Blog Black Friday

Are you a Black Friday shopper? Love all the deals? Personally, I LOVE shopping on Black Friday. I was never the “Get up at 5am” type, what about you? When I was younger, I would always go to Boscov’s with my grandma (and my mom). We’d pick out a new outfit for her to get me for Christmas. And who remembers the Sears catalog… I would circle everything! Those roller skates look amazing 😉

Black Friday looks a bit different now. Usually I’m checking for online bargains on Thanksgiving evening in the car as we drive back from my SIL, ordering practically all my clothes and fitness equipment for the year. And maybe some gifts 😉 My teens still insist on going to Kohls in person every year to hopefully finish their shopping, so that’s where you’ll find me today!

So as a small business owner, do I offer Black Friday sales? I’ve always thought that was a little hard to do in a service industry. But why not give it a try? This year, new clients can save on our FAN program.

First, what is the Upbeat FAN program? It’s a fun and supportive community of women who are working on Fitness. Accountability. And Nutrition. I’ve been in the fitness industry for over 30 years. I’ve worked with thousands of people over the years, and many of them feel like they are on a hamster wheel of crazy workouts and yoyo dieting. The longer I’ve been teaching and training, the more I realize that – although it’s maybe not “sexy” or exciting - slow and steady progress wins the race. I’ve designed this program to give clients the tools they need for long-term success. My clients are primarily women over 40 who could use some help fitting in fitness. Some find that they don’t have time for the gym, or find the gym intimidating. Some clients do have gym memberships, but don’t know what to do once they get there. Or they know strength training is important, but aren’t sure what is appropriate for them. OR maybe they know that eating fruits, veggies, and lean protein is important. But sometimes planning meals feels overwhelming. Why not get some help?

Here’s the program:

You will have a “Coach in your Pocket” – like having a trainer on retainer, for quick fitness or nutrition questions. Text a picture of a menu and we’ll choose a meal that fits your goals. Send a picture of a fitness machine if you don’t know how to use it.

You’ll be invited to our Private Facebook group – there will be quick lessons on setting goals, how to eat more veggies, getting your steps in, meal planning, weight training, etc. You’ll receive support from the members of the group.

You can participate in Virtual Small Group classes – Right now, we offer “Salsa and Strength,” and “Cardio Barre” classes. Two 30-minute classes each week with the FANgirls, and the recordings are posted in the group.

Two virtual Personal Training sessions – 30-minute check ins to learn new exercises, talk about healthy eating strategies, or whatever type of support you need.

The monthly investment for this program will be $199/month.
