• A while back there was an email about being a PT back in the year 2000? Back then there weren't any social media like today but, PT's still ran their businesses. The early noughties looked like a wicked time to be alive (I was only 3 years old so I wouldn't know haha) What was it like being a PT, especially on a cruise ship back in the day? I found this very inspiring!

• I offer a small group coaching not just training service, that is as much if not more focused on what happens outside the gym. Other SGPT in the area is just training focused - this makes me appear pricey in comparison. I'm tempted to call this out, not calling out other specific businesses, but how the training will only get you so far and probably not where you want to be (especially for the women I want to work with). Thoughts and how aggressive would you go?

• I've got a consultation next week with someone who fits my demographic, but I think my new price might be an issue for them. I've had a few leavers this month so I could really do with the sign up - should I stand my ground and charge the new rate, or do I present a slightly lower price to ensure the sale?

• I want to post in the jd gym freelance PT page but Im struggling with what to write. I need to introduce myself as the members of this page are members of the gym I work in. Do I mention that Im looking for either male or female who’s available preferably during the days mon-fri, looking for long term weight loss or do I just post an introduction about me. If you guys were in my position how would you go about posting in this page ?
