Independent trainers often undercharge because they compare themselves to gym-floor rates.

A better approach

Package outcomes (structure, accountability, progress tracking)
Offer 2–3 tiers (e.g., Standard, Premium, Premium+)
Set clear boundaries (cancellation policy, response times, inclusions)

Clients don’t buy minutes. They buy clarity, confidence, and results.

Start simple

One core offer (most popular)
One premium offer (more support)
One entry offer (limited availability)

Example tiers (adjust to your market)

Entry: 1 session/week + simple plan
Core: 2 sessions/week + progression + check‑ins
Premium: 2–3 sessions/week + faster feedback + priority scheduling

What to include to feel “professional”

Clear onboarding (intake, goal-setting, movement screen)
Written plan summary after session 1
A simple progress scorecard (attendance + 2–3 measures)
Policies: late cancel, refunds, reschedules, contact hours

Then refine based on what people actually choose.
