Because most commercial gyms operate on a weekly or monthly rent basis, the pressure is always there to be turning over a certain number of clientele in order to reach this amount and ultimately make profit. This can cause experienced trainers to have to compromise their business model and force them into adding a higher number of clients. With Subtle’s pay per client method, experienced trainers do not need to compromise and can continue to train their select clientele in a unique and fully equipped space.

At the same time, part-time trainers can also benefit from this service in a similar way. We understand that some trainers are PT’s alongside other jobs. Some simply do it as a side hustle for some extra cash, or perhaps are part time for now with the intention of eventually going full time but are not quite there yet. Our pay per client option can bridge that gap between having a smaller number of clients and having enough to warrant going full time and paying full rent at a gym.
