How to use these

Paste a prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot and swap the [brackets]. These are for running your business. Programmes, nutrition and anything touching a client's health are your professional call, and clients' health details should stay out of the chat.

Reply to an enquiry so they book

"Hi, how much are your sessions?"

Write a reply to someone asking about personal training. Thank them, ask two questions about their goal and experience, explain how I work: [your approach], give my prices: [prices], and offer a free [consultation / taster] with these times: [times]. Friendly, under 110 words.
Prompt 2

Build your packages

You sell single sessions and your income swings every month.
