Do you offer complementary training sessions? Why or why not?

I DO offer complimentary sessions to existing clients as a “thank you” for referrals. I periodically will also conduct a “free” clinic where I will do free assessments as a way to generate business.

I offer complimentary sessions to existing clients if they come workout on their birthday, for referrals, and for achieving fitness goals. It’s my way of thanking them for their business, their recommendations to family and friends, and for their success in achieving & living an active lifestyle.

While i will help someone in the moment, or give professional advice without consideration of a fee, I do not market complimentary sessions. The underlying connotation I find uncomfortable. I want clients to come to me because they bellieve I can help them, and are willing to bet their money on it, not because it’s a freebie, and they have no commitment.

I used to offer freebies and clients took advantage of it. Now i do offer One freebie once the client has bought a package of 10 sessions. They appreciate it better.

I offer a complimentary consultation similar to to Jocelyn just to discuss goals and health history, but the only free session I give go to my parents because they paid for my education so I figure they’ve put enough money into my career. 🙂
