Write text that attracts customers to the gym

Détaillé

Your text is your sales coach. Well written, it attracts customers, fills courses and reduces the time spent convincing. Here's a simple method, ready-to-use templates, and a concrete testing plan to convert more leads. If you want to save time, centralize your offers, reservations and messages on EKKLO.

1) Choose the angle that says “it’s for me”

Precisely identify the person

  • Main objective: weight loss, performance, well-being.
  • Context: recovery after injury, lack of time, stress.
  • Hinders: fear of judgment, price, lack of discipline.

Tip: start your texts with “For [person] who [context], who wants [objective], without [brake]”.

Example: “For busy mothers who want to get back in shape without spend hours. »

To refine your target, see how find your sports coach niche and focus your message.

P3 angle formula (Promise + Proof + Period)

  • Promise: clear result.
  • Proof: concrete element which reassures.
  • Period: realistic deadline.

Examples:

  • “-6 to -8 kg in 12 weeks, certified support, sessions 45 min. »
  • « 3 more pull-ups in 30 days, video technical follow-up. »

What a good angle prevents

  • Vague: “Get in shape. »
  • Generic: “For everyone and for everything. »
  • Unrealistic: “Total transformation in 10 days. »

2) The 7-block structure that converts

Use these blocks on your site, your registration pages or your posts.

1. Title that promises a clear benefit

Formula: Action verb + result + deadline/condition.

  • “Tone the whole body in 2 sessions/week”
  • “Lose 5 kg without long cardio”

2. Tagline that proves you understand

  • “Tired of starting again every Monday? We simplify: 45 min, 3 times/week, program ready. »
  • “No complicated machines, no hassle. A coach, a plan, results. »

3. Social proofs and reassuring elements

  • Numerical testimonials: “-7.2 kg in 11 weeks”
  • Opinion: “4.8/5 out of 132 returns”
  • Before/after, diplomas, local partners.

Model: “92% of members achieve their goal at 3 months. »

4. Clear and readable offer

Present 1 flagship offer + options.

  • Flagship offer: “12-week program - 2 coachings/week + nutrition plan + WhatsApp monitoring”
  • Options: “Solo / Duo / Small group (4 people)”

Display the price and value: “Value €890, launch €690. »

5. Handling objections

  • Time: “45 min sessions, slots 7 a.m.-9 p.m. »
  • Price: “Payment in 3 installments, 14-day guarantee. »
  • Motivation: “Weekly monitoring, backup plan if session missed. »

6. High positive friction call to action (CTA)

  • "Book your free 20 min assessment"
  • "Try a trial session this week"
  • "Request your 7-day plan"

Make the action concrete: deadline + what happens next.

7. Postscript that crystallizes the urgency

  • "8 places remaining this month"
  • "Launch price until Sunday"

3) Words that sell without overselling

Talk benefits, not characteristics

  • Feature: “3 HIIT sessions/week”
  • Benefit: “Burn calories in 30 minutes, even if you're just starting out”

Formula: Feature → therefore → benefit.

Encrypt as much as possible

  • Time frame: 4, 8 or 12 weeks.
  • Frequency: 2 to 3 sessions/week.
  • Indicators: weight, cm of waist circumference, number of repetitions.

Examples:

  • “-4 to -6 cm in size in 6 weeks”
  • “ +20% squat load in 8 weeks”

Useful (and safe) emotions

  • Relief: “no more scattering”
  • Pride: “you’re finally keeping up the pace”
  • Safety: “protocol validated by a qualified coach »

Simple and active vocabulary

  • Prefer: “Start”, “Test”, “Book”
  • Avoid: “Optimize”, “implement”, “architecture”

4) Local SEO: be seen by the right people
