Listen to this conversation between a fitness coach and a prospective client. Text: "- Hi, I just randomly found myself on your Instagram page and I liked your style. I saw that you work at different gyms and one of them is in my neighborhood. I am interested in working with you. I just have a few questions just to make sure you are a good fit for what I’m looking for.- Hi, yes, sure, I’d be happy to answer any question you have.- I’d like to know how you structure your workouts. Well, I usually interview my prospective client and listen to what they want. Do they want to gain weight or do they want to shed a few kilos? Do they want to work on their appearance or do they want to build strength and cardio? I also ask about their motivation. Did they choose to start working out or did the doctor send them to me? After that we have one session where I see what they can do. We try different exercises and see what they seem to enjoy the most. I think it is important to like a workout in order to stick to it. - I like that. Being a good listener is a big plus. This would be my first time with a PT so I will probably be a little bit lost. No worries at all. I work with beginners all the time. Can you provide references or testimonials from past clients who were beginners? Yes, sure, you can find some before and after photos on our Instagram. I can send you a link if you want. And, what is your availability for training sessions and do you offer any online options? Well, it depends on where you live. Where do you live? On Concord Street, near Fitness 360. Oh, I see. I am there on Thursdays and Fridays all day. I also do online classes on Sunday evenings. You can also find me at Maria’s Gym on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. It’s not exactly your neighborhood but it’s only a 15 minutes drive. I think we can workout something. How much do you charge for your services and do you offer any package options? Also, what is your cancellation policy? It’s 2000 DA/ hour or 16000 DA for 10 sessions and that saves you a bit of money. The online class is 200 DA. That’s good to know. Thank you for answering all my questions. I will think about all this and get back to you soon. Sounds great."
