A follow-up schedule after a trial class

When to message parents after a trial, and what to say each time.

29 October 2026

Many parents who enjoy a trial still do not join, simply because life gets busy. A gentle, planned follow-up brings many of them back.

Same evening

Thank them, share one specific observation from the coach and recommend a batch. Include how to enrol.

Two days later

If they have not replied, send a short message answering the most likely question: fees, timings or how the first month works.

One week later

Mention a concrete reason to start now: a new batch starting, limited spots, or the next term. Keep it honest.

After that

Stop chasing. Add a note to try again at the start of the next season or holiday break.

Tips

  • Keep every message short and easy to reply to.
  • Never send the same text twice.
  • Track who you have followed up with, so nobody gets missed or messaged three times in one day.
