Sales and new client referrals are critical to your gym, training/coaching service or dojo.
Here are some simple, effective and easy-to-implement strategies to get more clients now.
You may be wondering how you are going to do MMA training outdoors since you often use a mat.
Well, you are in a for a pleasant surprise. You have options.
You’ve likely seen the video of fighters in Brazil training in the surf on famous beaches in Rio. There’s nothing like trying to do a takedown in 2 feet of water. Of course, you need to be careful, and everyone needs to be respectful to stay safe.
The Israeli Army (IDF) trains in Krav Maga. Because of the nature of their martial arts training, they often train on the beach, in the desert, in the water and even urban environments to better prepare them for any scenario.
We’re sure you are familiar with other examples.
Here are some simple examples of how you can train outdoors a couple times a month to overcome any chance of boredom in the gym:
One of the most common questions we get from people just like you is this… “How will I get clients once I get certified?”
Getting clients is not difficult. The only reason people ever have a challenge is one of two things; they either don’t try, or they never do any of the following strategies on a regular basis.
Once you get a base of clients, it gets easier and easier to stay busy training and coaching people.
Here’s how you get an endless stream of clients:
You could always benefit from more members, students, and clients.
Your local community is filled with opportunities to build quality relationships so you can increase your student numbers.
Yes, this is different than running a Facebook ad or making a YouTube video. We aren’t saying you should stop doing that. It’s just important to be active in your community as well to maximize the relationship opportunities.
Here are some ideas you can implement immediately:
You may be missing out on the biggest market for your coaching services.
If you’ve been focused on only elite athletes, you are leaving so much on the table.
Working with elite athletes is exciting and rewarding. And, you also know that they are often broke on the way up. They can barely pay for your services.
On the other hand, someone who likely has more education, a more stable career, and just wants a fun martial arts fitness workout can more easily hire you and keep using your services for a long time.
And, they are going to be much easier to train. You will do less work, and still have a lot of fun. They are thrilled. Everyone wins.
Let’s be honest, you could use some help with your flexibility.
What if you could do rubber guard like BJ Penn?
What if you had the hip dexterity to do kick like Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson?
What if your back was just more flexible, so it didn’t hurt so much?
What if your shoulders had more mobility so you didn’t tap so fast on an Americana or Kimura?
What if you could finally do the splits?
What if you just felt better before you went to sleep each night?
