10-Session Bundle

Formula: Individual rate x 10 sessions x 0.85 (15% discount)

Example: $50/hr x 10 = $500 → Bundle price: $425

Season Training Plan

Formula: Estimate realistic usage and set clear booking windows.

Example: 25 sessions x $50 = $1,250 → training plan: $999

Recurring Practice Block

Formula: Discount modestly for reliable weekly demand.

Example: 8 sessions x $50 = $400 → recurring monthly block: $340

Team Rate

Formula: Group rate is already discounted. Give 10% off bulk purchase.

Example: Team rate $40/hr x 10 sessions → $360 (vs $400)

Sell in November (Off-Season)

Players plan for spring. Offer "Early Bird Special" for 20% off if purchased before Jan 1.

Payment Plans

$1,000 upfront is scary. Offer 3 monthly payments of $350 ($1,050 total—extra $50 for convenience).

Transferable Passes

Allow guest to share with teammate. Makes it easier to justify purchase.

Gift Passes

Market to parents for birthdays/holidays. "Give the gift of 10 hours of practice."

Referral Bonus

Season pass holder refers friend who also buys pass? Give them 2 free sessions.

Expiration Date

Clearly state: "Valid through [date]." Explain refund or extension rules before money changes hands.

Booking Priority

Optional perk: Pass holders get 48-hour advance booking vs 24 hours for regular guests.

Refund Rules

Write down when refunds, credits, or weather reschedules apply. Clear terms prevent disputes.

Transferability

Decide: Can guest give sessions to a friend? Recommendation: Yes, increases sales.

Blackout Dates

Reserve right to block peak times (e.g., Saturday mornings in April). Protects your highest-revenue slots.

Guests Don't Use All Sessions

Solution: Track usage clearly and send reminders before sessions expire. Good communication protects the relationship.

Booking Conflicts

Solution: Pass holders expect availability. Keep 30% of calendar open for them, even in peak times.

Underpricing

Solution: Run the numbers. If your pass is TOO cheap, you lose money vs individual bookings. Aim for 15-20% discount max.

Admin Overhead

Solution: Track manually in a simple spreadsheet and keep every confirmed session in CageList so your calendar stays accurate.

Offer a coach a discounted 10-session package for a recurring weekday practice block.

Reserve a consistent weekly slot for a family preparing for tryouts.
