Professional Voicemail Greetings for Personal Trainers
As a personal trainer, you’re often spotting a lift, demoing a movement, or coaching form on a noisy gym floor—so you can’t safely pick up every call. A strong voicemail greeting saves the lead, sets expectations, and gets the caller to leave the right details so you can book a $50–$150 session or a $400–$1,200 package fast.
Standard Business Hours (Training Sessions in Progress)
Use during your normal hours when you’re usually with clients and can’t answer safely.
“Hi, you’ve reached [Your Name]—personal trainer at [Gym/Studio Name]. I’m coaching a session right now, so I can’t pick up while I’m on the floor. Please leave your name, number, and what you’re looking for—1-on-1 training, online coaching, or a 10-session package. If you’re calling to book, tell me your best two times to train (like mornings, lunch, or after work). I’ll call you back within [X hours/today by 6 PM].”
Tips for this scenario
- -Say “I’m coaching a session” so callers understand you’re not ignoring them—you’re working and it’s safety-related.
- -Ask for “best two times to train” so you can book faster without phone tag.
- -Mention a few options (single session, package, online coaching) to prompt a clear message and match your pricing ($50–$150/session, $400–$1,200/10-pack, $100–$300/mo online).
