But this Mr. Jacob didn’t say a word, directly buying thirty classes, truly generous and straightforward.
“Mr. Jacob, if you buy thirty classes, I can give you five free classes.”
Seeing Jacob’s generosity, Layla wasn’t stingy and directly gave him five free classes.
“By the way, Mr. Jacob, do you have a membership card for our gym?” Layla asked again.
“No.” Jacob shook his head.
“Then you need to get a membership card; the annual card is 3888 dollars.”
“Okay.”
Jacob nodded. The fitness center was large, with five floors, and a 3888 dollar annual card wasn’t expensive.
“Mr. Jacob, let’s go get the card!”
Seeing Jacob’s continued generosity, Layla was overjoyed. Thirty private coaching classes plus an annual card, the total amount was already over 10,000 dollars. The commission rate for coaches selling classes wasn’t fixed; the more they sold, the higher the commission rate.
And for this deal with Jacob, she could get at least over 2000 dollars in commission, maybe even over 3000 dollars.
At the front desk.
“Lilian, they’re back.”
Monica saw Layla and Jacob returning and nudged Lilian, who was sending a WhatsApp message.
“I guess that takeout delivery guy was scared off by our gym’s annual card price.”
“After all, it’s half a month’s salary for him!”
Lilian smiled, feeling secretly pleased.
“I wonder what he’s thinking. Doesn’t delivering takeout provide enough exercise?”
Monica whispered sarcastic remarks. She was a fence-sitter, gossiping about Layla with Lilian but also gossiping about Lilian with Layla. There are many such people in real life.
“Who knows what they were thinking, maybe they were attracted by our female coach in the quick sound.”
“At this age, they should really weigh their worth. A woman like Layla won’t let you touch her without spending at least a hundred thousand.” Lilian scoffed disdainfully.
Nowadays, almost every business has its own short video account. This GetFit Fitness Center has two accounts on Quick Sound, one dedicated to posting videos of hot female coaches and members to attract male customers, while the other features handsome, muscular male coaches to attract female customers.
This promotional model works quite well, and every weekend, the number of visitors naturally surges.
“Monica, help me open a yearly membership.”
Just as the two finished their complaints, Layla strode confidently to the front desk.
“Ah?”
“Opening a yearly membership?”
Monica was taken aback, her subconscious had already prepared for this delivery guy to leave in defeat.
But it seemed the script wasn’t going as she and Lilian had predicted.
“Wait, are you really opening a yearly membership?”
Lilian was also confused; she had intended to trick Layla, but it turned into a windfall instead.
The commission for a yearly membership is 15%, which means she just gave Layla nearly six hundred dollars for free, which felt even worse than losing six hundred dollars.
“Monica, after you finish the card, please bring it to the lounge, thank you.”
Layla ignored Lilian. She had a hunch that the reason the other person asked her to attend to Jacob was that they probably didn’t have much spending power; otherwise, Lilian wouldn’t have kindly passed them on to her.
However, her philosophy was not to give up on any customer. Since the person could walk into the fitness center, it indicated they had the willingness to spend, so Layla took her reception duties seriously.
As a result, she indeed had unexpected gains.
“Mr. Jacob, this way, please, let’s go to the lounge to sign the contract.”
Layla led Jacob into the adjacent lounge, which had a tea table and a coffee machine serving the function of a refreshment area.
“Mr. Jacob, would you like something to drink?”
“Let’s have tea.”
Jacob sat down by the tea table. When he was a boss, he also had a tea table in his office. Although he only had a superficial understanding of tea culture, the process of brewing and tasting tea was indeed quite enriching.
Especially as he got a bit older, he enjoyed this feeling even more.
Layla skillfully brewed a pot of tea for Jacob and poured half a cup for him.
“Mr. Jacob, let’s add each other on WhatsApp first, then I’ll send you a meal plan. Just follow the meal plan and work out with me every day. You have a large base, so losing twenty pounds in the first month shouldn’t be a problem, but it will slow down after that.”
Layla was a graduate of Coastville Sports College. She had been working part-time as a fitness coach during college, and after graduation, she didn’t find a suitable job and became a full-time fitness coach. She had some insights into weight loss.
Jacob nodded slightly; his goal was to lose 41 pounds, which was clearly not a task that could be completed in the short term.
