As people commit to better health and fitness in their New Year’s Resolutions, many trainers are quickly inundated with new clients. To optimize these opportunities, trainers must quickly apply techniques to appeal and relate to clients. To help trainers with this sometimes daunting task, PTontheNet is dedicating the month of January to the subject of New Client Orientation.
As Annette Lang our featured author for January points out in Creating a Great Personal Training Experience, “Creating a great experience for your client requires more than simply developing an exercise program; it requires you to relate to this person on a whole other level, from the very first fitness assessment through to each individual session.” Further, don’t overlook the importance of the initial consultation, “Actively listening to clients is a crucial aspect of successful consultation. It gives the impression you are genuinely interested in the potential client's situation and helps you tailor answers to meet their needs specifically,” suggest Justin Price and Mary Bratcher in their new piece, How to Turn Prospective Clients into Paying Clients: The Art of Initial Consultations.
There are many more New Client Orientation tips to help guide you through this busy month already posted on PTontheNet. Here′s a summary-to-date:
