYXiS didn’t approach them coldly with numbers and contracts. Instead, they built a relationship over time, fostering trust and a deep understanding of what My PT Hub had built since its inception. This wasn’t the first acquisition offer My PT Hub had received, but PYXiS stood out by showing that they valued more than just the bottom line.

‍

"PYXiS built a relationship over time... it wasn’t just a cold approach," Agnew shared. This gradual and thoughtful engagement reassured My PT Hub’s leadership that they had found a partner who truly understood their mission to support fitness professionals with tools like custom training apps and integrated wearable tech solutions​.

Preserving Control and Culture

One of the primary concerns for any company entering into an acquisition is the potential loss of control. Would My PT Hub still be able to innovate? Could they maintain the autonomy that allowed them to support over 100,000 fitness professionals worldwide? PYXiS’s approach alleviated these fears by focusing on alignment rather than control.

‍

Agnew highlights this essential aspect: “...it wasn’t just all finance-driven. That certainly reinforced to us that an acquisition didn’t have to mean you lose control.” PYXiS’s emphasis on cultural and operational continuity ensured that My PT Hub would maintain its unique identity and continue its mission without interference​.

Choosing the Right Partner for Growth

For My PT Hub, the acquisition by PYXiS was not about compromise but about unlocking new opportunities for growth. PYXiS brought capital and a vision for scaling the business while staying true to its roots. This is critical for any business leader—choosing a partner that respects what makes the company unique and supports its continued success.

‍

Agnew reflects, “If you have the right partner, it’s the right decision for you as a business leader, the team around you, and most importantly, your customers.” This sentiment encapsulates the entire process. The right partner, like PYXiS, enables businesses to grow without sacrificing the qualities that make them stand out​.

A Partnership Built on Trust and Vision

Ultimately, the My PT Hub acquisition by PYXiS Software Group demonstrates that, with the right partner, acquisitions can be a win-win for everyone involved.PYXiS’s understanding of My PT Hub’s business, commitment to maintaining autonomy, and long-term vision for growth made this partnership a model of how acquisitions should be made.

Agnew’s experience offers a valuable lesson for businesses considering similar opportunities: the right acquisition doesn’t force you to change who you are—it empowers you to become even better.
