Yes, It Matters. Consumers DO Notice:

I would much prefer having an approved gym with good practices. There are so many problems with poor gym conduct. This would be a priority to me.

I think that businesses that join trade organizations are more likely to share and engage in best practices.

I like the small fitness place I go to and now I want to check if they're a part of a professional association.
