This week we answer the below questions; 

Hopefully this makes sense. because you have to assess the needs and prescribe to a client what they need to build the service. 

On a landing page for people to buy online coaching for example Would you still mention what online coaching includes for example (check ins, nutritional guidance etc) when they might not actually need some of it? 

Once I've reviewed my pricing, do I increase my current f2f clients pricing, even if it's quite a bit higher? Or gradually bring it up? I'm unsure of what to do on this

How to up money (I know u just did this but pure struggling with it, feel like my clients will just leave me but then does that mean there probs not the right clients?) 

Would you recommend using a social media automation tool to allow you to create and schedule posts in advance?

With regards to pricing. I was only working in the gym for 3 weeks before they closed again, so I have been building my online coaching for the time being.

 How would you go about explaining the increase in price to a client who would like add in face-face coaching once the gyms re-open? 

If a client is reluctant to goal setting with regards to short, medium and long term and is only interested in the short term goals, would you still stick to setting it out in this format or would you go with the way in which they prefer? My consultation was before we spoke about onboarding/consults so I now know it might have been a lack of MI and the set up on my part.

Say you've gone through a consult, the convos gone well and client has bought into the plan of action, but their sole objection is price - how would you go about handling that? If you've recommended 3x a week for example and they could only afford 1x, would you then meet them there? If so, would doing that devalue what you've prescribed?

 I currently just ask my clients to pay me via bank transfer but I now want to start setting up monthly direct debits. My main worry is that it may prevent people from signing up as they may feel trapped or feel as if they don't want to commit to a direct debit. Any tips on overcoming this potential barrier.


If you get a cold lead message you would you ask them to fill in a pre-consult and book a call? I am unsure what to do and usually do a shorter version of a consult through messaging.How do I deal with clients that are so obsessed eating a takeaway most night? I have tried the home cook method but doesnt want to eat her own cooking.Best advice for starting the conversation on social that you're a coach and have 121 spots availble other than grid posts ?

Is having two levels to your 121 service a good idea or would you say start with one then build it out from there?

Hope this helps people out :-)
