What accessories help you give the best experience to your clients?
Hi everyone!
After months of being a silent bystander I'm finally making my first post =-)
I've been working as a PT now for just over 7 months and the growth in my client base has hit somewhat of a plateau. I want to invest in some accessories/ equipment to use with my clients in the gym to help differentiate myself from the other PTs there.
I'm looking for something that will really add value for my clients but comes in under the $300 range. So my question to you all is what accessories/ equipment help you give a better experience to your clients?
Thanks for your time!

Putting a band aid on a gunshot wound is not the level of attention you should be focused on. What ever product you invest in will only promote interest in those who use it on for the first few uses, then much like all your other equipment, it will grow common. Novelties to growth stagnation are not the cure. You need to focus your energy on client acquisition strategies.

I guess he didn't really want help after all.

I think he remembered how nice it was just being a silent bystander.

Ronin can be a bit rougher than necessary, in my view, but honestly potential clients rejecting you, current clients doing no-shows, or talking up how keen they are and then not buying the next pack of sessions, or eating sht food outside sessions, potential employers knocking you back, managers giving you a hard time about your training methods, and so on and so forth - all that's far rougher.

If you think I'm rough here, you should have seen me when I ran my training clinics and personal clients. Everyone either got results or they would get a tongue lashing, shamed and booted out of my clinics. Failure and complacency can be contagious. The anger that boils up when someone was unintentionally affecting other, hard working clients with their own inability or unwillingness to execute a professional fitness strategy was not something I was ever good at concealing.
But that reputation I earned is what brought me 90% of my clients. I was very successful. It enabled me to retire at age 40.To succeed at doing what you love, you often must do many things you hate.
