PushPress Gets $500K Debt Funding

El Segundo-based PushPress, a startup which develops a gym billing and business management platform, has raised $500,000 in a debt round of funding, which the company says it is using to expand its team. The startup, led by CEO Dan Uyemura, also says it is about to launch a free version of its gym management platform which it says helps startup, smaller gyms, and location-less trainers get their businesses ramped up without the high fixed cost of a software system. According to Uyemura, its entire key staff and front end team are gym owners. Uyemura says that, unlike competitors who are "busy raising rates" and "squeezing the SMB gym space", it wants to help gyms by giving them some fixed cost relief.
