Most people don’t start a business because they want to spend their day responding to emails and their night mentally managing their to-do list. But as a business grows, it’s common for the parts you love to be drowned out by admin work and hustle. Today we’ll talk about ways to get back your time, streamline your fitness biz and enjoy your business more.
There are way too many tools out there to justify scheduling over DM’s. Sure, it’s free to round up your class attendee list from various emails, texts, and DM’s. To respond to them all with your Venmo handle and class price. To send each of them the Zoom link for the class. And to cross your fingers that nobody cancels so you don’t have to deal with refunds. But how much is your time and mental capacity worth to you?
Whether you work with clients on a 1:1 basis or offer group classes, using a scheduling tool in your business simplifies and improves your process, your clients’ ease of booking, and your overall professionalism. There are a couple of different tools available for this.

Many entrepreneurs try to offer too much. Focus all your energy on one or two services and do them well. You don’t have to do more to make more. Instead, scale your business. Here are a few ideas how:

Even when you’re not teaching, planning, or working with clients, your brain is probably still working on overdrive. You suddenly remember that you need to check in with a client about a standard step in your workflow. You lie in bed at night running through your to-do list to make sure you didn’t lose track of anything. This is where a task and/or client management system comes in.
This has been a game-changer to help me mentally clock out when I want to. I first added a client management system to my toolbox in order to keep track of the clients I was working with at any given time. I can keep all their information in one place and track where we’re at in the process of working together. There are client management systems specific to fitness professionals (a common one I’ve heard of for personal trainers is TrueCoach).
Now, as I’m contracting out more tasks to other people, I’m beginning to incorporate a task management software (Asana) into my process. I can easily assign tasks within my list to others. It’s also great to use just for yourself. I want to make sure I deliver the same great experience to every client so I have a project template that includes all the same tasks. Some clients may differ in scope, but overall they have similar key tasks in the process to ensure they’re getting an experience that’s consistent with my brand.
Trying to figure it all out on your own is unproductive. It’s too easy to spend hours going in circles on the same task without any feedback. Join a group or course for support, resources, and guidance. So you can accomplish more in less time and have that time back for clients, friends, and yourself.
