Still selling PT sessions? That might be the reason you’re not getting clients.

In this episode, we dig into the biggest mistake personal trainers make when trying to grow — and what to do instead. If you want to coach smarter, get better results for your clients, and actually build a business that works long-term… this one’s for you.

💡 From pricing mistakes and accountability, to why discounting can backfire — we’re covering the real stuff no one teaches you when you qualify.

Timestamps – Skip to What You Need

00:00 The mistake that’s stopping you getting clients

00:37 Why “selling sessions” doesn’t cut it

02:05 The price trap (and how it drags you down)

03:09 Sell outcomes, not time

04:01 What clients are really paying you for

06:01 Accountability: the missing link

07:32 Niche down — stop trying to coach everyone

08:46 Stop selling 45 minutes — sell transformation

09:16 Why you don’t need slick sales scripts

10:29 Don’t jump in too quick — just listen

10:37 Value > Discounts (seriously)

13:02 Why freebies don’t work

14:04 That time I tried to help a mate for free… (spoiler: it backfired)

15:26 Follow up your leads — don’t ghost them

17:11 Final word: you’re not selling sessions, you’re selling you

17:39 Shameless plug – our Bulletproof Business Course
