Introduction

As a personal trainer, you know how competitive the fitness industry can be, especially around the holidays when potential clients are searching for the best deals. Offering smart, targeted discounts can be the perfect way to stand out, attract new clients, and boost revenue. In this blog, we’ll cover six discount pricing strategies that will help you increase sales and grow your fitness business. From seasonal promotions to loyalty rewards, these tips will help you capitalize on the upcoming holiday season and beyond. 

1. Seasonal Promotions & Holiday Discounts   

Holiday-themed promotions can create urgency and attract new clients eager to start their fitness journey. Limited-time offers around Black Friday, Cyber Monday, or New Year’s give clients a sense of urgency to sign up before the promotion ends.   

– Example: “20% off all fitness packages for New Year’s resolutions! Get started now and save big!” 

2. Bulk Discounts & Subscription Packages 

Offering discounts on bulk sessions or long-term subscriptions encourages clients to commit to a longer period, ensuring steady income for your business. By rewarding clients who book multiple sessions upfront, you reduce client churn and lock in revenue for months at a time. Be sure to explore TrueCoach’s Automated Payments capabilities to support recurring, discounted, and one-time sales!  

– Example: “Save 10% when you book 10 personal training sessions today.” 

3. Referral Discounts

Leverage your current clients by offering them discounts when they refer a friend. Not only will this help you gain new clients, but it also encourages client loyalty by rewarding their efforts. Learn how to turn existing customers into your biggest referral source here.  

– Example: “Refer a friend and get 15% off your next month of training!” 

4. Flash Sales & Time-Sensitive Offers  

Short-term discounts can push clients to make decisions quickly, driving sales and interest. Flash sales for 24 to 48 hours can build excitement and create an immediate surge in sign-ups. (Keep an eye out for a BIG sale coming from us shortly).  

– Example: “24-hour flash sale: Get 30% off all training packages! Act fast before it’s gone.” 

 

5. Loyalty Discounts & Rewards

Show your long-term clients some love by offering them loyalty discounts or rewards for sticking with your program. This fosters a sense of appreciation and encourages continued commitment.   

– Example: “Celebrate one year with us—get 20% off your next purchase as a thank you!” 

6. Bundle Discounts

Bundle your services to create a more comprehensive fitness offering. By combining personal training sessions with nutrition coaching or other services, you can increase the value for your clients while maximizing your revenue.   

– Example: “Sign up for personal training today and get a free nutrition consultation!”

Offering the right discount at the right time can significantly boost your sales and subscriptions, especially around the holiday season. These six strategies can help you build a loyal client base, increase client retention, and grow your fitness business. Ready to take your business to the next level?
