Charging members for your walking group is up to you. Some people choose not to charge people at all and to host a free walking group open to all members. Others decide not to charge people for the first few months until they grow a strong following and then to begin charging per training. Still, other trainers launch a walking group as their main or supplemental source of income and charge members from the beginning. Whether you choose to host a walking group for money or not, is up to you!
To determine how much to charge for your walking training services, we recommend you research the relevant market in your local area. Search how much gyms, yoga studios and personal fitness trainers are charging for their services. You can always change your fees and introduce discounts and promotions to incentivize new members. Once you sign up, you will have the support of a WEWALK professional to help you decide the cost structure that works best for you.
There is no one type of WEWALK walking trainer. Each walking trainer decides the style and details of their own group – when to meet, where to meet and how often to train. Walking trainers enjoy the freedom of choosing walking styles that are exciting to them, whether power walking, stroller strolls or nordic walking. What bonds all WEWALK walking trainers is their shared love for walking and their passion helping others reach their fitness goals.
Once you sign up to be a WEWALK walking trainer, you can choose the where & when of your own group. The timing, frequency and location of your walking trainings is up to your discretion: chose the time and place that works best for you!
Some WEWALK walking trainers launch a group with one approach, such as sunrise walks, and adjust overtime to lunchtime strolls based on what worked best for their group members. The timing and location are flexible and allow you to be creative with your own group. A WEWALK professional will be available to support you the decision making process and help you choose a format that works best for you.
