Selling memberships is about creating connections and guiding prospects toward their goals. A well-executed process begins with the initial phone call and transitions seamlessly into the in-studio experience. Here’s how you can make every step count.
The Power of the Phone Call
The phone call is your first opportunity to build trust and uncover what matters most to the prospect. A strong conversation includes:
Understanding Their Goals: Ask open-ended questions about their fitness journey and what they hope to achieve.
Highlighting Benefits: Tailor your pitch to emphasize how your studio can meet their needs, whether it’s community, accountability, or specialized classes.
Overcoming Objections: Address concerns like pricing or time commitment by framing your membership as an investment in their well-being.
Creating Urgency: Use limited-time offers or class availability to encourage action.
By the end of the call, aim to secure a commitment—whether that’s booking a class, scheduling a tour, or even signing up for a membership.
Completing the Sale In-Studio
Once the prospect arrives, your in-studio team takes over to deliver an exceptional experience. This includes:
Warm Welcome: Ensure the staff is informed and ready to greet them by name.
Class Experience: Make their first class engaging and personalized to leave a lasting impression.
Seamless Close: Build on the rapport from the phone call to finalize the membership. Answer any last-minute questions and emphasize the value they’ll gain.
