Personal Trainer Gifts Money Cannot Buy – Testimonies and Referrals

by Noel Chelliah on Sunday, Dec 30, 2007

personal trainer giftsDuring this Holiday Season, or for a birthday, or simply to show some gratitude towards your Personal Trainer – have you ever wondered what are some good Personal Trainer Gifts you could get?

Finding the right gift doesn’t have to be hard, you just need to know where to look – and be glad that you’re reading this right now. :)

Of course, you could get him/her a fitness magazine subscription, workout attire, books on health and fitness, a pair of shoes, etc – but if you’re looking for something that your trainer would truly appreciate, and also happens to be something that money cannot buy, then read on…

It won’t matter if you’re on a tight budget, I believe that one of the best gifts you can give is a Referral or Testimonial of the Personal Trainer’s Worth, which can be done in several ways. For example, you could email their supervisor/club manager/boss and tell them how much and why you appreciate your trainer. You could offer to write a thank you letter to the club, which they can then use for the trainer’s benefit. Or hey, I just thought about this – you could even write an awesome review of your trainer, mail it to me (author [at] dailymuscle.com), and I’d gladly publish it on this site.

You can also use Word of Mouth – start talking about your trainer to your family and friends – tell them why he/she is unique. If you’ve got a friend who is looking for a trainer, or perhaps needs some fitness advice, etc – refer them to your trainer. Remember that a trainer’s goals are not solely to sell PT session, but they are also there to educate, motivate, dispel myths, and offer sound advice. Personal Trainer referral is a fantastic way of saying “Thank You” loud and clear.

Great Post! Those are all wonderful ideas….referrals and word of mouth are awesome gifts for personal trainers!

Being a personal trainer myself, the greatest reward I get, is hearing my clients tell me how great they feel and how thankful they are that I am helping them achieve results!
