CRM Questions for Personal Trainers
Can clients book PT sessions themselves?
Yes, share your booking link and clients can see your available slots and book sessions directly. Set your weekly availability and let Kabooly handle the scheduling.
How do I track individual client goals?
Add detailed notes to each client record including their goals, current fitness level, and progress. The activity timeline keeps a complete history so you always remember what you discussed.
Can I reduce no-shows with reminders?
You can send reminder emails using templates before sessions. While not fully automated, it's quick to send reminders to upcoming bookings and significantly reduces missed sessions.
How do other personal trainers use Kabooly?
PTs typically use Kabooly to track leads from social media or gym enquiries, book sessions, store client info and goals, send re-engagement emails to clients who haven't trained recently, and understand where their best clients come from.
Can I track where my leads come from?
Yes, lead attribution is built in. If someone finds you through Instagram, a Google search, or a referral, you can track which sources bring the clients who actually sign up and stick around.
Is there a mobile app?
Kabooly works great on mobile browsers, no app download needed. Check client details, add notes, and manage bookings between sessions from your phone.
Can I email past clients to bring them back?
Absolutely. Create a marketing list of clients who haven't booked recently, craft an email, and send it out. Re-engagement campaigns are one of the most effective ways to fill gaps in your schedule.
What's the pricing for a solo PT?
The Starter plan at £100/month gives you everything you need: up to 1,000 contacts, booking system, email campaigns, and lead tracking. Most solo PTs never outgrow this plan.
How a personal training business runs in Kabooly
Not a feature list. This is the setup most self employed PTs end up with.
Pipeline stages that match how clients start
Stages are yours to define. Most trainers land on something like Enquiry, Consultation Booked, Consultation Done, Block Booked, Training, and Lapsed. A name sitting in Consultation Done for a fortnight is a conversation you can see rather than one that quietly disappeared.
Goals and injuries on the contact record
Contacts carry tags and custom fields, so goal, training location, preferred times, and anything you have been told to work around all live on the client record. You can filter on them too, which matters the day you want to email every client training for a spring event.
An enquiry form that does the first reply for you
Build the form, embed it on your site or link it from your Instagram bio, and a submission creates the contact and can start an automation on its own. The enquiry is answered while you are still on the gym floor.
Consultations people book themselves
Set up booking types for a free consultation or a taster session, set your real availability, and publish the booking widget on your site. Kabooly sends the email reminder before the session automatically, which is the cheapest no show reduction there is.
Knowing which channel actually brings clients
UTM parameters are captured on form submissions, so the tracking and attribution reports show whether your clients came from search, social, a gym referral, or a client who recommended you. Most trainers are spending money on the wrong one.
Filling a quiet week without a phone list
Marketing lists, email templates and campaigns are built in, so the January intake email, the small group announcement, and the message to lapsed clients go out from the same place your client records live, using your own sending domain.
Three automations worth building in your first week
Each of these is a trigger, an optional wait, and an action. Nothing to code.
-
The enquiry answered before they message another trainer
When a form is submitted, send an email with your availability, your rates and what the first session involves, and create a task for yourself to call. People enquire with three trainers at once. The first useful reply usually wins.
-
The consultation that never turned into a block
When a deal moves to your Consultation Done stage, wait two days, then send a short email asking whether they want to start. Almost no trainer sends this, and it converts better than any ad you will run.
-
The client who stopped coming
When you tag a contact as Lapsed, wait four weeks, then send a genuine check in. Someone who trained with you last year is far easier to win back than a stranger is to win.
