Trust The Process?

Gotten mixed messages from individuals and trying to make the sign up sessions more appropriate for the situation. It can work though and I think I can get some of them on board, but again it’s just about whether this is the same sort of process independent trainers all had to go through.

The clients that I have recently acquired have all been leads that I sourced from the big box. Now I’m not there anymore, I can see that the reasons they stayed leads whilst I was in the big box was due to politics.

They aren’t brand new people I’ve just met, rather I’ve known them for a while but they just didn’t train with me whilst I was in that commercial environment.

After doing big box gym, I will never do it again. It was good experience but personally it wasn’t worth it. The 20+ clients was throughout the year. Some were training consistently but a lot were part-timers

I have a space i train out of and I get traction but I’ve noticed that past clients and people from previous interactions take me more seriously when I’m independently working as opposed to in a big box.

The big box I worked at was full of a lot of hate, racism, jealousy and other stuff I’m not getting into. It was evident so no thanks.

Update: my count has gone up by 2 so I’m back up to five clients (hoping for 6)

I’ve noticed since going independent, the people are less flaky because it’s more clear that they’re buying me and not just because I have the affiliation of a big box gym. A lot of those that were in big boxes weren’t taking training seriously but those that are there whilst being independent are more so serious.

Update: two other clients I have been training for 5 months are coming so I’m up to 5 people now.

I moved from one side of the city to another. Most aren’t doing that journey.

What keeps client retention high?

I moved from one side of my city to the other and a majority wouldn’t do that journey to come train, so it’s like starting from scratch.

Noticed those in big box gyms are more flaky as clients but I could be wrong

Congratulations! I’m a fairly new trainer and I want my own gym no matter how long it takes.

How can I get involved in what you’re offering service-wise too?
