A trial week
for new clients

Keep the trial short, define what it includes and agree the next step before it starts.

19 October 20262 min read

A trial lets a client see how you work before they commit. It also costs you time, so set its limits.

Decide what it includes

  • The onboarding questionnaire and a short call or message exchange.
  • One week of sessions.
  • One check-in with feedback.

Decide paid or free

A free trial brings more enquiries and more people who never start. A small fee filters for people who mean it. Choose one and keep to it.

Set the end date

Put the end date and the next step in your first message. For example, you will talk on day seven and agree whether to continue.

Use the week to learn

Note how the client logs, replies and responds to the sessions. These are the facts you need to decide if you are a fit.

Ask at the end

Ask what worked and what did not. Offer the next step clearly and give the client time to answer.

Count the cost

If trials take too much of your time, shorten them or charge for them. The onboarding checklist builder lists the steps to cover.

Where Trainersight fits

Trainersight keeps the trial week and feedback in one record. A client who continues starts with history.
