In summary
Problem
When Tim decided to move his training services online, he had very low interaction and engagement rates with his clients while having to deliver programs via spreadsheets and e-mails. He was unable to provide truly customized coaching to a large number of clients due to the restrictions of using so many different platforms to run his business.
Solution
Tim adopted TrueCoach to modernize and streamline his coaching business, allowing his coaches to prescribe exercise to more individuals in a much more customized way. They use TrueCoach’s connection and education abilities to coach more clients, and keep them engaged for longer.
Results
The implementation of TrueCoach into TD Athlete’s Edge has significantly improved client compliance and retention, increased the efficacy and efficiency of program creation and delivery, allowing Tim to grow his business while putting more time back in his day to do what he loves.
Overview
Tim DiFrancesco founded TD Athlete’s Edge in 2007 with the fundamental belief that all humans are athletes. Tim and his team help athletes get their bodies back and reach physical levels they never knew were possible, fuelled from the feeling Tim gets when a person realizes they aren’t doomed with injury or lack of strength.
TD Athletes Edge is a Strength & Conditioning facility focused on performance-based training, nutrition and recovery for athletes of all levels. TDAE exists to help athletes discover their edge by offering evidence-based training that provides clients with clarity, simplicity, guidance and community.
The Problem
When Tim made the strategic decision to transition his training services to the online realm, he encountered a significant challenge: low interaction and engagement rates among his clientele. Despite his best efforts to deliver personalized programs, the limitations of using spreadsheets and emails hindered his ability to provide the tailored coaching experience his clients deserved. Juggling multiple platforms to manage various aspects of his business further compounded the issue, leaving Tim feeling overwhelmed and unable to deliver the level of service he aspired to.
