Since ACE is collecting the money for my personal training services, where does that money go?
ACE has agreed to provide AARP members with discounted personal training services provided by you, the ACE-certified personal trainer. Our hope is that you will see the benefits of increased income and additional clients who need and want your services. The discount is 10, 12 and 15% off industry standard rates (i.e., $55 or $45) depending upon region and training package. An additional 10% is deducted from the training fee and split between AARP (96% for a co-op marketing fund to promote your services to AARP members) and ACE (4% to defray credit card transaction fees and payment processing costs through ADP). EXAMPLE An AARP member in California will pay $396 for a 4-week personal training package. This is 10% off the industry standard price of $440 ($55/session). The ACE personal trainer will receive $352 in revenue. The $44 difference is split between AARP and ACE. AARP receives $42.24 (to go into a co-op marketing fund to promote your services to their members) and ACE receives $1
