  • How to Persuade Anyone to Take Action (Without Being Pushy) with Michelle Bowden | Episode 551
    2025/10/30
    Persuasion expert Michelle Bowden, whose episode 83 on the Fitness Business Podcast ranks in the all-time top 20, is back to break down the science of influence and how to connect with every prospect and member. If you want to boost sales, retention, and team member engagement without resorting to manipulative tactics or "buyer's remorse," this episode is a must-listen. Michelle explains the difference between influence and authentic persuasion, introduces her four persuasion types, and gives practical, 1% tips you can implement today to become a stronger communicator and get more of what you want in life. Key highlights from the episode: - Persuasion vs. Influence and the Four Types: Michelle advocates for persuasion as the assertive approach to achieve lasting change, contrasting it with coercive influence which often leads to "buyer's remorse". Her system identifies four persuasion types—Wise Owl, Commanding Eagle, Friendly Brolga, and Captivating Peacock—to help tailor communication to the specific stakeholder. - Managing Objections with P.O.O.: Use the five-step "Pacing Out Objections" (POO) technique to handle common sales resistance. A crucial step is to stop using "but" and "however," which trigger a fight/flight response, and instead use joining words like "and" or "so" to bridge your argument. - The Power of Commitment and Position: To sell professionally without being pushy, leverage the Law of Commitment and Consistency by having the customer articulate and commit to their own goals, such as by completing their own goals form. For better listening, adopt Second or Third Position (focusing on their needs or an elevated view) rather than the self-indulgent First Position.

And whilst there are five main ways to influence, there's actually four ways to persuade." - Michelle Bowden "Stop saying 'but' and 'however'. You don't even know how often you say it. It is just not functional communication to say it." - Michelle Bowden "To win in the next 90 days by persuasion, start by caring about what the other person wants and then giving it to them." - Michelle Bowden Resources: - Become an FBP Insider on Patreon: https://patreon.com/FitnessBusinessPodcast - Fitness Business Podcast's LinkedIn Community: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/9878228/ - Mystery Shopping for Fitness Businesses: https://mysteryshoppingforfitnessbusinesses.com.au/ - Episode 83 of Fitness Business Podcast: https://fitnessbusinesspodcast.com/michelle-bowden-using-presentation-and-communication-skills-to-connect-with-your-clients-members-and-teams/ - Michelle Bowden's 7 Tips for Remembering People's Names - On Patreon only - https://www.patreon.com/posts/7-tips-for-names-141609461 Our Guest: Michelle Bowden, Director LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michellebowdenenterprises/ Website: http://www.michellebowden.com.au Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/michelle.bowden.1671 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_michellebowden/?hl=en Merch Sponsor: Be a Merch Sponsor - https://fitnessbusinesspodcast.com/merch/ REX Roundtables: Website: www.REXRoundtables.comEmail: Eddie@REXRoundtables.com Supplier: EGYM Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/egym_global/ EGYM Website: https://us.egym.com/en-us Dana Milkie's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dana-milkie-38ab47/ REX Roundtables Trusted Suppliers: Make sure to check out other REX Roundtables Trusted Suppliers: Atlantis Strength: made by and for those who are dedicated to shaping greatness. https://atlantisstrength.com/ ABC Fitness: provides gym management & software solutions. https://abcfitness.com/ Digital Revenue Systems: offering digital revenue opportunities for you. https://www.digitalrevsystems.com/ Centr Hyrox: The official equipment provider for Hyrox. https://shop.centr.com.au/collections/hyrox Covery: Wellness recovery franchise offering cutting-edge restorative services. https://www.thecovery.com/franchise Skip to the good part: 00:00 Welcome, Season Wrap-up, and Guest Introduction (Michelle Bowden) 02:00 Season Four Giveaway: How to Win a $100 Amazon Voucher 03:00 ...

  • Radical Customer Obsession: Unlocking Growth, Loyalty, and Advocacy with Amanda Stevens | Episode 550
    2025/10/16
    Discover the surprising power of "Radical Customer Obsession" with author and expert Amanda Stevens. She explains that in a digitally distracted world, the key to success is getting to the heart of what your customers really need, not just what they tell you. From understanding the "Inner Circle" dynamic of female members to learning from other industries, this episode is packed with brilliant insights on how to create a "sticky" business that defies market pressures and turns customers into disciples. Key highlights from the episode: - Know Your Customer Intimately: Get "insanely curious" about your members, because the person who joined your gym isn't the same person they are today. - The Power of the Inner Circle: For female members, the "inner circle" of 2-3 friends is a primary source of information. Gaining a higher market share of these circles can increase member loyalty and tenure. - High-Tech, High-Touch: The future of the customer experience in the fitness industry will exist at the intersection of high tech and high touch, where you leverage technology while focusing on human moments that algorithms can't compete with.
