Hi Jason,

I give gift cards and in some occasions other types of gifts to my clients. It’s a way of showing my appreciation to them for having me as trainer or if it’s their birthday or if they reached their goals.

Best,
Harris

Yes! Your gifts do not have to cost you money“hear me out.

Network with a massage therapist or chiropractor or stylist- whichever is most applicable to your client base. Some gyms have these professionals in house. Trade with them, let’s say, 5 gift vouchers for a 30 minute session with you in exchange for the same from them.
Every year my core clients received 30 minute massages as their gift. Yes it will cost you time to honor your vouchers traded, but every year I also gained a few new clients that signed on after their complimentary session. And my massage therapist gained a few of my clients. Our clients joked we were running a conspiracy- I’d wind them up and he’d wind them down only to be repeated over and over again.

I have also rewarded groups by paying their entry fees to races. As far as commerical holidays, I have a bit of a unique view and enjoy finding ways to celebrate those I love while staying true to myself.

Hope to have helped!

Hello Jason,
Absolutely, birthday-holiday/s are a few. It can be as simple as a card/$gift card.

I posted a similar question a while back:

Yes, for special events or when big milestones have been reached. As LaRue said, some of my clients have become more like family over the years.

Yes, I give presents (and receive them) from some of my longstanding clients who, over time, have become more like family to me. I celebrate graduations (of my young clients), birthdays, and other special events.
