The Active Life Podcast

Are you a coach who is still making 4/9th for a personal training session without explanation from your boss? Are you a gym owner paying your employees 4/9ths just because you were told that was the ratio to use?

If you are still choosing your training rates based on an arbitrary number, chances are it is costing you more time and energy to fill your time slots.

In this episode Larry and Dr. Sean breakdown the math to set your floor and ceiling price based on your geographic location. We talk about setting expiration dates and design packages to create urgency, retain clients and most importantly, make more money.

5:00 - Setting your price
10:00 - You have to pay to play
15:00 - Filling your schedule
20:00 - Cost to the gym
25:00 - Navigating the splits

Are you a coach or gym owner who is still trying to find that *magical number* of 1-on-1 sessions your new members need before going into a class setting? Are you afraid to tell a new member that they need 10, 15 or even 20 sessions with you prior to jumping into the group?

In our experience when we talk to most gym owners who are resistant to selling 1-on-1 sessions to a new client, the main concern is not that people don’t need it, but that they fear people won’t want or buy it. 

In today’s episode Larry and Dr. Sean give you a formula to implement in your gym today to determine a custom number of 1-on-1 sessions for each client. We discuss the questions to ask in order to reduce the likelihood of injury and how you can use these tools as a selling point to increase competence and create a safer training environment.

The tactics are the top of the pyramid for your business; tactics are the skill and the techniques to deliver beliefs, habits, communication and the service.

What service would you provide if money was not part of the equation, at all?

Most gyms didn’t start their business because they we’re looking to make money, yet most of the decisions that gyms make are guided by money. Services are created based on a dollar amount instead of being based on what a client needs to do in order to be successful and what that would cost.

Without understanding your beliefs, creating habits and communicating your message The Service doesn't really matter. If you haven’t listened to parts 1 through 3 of Business Building Hierarchy go back to episode 21. In this episode, Dr. Sean talks about designing your service, providing the right service for the individual and how you can create personalized results faster and more sustainably for the price you feel good about. At the end of this we want you to be confident about how to sell solutions, not time.
