INTRO

Digitalization has transformed the fitness industry, bringing benefits but also challenges for personal trainers like you. In this article, we'll look at the impact of digitalization on customer loyalty and give you tips for maintaining long-term relationships.

Without a doubt, digitalization offers numerous opportunities, but it also brings risks. To maintain customer loyalty and empower your business, take advantage of the advantages while reinforcing personal connections with them.

PROS

Advantages of digitization for you as a PT:

  1. Increased reach: Using digital platforms allows you to reach potential customers no matter where they are.
  2. Efficient planning: Digital tools such as Harbiz simplify the booking process, the scheduling of classes, and many other aspects, allowing you to better organize your schedule and that of your clients.
  3. Personalized training programs: Now, you have the technology to create tailor-made training plans, adapted to the individual needs of your customers, faster and easier than ever.
  4. Customer Management: Digital platforms simplify contact with your customers and improve communication, streamlining your workflow and allowing you to provide fast customer service.

CONS

Disadvantages of digitization for you as a PT:

  1. Competence: Digitalization has increased competition, as many fitness professionals now offer their services online. Which makes it more difficult to attract customers.
  2. Loss of personal connection: Digital communication can weaken personal connections with customers.

But don't worry. We have a way to overcome these and any inconvenience that digitalization may bring you ⤵️

Tips for building customer loyalty:

  1. Build a network of contacts: Create an online community where your customers can interact. This will promote social ties and your customers will be able to motivate each other.
  2. Use push notifications: An effective way to build customer loyalty is through the use of push notifications. You can send timely reminders of upcoming appointments, as well as share useful health information or training tips to keep your brand always present among your customers.
  3. Recurrent video calls: It's easy to get caught up in impersonal communication. That's why it's crucial to use these tools to your advantage and prioritize regular video calls or online meetings with your customers. These interactions help strengthen connections on a personal level and ensure that you're effectively meeting the needs of your customers.
  4. Adaptation and flexibility: Once again, make the most of the digital world and its tools to adapt to customer needs as much as you want or need, including flexibility in training schedules, equipment and locations.
