    Your own ethical behavior can make or break your reputation.
  2. Ethics refers to individual and group decisions regarding what is right or wrong behavior.
  3. When you act ethically, it builds customer loyalty to your products and services.
  4. Where ethical issues can arise:
    1. Product: Verify the safety or performance of what is promised.
    2. Price: Be honest when determining price. Do not set prices based solely on what your client is willing to pay.
    3. Promotion: Do not encourage clients to purchase more than they need or can afford.
    4. Placement: Have the product or services available as promised.

    Creating quality.
    1. Get to know your clients-not just the information gathered during their fitness assessments. Get to know them as a person.
    2. Listen to your clients. You have two ears and one mouth! Understand what they are feeling and needing to help you create the experience they desire and provide the best service.
    3. Empathize with your clients. Don't judge or try to fix everything. Sometimes people just want to be listened to and understood.
    4. Make every session memorable.
