Ready to get back to basics?

In this blog post I want to talk about the basics of growing a coaching business.

I know it can sometimes feel overwhelming when you think about all the things you need to do.

But building a coaching business comes down to these 3 main categories...

  1. 1
    Attract people who have the potential to be your ideal clients
  2. 2
    Turn those potential ideal clients into actual clients
  3. 3
    Deliver value to your clients

On the surface, it's really that simple.

If you're not at the place of having all the clients you want, then every activity you do in your business should focus on one of these areas.

Let's go a bit deeper into each...

Attract people who have the potential to be your ideal clients

In order for you to attract people who have the potential to be your ideal clients, you need to know who your ideal clients are and where they hang out.

You then have to do things that help you stand out so that they pay attention to who you are and what you have to say.

Turn those potential ideal clients into actual clients

In order to turn your potential ideal clients into actual clients, you need to understand them deeply — their pain, hopes, dreams, goals, etc.

And you need your messages to them—content marketing, social media, speeches, etc., etc.— to convey that not only do you get them, but you can help them.

Deliver value to your clients

In order to deliver value to your clients and help them get to the other side of the transformation they want, you need to know how. You need to have a solid and flexible process you take your clients through. One you have confidence in.

Obviously, there's a bit more to each area, but as you work on your business, check-in to see if what you're working on fits in one of these areas.

If it doesn't, you may want to rethink it.

And if you want to save time and money with the entire process, I invite you to learn more about The 1-1 Coaches Accelerator.

I designed it to save coaches both time and money. So they know exactly what they should be working on to build their businesses. And they don't waste time doing the things that won't move them forward.

Do you want a hobby or a business?

Sometimes when I talk to coaches, they tell me they’re trying to grow their coaching business.But then when we dig into what they’re doing on a weekly basis…It becomes clear that what they’re really doing is creating an expensive hobby for themselves.It usually looks something like this… (based on my first few years in “business”

How do you want to sell?

Several years ago, I signed up for a course on selling from a coach who promised we could increase our conversion rates by 50%. That would be amazing if it were true. But it wasn’t.At least for me. About every 10 minutes in the course, I thought, “There’s NO WAY I’m doing that.”Her approach was hard selling at

Tired of selling yourself as a coach?

Recently I set the record straight that growing a business can be simple, but not always easy. And like many things that are difficult, it’s worth it. Because on the other side of this challenge is a more confident and more capable you. And a life where you make good money doing meaningful work that you love. Now to get there,

What the heck is a coaching framework?

Yesterday a gal on Instagram sent me a DM after she’d read one of my posts… “What the heck is a coaching framework?” Great question! If you’ve been around for awhile, you’ve probably heard me mention how important it is to have your own proprietary, unique to you coaching framework. But… what exactly is it? Simply put, a Coaching Framework

Setting the record straight

A few days ago, I was talking with a friend who’s been struggling to find new clients. She’s a very smart and accomplished woman. She’d led a very successful career working her way up the ladder in a well-known Fortune 500 company. And then she left her corporate career to go off on her own and start
