✨ Why Drip-Feeding Resources Works

Imagine giving a new client every single PDF, workout, video, and link you have ever made on Day 1. Cue blank stares and ghosting.

Instead, spreading content out over time helps build a journey for your clients. They get the right information at the right time, and it significantly boosts retention by keeping them engaged.

📌 The Retention Advantage of Drip Feeding

One of the biggest benefits you get from drip feeding resources is client retention. By consistently delivering value, whether it is fresh workout ideas, nutrition tips, or mindset boosts, you stay on your clients’ radar. They are more likely to stick around because they always feel supported and informed.

When people see constant progress and new opportunities to learn, they keep coming back. This is especially true in the fitness world, where motivation can dip without consistent reinforcement. Drip feeding allows you to space out resources in a way that aligns with each client’s pace, reducing the chances of drop offs.

Pro tip: If you notice engagement dropping, consider adjusting the frequency or format of your resources. Small changes can dramatically improve how clients interact with your content.
