A week free trial. After that they have to pay or quit.
3) Free training can actually be the root cause of why a student doesnt come back. Lets face it, this sport is very physically demanding. If your classes are anything like mine, students are pouring sweat at the end of class and sheding pounds weekly (checkout the testamonial link to see some of my students StandAlone Mixed Martial Arts Academy Chico, CA ) Imagine how sore a neubie is after class. Imagine how they feel trying to punch and kick with an instructor breathing down their neck. End result, they feel like an idiot or the class was too hard and they dont come back. IMO the best way to avoid this is avoiding free training and even avoiding class passes if possible. If you can talk a new student into watching the class they will get all the visual stimuli they need to join without the workout. Once they join they are committed for a month and most stick it out. After three weeks of training, most of our students are showing 100% improvement from when they walked in the doors and we definatley let them know.
How come you don't have a website? they are pretty cheap and I can help you get it set up. I did the sites for my business plus the school that my sister and nephews train at.
PM me if you want to get it started, I can probably have it up and running by next sunday, within a week.
