NEW YEAR, NEW YOU!

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU

As we head into the new year, Joe wanted to discuss the increase in business due to New Years Day resolutions. With the new year comes a natural increase in return and new clients, but it is important to understand that many of these clients will not remain consistent in their training beyond a few months. Therefore, it is important to make sure you maximize earnings from your clients.

Another reality is that people will make resolutions but become frustrated when they do not happen fast enough, which plays a big part in the reason they stop training. However, goals are a good thing to have and if you can help your clients change their resolutions to something more realistic, it can increase the amount of clients who remain consistent.

The SMART goals model is a good way to help clients set more achievable goals.

SMART stands for:

• Specific
• Measurable
• Achiveable
• Realistic
• Timely

Using this as a guideline to set goals is a good way to ensure you create goals that you can actually reach.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Welcome

Welcome to my blog! Every week I will be posting info, tips, and tricks that I learn from Joe during my internship.

This week as we head into Christmas, Joe shared with me information about training during the holidays. First, overall business slows down during this time period and it's important to save money in preparation. Next, it is a very good time of year to offer promotions and discounts to stir up more business as the new year approaches. Finally, Joe shared with me a list of holiday health tips that he shares with his adult clients.

• Train before holiday parties or dinners.
• Reduce meals or fast until the big event of the day (save your calories).
• Drink plenty of water and eat protein and vegetables before starches and desserts. 

This is just a sample of what this blog has to offer so stick around for more!
