What percentage of personal training is private (PT does not share revenue with gym) and how much is through the gym themselves?
I am interested to understand how much of the personal training market is private – where the personal trainer themselves take 90% of the fee paid by the client. And how much is generated from the gym themselves – therefore where the PT has to split the value of the session with them gym. I am interested in how this works in practice and where the PT’s would administer their private sessions.
Hi Tim,
On your follow up question here is what I think:
-If you work for a gym and you sell PT sessions to a member/client, then you will receive the % of the sale that belongs to you and it is stated in the contract you have with the gym (if you are an employee there). If you want to receive the full amount, I would suggest for you to train this client away from the gym. The same goes if you are renting space form that location/gym. You should be able to keep the full amount unless the deal you have with them states otherwise.
Best,
Harris
