It took me 20+ minutes to watch this 10-minute video due to my constant rewinding and note-taking. Thank you much for the compass in the chaos! This page is a goldmine, friends!
I will be honest this video provided much more than I was expecting. I was stuck and didn't know what steps to take to improve my business. This video definitely gave me some ideas, thank you very much!
Thank you! We’ll definitely be covering more small business things in general going forward and marketing will be one of the main things. What in particular do you want to see?
Hey Jeff I know this isn’t on the topic but I was wondering this might sound ridiculous or something I just started and wanted to come to u because ur a expert and also a nice guy but the question is “How do you get personal trainers to get clients and how much should You charge trainers to help u get clients?” Also I honestly love ur videos Jeff I can’t wait to see more you inspire me to do this type of career thanks again 👍🔥
Hi thanks for your support! For personal trainers to get clients, they need to market themselves effectively, network and work on developing a reputable brand. We don’t charge trainers to help get clients however, we do offer a sign-on bonus/commission if a trainer brings a client in for a training package. This depends on the package price and how much you pay your trainer, so it would depend on a few factors. Hopefully that answered your question!
Can you make a video on how to make a RU-vid video like the way you have I'm heading towards making bodybuilding type videos explaining exercises & working out.
I’ll definitely be covering this at some point relatively soon. I plan on making more general small business videos going forward and that one will definitely be one of them.
Great video! I noticed that Alexis has a interest form for potential clients on her IG profile. Can you guys do a tutorial or explain how to set something like that up? And how that process works after the form is filled out. Anyways thanks for all the helpful content!
We will definitely consider making a video on it! Until then though, I (Alexis) set mine up on Google forms. I ask some questions I would ask during a consultation call just to gauge interest and get some basic information on the person before talking to them. When the form is submitted, I get an email, read through the intake then send the person an email describing a little bit about what we do and how we do it, how I could help them with their specific goals and invite them to get on a zoom or phone call with me. Then we have more of a formal consultation chat once we get on a zoom/phone call :)
@@SortaHealthyTrainerEducation okay got it! Thanks a ton!! Both you guys are seriously awesome. Ive binged on hours of your content these past few weeks. Thanks for all the insight 🙏🏽
Do you guys have a service where you coach us trainers? I’ve been doing this for 2 years now and wanna open my own PT studio and would love to pay for guidance and coaching!
We do actually offer a mentorship program! If it’s something that you’re interested in email me at cfsouthington@commencefitness.com and we’ll set up a time to chat!
This is super helpful! Would appreciate some advice from y'all: I have a decent IG following as a result of being an ambassador for a couple of nutrition companies. The account is also my personal one, but the bulk of my content is fitness-related. Do you think it would be best to use this account for my personal training content and promotion once certified? I toyed with the idea of making a separate account for my PT services and using my existing account to direct followers there, but I realize that would likely result in a much smaller audience.
For right now at least, I would keep the account you have and just focus on gearing your content creation towards whoever you want to train/fitness. It will definitely be helpful to already have an audience! What’s your account? We’ll follow you!
Thanks for your support! I would post informational posts including infographics, blog posts and other things that may be relevant to your ideal clients. You can share your business page on your personal page, and on local town Fb pages to increase viewership.
When starting out do you recommend having clients sign a contract committing to a certain timeframe? If so, do you have a reference for this kind of contract? Thanks in advance for your help!
Yes, always have clients sign a contract committing to a certain time frame or amount of sessions. We have an example of that here under “pricing sheet” www.sortahealthytrainered.com/freepersonaltrainingforms
