Recognitions

Russ Preite, president and CEO of PLNTF Holdings, was recognized as a 2022 Georgia Titan 100, a program that acknowledges and spotlights Georgia’s top 100 CEOs and c-level executives. Qualified individuals, who are all leaders in their industry, are assessed based on criteria such as leadership, vision and passion. The recipients of this honor are featured in a Titan 100 book and online. Along with having the opportunity to participate in an awards ceremony, honorees can network with each other throughout the year.

In a moment of crisis, Planet Fitness Midwest’s West Chester, Ohio, team called on their training when a member needed them most. Team members at the club were faced with a medical emergency, but remained calm, used their CPR/AED training and saved the member’s life.

Olivia started her shift like normal by clocking in, checking in with her manager, walking the floor and cleaning. As she passed through the club, Olivia was made aware that a member had passed out. When Olivia arrived, she found the member unconscious without a pulse.

Taymax Vice President of Marketing Mike McDonough is reaching a major life milestone – he will be retiring after nearly a decade working for the company and years more in marketing.

“I joined the Taymax Group in 2014 after spending my prior years working on both the agency and client side of marketing, most extensively at Bose,” McDonough said, explaining that he had a broad background in areas like market research, direct marketing and media planning. For McDonough, it made sense to move to a franchise group like Taymax, which had aggressive growth plans.
