Coaching Success Radio

If you would have asked me 2 years ago, "What business are you in?" I would have said "I'm in the coaching business."   The longer in this game, the more I'm realizing I'm actually NOT in the coaching business... I'm in the SUCCESS business.   Being successful (long-term) as a coach depends on having strong foundation of successful habits.   To paraphrase Jesus... "If you build your house on the sand, it's going to sink."   What good is it to work your tail off to onboard and serve clients if your own house isn't in order?  Today's podcast is all about that... and the life-altering routine hack that could very well mean the difference between success and failure.       If you've never been paid for your coaching, can you truly consider yourself to be “in business”?   It takes most coaches more than 6 months to book their first paid client – and unfortunately there are way too many coaches who NEVER get paid for their coaching.   What about you? Are you still waiting to find clients willing exchange their cash for your coaching?   Let me help you book your first (or next) paid coaching client.   Go to https://www.YourFirstPaidClient.com  

There's no easy way to say this, so I'm just gonna tell it to you straight up:   You must be willing to endure daily discomfort in order to have a successful business.   Some people refer to it as getting yourself out there - "out there" meaning out in the world where other living, breathing human beings live, breathe, think and talk.   It's a terrifying place at times... but it's the only place you're going to find clients.   Sure it's a whole lot easier to stay safe behind your screen without making any sudden movements... that's where the broke people hang out.   That's not you. You are meant for greatness - and that's what today's show is all about.       If you've never been paid for your coaching, can you truly consider yourself to be “in business”?   It takes most coaches more than 6 months to book their first paid client – and unfortunately there are way too many coaches who NEVER get paid for their coaching.   What about you?

Here's an inconvenient truth about running your own business... the odds are very much against your success.   For every successful coach I've met, there are an unknown number of startup coaches who hoped for the best but ended up moving on shortly after they hung their shingle.   I refuse to accept the data as being "just the way it is"... there is ALWAYS something you can do to better yourself.   That's the whole reason we became coaches in the first place... to improve the lives of those around us.   So why not focus on doing the things that will improve YOUR life, YOUR business and YOUR overall situation?   Today I'm going to share a core reason why some coaches beat the odds and experience wild success and how you can do the same.       If you've never been paid for your coaching, can you truly consider yourself to be “in business”?   It takes most coaches more than 6 months to book their first paid client – and unfortunately there are way too many coaches who NEVER get paid for their coaching.   What about you?

Today I'm excited to introduce you to an amazing couple with over 20 years of coaching experience... a husband-and-wife team that have broken completely free from any and all limitations.   Jeni and Jai Holla (yeah - that's really their last name) travel the United States and live wherever they want, whenever they want.  No limits - no rules - nothing but the goal of supporting their clients 100%.   I've had the pleasure of working with them for the past 4 months and realized there's so much value in what they do that I knew I had to bring them back on the podcast.   Today they'll be sharing how they've built their lives on their terms and how they're building their own empire in the process.     Check out The Levelution: https://thelevelution.us/   Follow the Hollas: https://solo.to/thehollas   Connect on IG: @the.hollas     If you've never been paid for your coaching, can you truly consider yourself to be “in business”?   It takes most coaches more than 6 months to book their first paid client – and unfortunately there are way too many coaches who NEVER get paid for their coaching.   What about you?

If your goal is to earn $100K+ a year in your coaching business but you're struggling to make even a fraction of that, keep the following in mind:   The people who make the money are the people who do the produce that results that make the money.   You want amazing things to happen in your business, in your life and in your bank account - right?   Then you must do the things required to receive those blessings... which means you must carve out time in your cluttered calendar and prioritize the important things over the unimportant.   Today I'm going to help you find that time- make these shifts and you'll begin realizing incredible results.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

The amount of money you earned in your 9-5 job has nothing to do with how much you can earn as a coach.   The problem is that most coaches struggle in their first months to even bring in one or two paying clients.   When this happens, doubt can creep in and trick you into thinking money is scarce for everyone... and why should they believe they could ever make a full-time living as a life coach?   I'm a firm believer in having a good strategy and implementing fearlessly in order to achieve results.   But strategy can only get you so far... you must also be in a place where you give money permission to flow into your life.  This is the part many coaches miss.   In today's podcast, we're addressing these money mindset issues head on to help you open yourself up to the wealth you deserve as a coach.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let me help you bring in your first (or next) paid client!  https://www.yourfirstpaidclient.com

Encouraging coaches to be selfish sounds like a terrible idea... and you might be right if it meant not caring about your clients or their results.   This episode is not about that at all... in fact, just the opposite.   Being a "selfish" coach - or a "jealous" coach - allows you to serve your existing clients at a higher level.   It means you're focused 100% on getting people the outcomes they want instead of concerning yourself with the naysayers.   When you play selfishly (for you and for your clients), outside forces can't keep you from being making a powerful, positive impact.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Simple question - when should you be posting to social media?   I'm sure I'll take all kinds of heat from the "gooroos" out there with all their algorithmic diagrams, who will tell me you must follow a rigid schedule based on the platform, the type of content, your audience's demographic and the alignment of the planets.   Here's my response: As the tactics will continue to change, the strategy remains the same.   Today's episode focuses on the simple strategy that has propelled not just me but my students as well.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Stop what you're doing... clear all the post it notes off your desk and opt out of that sales webinar you signed up for earlier.   There's only one thing you should be focused on today... tomorrow... this week.   I'm warning you right now... today's podcast will call you out. Not because of anything I'm doing, but because of what you KNOW you should be doing.   All I'm hoping to do is inspire you to fail a little bit further and a little bit faster.   You'll thank me later.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

The journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.   It can also be said that a successful, full-time coaching business begins with a single paid client.   This seems to be the big hangup for coaches just starting out... it's awesome to roll out the website and the logo and all the catchy catchphrases but it's not really a business until someone hands you their credit card.   Today I'm sharing a snippet of a brand new program called "Your First Paid Client". I'll be sharing where 2 of my very first clients came from, how I enrolled them and how you can do a quick audit of your own coaching business to see if you're set up for success.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Content creation got you frustrated?   Hate spending all day staring at a blank screen, only to end up reposting some motivational quote just to "show up"?   Here's a quick and dirty approach to creating good, quality content at top speed.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

As the father of 2 teens, I can attest to the craziness that sometimes goes on in our house. Independence kicks in... testing the limits is an everyday thing... they're using words like "slay", "sus" and "yeet" (it's okay- I don't know either)   It can be a struggle, and if you and your teen can't ever make things work you should reach out to today's guest and have a conversation.   Ben Pugh is a coach for parents and teens with an incredible heart for helping families reconnect.   He set out to build his coaching business in 2019 and today he has a group of more than 120 clients benefitting from he and his team at Firmly Founded Coaching.   I sat down with Ben and discussed how he came upon this particular niche, his coaching model and how he was able to grow his community so quickly.     Ben's website: https://bit.ly/3Q6EEPp   IMPACT: Parenting With Perspective Podcast:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/impact-parenting-with-perspective/id1523428934       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Filling your coaching calendar is fine... but filling your coaching calendar with AMAZING, ROCKSTAR CLIENTS is the ultimate!   Having a schedule full of uncoachable people would NOT be fun and might compel you to look for work elsewhere.   Which is why it's important to be particular about who you onboard and who you don't.   You want to serve people that energize you, are willing to be challenged and who truly WANT to the transformation that your coaching brings.   How can you make sure you only work with the best clients?   That's what we're going to talk about today!       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid with amazing, rockstar clients?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

As an entrepreneur, you have the ability to create your own path as you go.   You're not bound like a train on the tracks, you're more like a dune buggy that can swerve and turn in the sand at a moment's notice.   Sometimes we'll drive ourselves right off a cliff or head-first into a tree trunk. This can cause us to patch up bruises and lick our wounds, but we need to get back on the journey or we'll miss out big time.   How prepared are you for the obstacles?   If something BIG happened to your business today, would you be able to continue or would it all come crashing down?   Life is going to happen to you... today's episode will help you prepare.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

Wanna make an incredible income?  Provide powerful outcomes.   There are a lot of coaching gurus out there telling you that you need to sell the outcome... and they're right.   But how do you know what outcome your coaching provides?   This is where people get hung up. Many of you have told me your coaching provides everyone with a different outcome... it all depends on the person and their situation.   Maybe that's the case but you can't sell your coaching that way. You MUST offer a solid outcome so your audience can make an educated decision about whether they hire you.   Today's show breaks down a simple method for figuring out your best outcome.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

I apologize in advance if you feel personally attacked when you listen to this episode.   Actually, never mind. You need to hear this.   The words you use have an enormous impact on whether or not you struggle as a coach.   Today I'm going after everyone who calls themselves and their programs stuff like "heart-centered-abundance-beholding-fire-breathing-badass-inner-personal-self-discovery-truth-seeking-core-blazing-energizing-invigorating-fluffy-feathery-blah blah blah"....    Stop hiding behind coachese mumbo-jumbo jargon and tell people something that will make them stop in their tracks, pay attention and pay you money.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

There is great freedom in running your own business.   There are also a lot of headaches, including people on the internet who wanna take you down.   You can expect to get heckled when you show up on social media and make bold claims about your coaching business.   Don't let that stop you from getting your message out to the masses... instead you can do what I do.   Today we're going to talk about how to handle the debaters, trolls, naysayers, bad-mouthers and mudslingers.   AKA a big chunk of the internet.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

I'm not suggesting you sit around all day doing nothing... but you might want to reevaluate the work you're actually doing each day.   Being busy is hardly the same as being productive.   And the longer I coach, the more I find myself helping my clients cut back their workload instead of adding to it.    Because most coaches don't have a problem working hard or putting in long hours. More often we struggle to let stuff go.   There's a good chance that some of your daily business activities aren't helping you as much as you think.   It's time to do less... and make more.     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

A coaching certification program can take months- even years to complete.   You will spend hours studying coursework, developing listening skills and learning how and when to ask powerful questions.   You might spend between 20 and 100 hours swapping coaching sessions with others in your class in order to further develop your skills.   Until finally you've completed your program and you are now an accredited coach.   After that... there's only one thing left to do.   Any guesses?       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Today's my birthday- woohoo!  Cake all around!!!   This episode is simple... just a few thoughts about how my coaching business has evolved and what role it truly plays in my life.   Hopefully my experience gives you some things to consider as you continue through your own journey.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

If I could go back in time to the beginning of my coaching business, one of the first things I would tell myself is to stop trying so hard to be that rare exception.   I would spend so much time talking with other successful coaches, trying to figure out what they were doing to crush it... and then I would turn around and assume I had to do it differently.   What a foolish idea!   Tony Robbins says "Success leaves clues."  That might be true, but unless you're willing to pick up and act on those clues, you're no better off than if you tried to make it on your own.   Recently I've noticed a handful of people trying to rearrange the patterns of success (you might say "reinvent the wheel")... and they're struggling because of it.   This episode is dedicated to setting the record straight. I'm tackling 3 HUGE MYTHS that have popped up in the coaching world recently... and I'm taking them down!   Let's go!         When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work exclusively with qualified coaches who want to turn this part time business into a full-time career.   A filled coaching calendar is closer than you think...   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

There are billions of people within earshot of your message right now (yes... billions with a "B").   The internet has opened up opportunities for small businesses more than anything else in the history of commerce.   There is a problem though... you're not the only person trying to get to everyone's.   You're competing on a global scale against tens of thousands of other life coaches that are all trying to get the attention of your ideal client.   Which is why right now is the wrong time for playing small, laying low or keeping quiet.   It's time to get noisy (with the RIGHT kind of noise, of course!)     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Have you ever noticed some people manage to be successful no matter what they do while others seem to struggle for years just to get by?   Despite the name, "overnight success" almost never happens in a single night.   But successful people tend to speed up the process faster than the average Joe... and they tend to do this more than once.   How can one person spend years struggling to make money as a coach and someone else can manage to start bringing in paid clients almost immediately?   It's because time and success are not connected.   Today we're going to debunk the myth that you must spend years building your coaching business before you can start making a full-time income.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   I work 1:1 with qualified coaches (just like you) who want to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Do you believe that the work you do as a coach can be life-changing for a wide range of potential clients?   If you feel this way, it can be frustrating trying to niche down. The thought of only working with one type of client seems restrictive.   I had a few coaches ask me recently if choosing multiple niches was a possibility.   The short answer is no.   The longer answer is no... but don't worry about it because you'll end up working with all kinds of people anyhow.   This week's podcast is for anyone who struggles with the idea of niching down.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

If you asked 100 life coaches what they're favorite part of their job was, you'd hear a handful of different answers.   But I doubt "selling" would be one of them.  It probably wouldn't even make the top 50.   This episode is meant to challenge your perception of sales... possibly to the point that you even ENJOY selling (I realize that's a bold claim).   If the thought of "selling" makes you slightly sick to your stomach, I'm going to give you the remedy in today's podcast.   Connect on IG: www.instagram/life_coach_annie      When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

Things that we coaches find fascinating might not be interesting at all to your ideal clients.   For instance, I see many coaches sharing TED Talks on lofty, intellectual topics like "The Psychology of Limited Thinking" and "How Our Brainwaves Manipulate Our Memories To Believe Negative Ideas That Never Happened".   Don't Google those titles - I just made them up.   But they're basically the kind of stuff I see in my Facebook feed from coaches who believe they're somehow connecting with their ideal clients this way.   I have no problem with anyone posting whatever they want on their social media (YAY Freedom of Speech!)   But if you're trying to bring in clients, there are definitely good and not-so-good ways to go about it.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Have you ever had a client that you absolutely LOVED working with?   If you're really clear on your client avatar, you've probably had quite a few -- perhaps even most.   Have you considered there might be ways to continue working with someone longer than your normal 3-6 month coaching program?   I've been working with some of the same clients for years. They keep getting amazing results and I keep getting paid.   In today's episode I'm going to show you how you can do the same thing in your business. After all, there's no sense saying "goodbye" to someone who can continue to benefit from your coaching.     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

A seductive new way to find coaching clients has been gaining steam in recent years.   Platforms like Bark act like matchmaking sites for people looking for everything from DJs, painters, birthday magicians... and yes, life coaches.   I've spoken to dozens of coaches who have tried this method for bringing in clients with limited success. The benefits include having clients sent directly to you. The downside is that these people are often making decisions solely based on price- meaning the lowest price gets the business (driving prices way down for some coaches).   Paul Heron has been able to turn this "pay-to-play" game around to his advantage. He's a recent graduate of our "5 Clients in 90 Days" program, and in today's podcast he's sharing how he was able to use the process he learned in 5C90 to massively improve his closing rate with these clients without lowering his prices.   Paul's website: https://www.paulheronlifecoaching.com/   Paul's email:  paul@paulheronlifecoaching.com      When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Coaches are amazing human beings... but you already know that.   You've spent time with them while you were getting your accreditation. You've probably joined several coaching communities and FB Groups. You may have even swapped coaching sessions together.   But what about becoming a coach that coaches coaches - ever thought about that?   I bet the thought has crossed your mind.   It sounds like an amazing concept. Surrounding yourself with people just like you and helping them become better coaches.   I felt the same way 5 years ago when I began working almost exclusively with coaches and consultants.   In today's episode I'm going to share what I've learned, and whether or not becoming a coach for coaches is worth considering in 2022.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

Charge what you're worth... you've heard it a hundred times.   But what if you're not doing this for the money?   What if someone needs your coaching and they just can't afford to pay your prices?   What's the harm in coaching people for free? Or maybe you can give them 10 sessions for the price of 1?   If you're tempted to discount your coaching for any reason, I urge you to listen to today's show.   There are some serious flaws in the "coaching for free" logic that's out there. And no, it doesn't have to do with you making money.   It has to do with what's best for your clients.   And free coaching is not the answer. Give me 10 minutes and I'll prove it once and for all.     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Sometimes, the more you try and "look" like a successful business owner, the less successful you become.   Today I'm going to share some of the embarrassing struggles I've had and mistakes I made early on in my entrepreneurial endeavors.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Saying "No" to someone is tough, especially when you're a relatively new coach who hasn't made big buckets of cash yet.   When I first started coaching, I would talk to everyone and anyone who wanted to have a conversation.   This means, in addition to bringing on a few free (practice) clients, I ended up helping a lot of people who innocently wanted to "pick my brain".   None of these people were ill-intentioned... but they didn't feel like paying me either.  And why should they?  I made myself available to answer any and all of their questions for free.   It was a challenging lesson for me - honestly I still struggle with people-pleasing a bit (though I've gotten much better).   In today's podcast, I'm sharing my personal struggle (and now triumph) around handling brain-pickers.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Having a goal is great but it's not enough to make you successful.   Without a clear plan, goals are nothing more than wishes.   But what's the plan? How do you know what steps to take and which to avoid?   Today I'm laying out the 3-Step framework for having a successful coaching business. These are 3 "big picture" steps that won't give you a minute-by-minute to-do list to follow... but they will help you assess whether the actions you're taking now are moving you forward, keeping you stuck or sliding you backward.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

Are you sick and tired of writing posts that only get 2 or 3 "likes"?   Do you work for hours to create that perfect piece of content, only to have it grow cobwebs?   And then you see other coaches receiving all sorts of attention and engagement and wonder "How come no one 'likes' my content?"   It doesn't have to be this way.   Today's podcast comes fresh off a recent client conversation - and if you're ready to start creating content that produces results, you need to hear this too.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

If your client calendar is empty and your social media posts are a ghost town... you're gonna wanna hear what I have to say.   This will be one of those "listen twice and take notes" kind of podcasts.   No matter what niche you serve, you will definitely want to use this emotional marketing secret to create powerful connections with your ideal clients.   This is what the top 1% of coaches do to bring in AT LEAST $5K a month consistently.   The curtain's getting rolled back... let's go!       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

"Done is the new perfect."   This simple sentence has been my personal motto for the past 5 years, and I credit much of my success to taking massive imperfect action.   Perfection slows you down, causes you to second-guess yourself and keeps you from serving the very people who need your help!   But there's another side of perfection that's bad for business: when you've achieved perfection (for example, you have a 100% success rate at closing people on the phone) you aren't able to grow stronger the way you do when you experience failure.   It's a real devil, this "perfection".    Let's tackle it together - ready or not.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Money money money - yeah babyyyy!   Don't you just LOVE money? Having a fat bank account... private jets... caviar... your own private island...    When you think of being rich, you might think of lavish celebrity lifestyles who have more cash than they know what to do with.   But what about having lots of money WITHOUT all the diamonds and pearls and mountains of gold coins?   Our perception of money, wealth and material goods plays a huge role in our lives, our business and our relationships.   Is there anything with being "rich"?   My answer is "no".   And today we're gonna talk about why (and why you WANT to be rich).       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

You've heard it a thousand times before... "Your money mindset can make or break your business."   It's true that having a negative mindset around money can keep you from amassing true wealth. Yet being positive about how much money you want to make isn't enough.   You need to know how to operate your business profitably.   If you go too many months in a row without making a profit, you're eventually going to have to shut the door on your dream of being a full-time coach.   Are you ready to get real... uncomfortably real about your business?   This might be one of the most eye-opening episodes of CSR... and it might just save your coaching business from dying in darkness.        When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

If you have you ever had a session where a slight shift in perspective resulted in a major client breakthrough, then you're going to LOVE this episode!   I challenge you to make an ever-so-slight shift in the way you sell your coaching.   We're talking miniscule in effort... but enormous in potential!   This is one of those money-mindset, brain smashers that has helped my students explode their ability to close clients, regardless of what they charge.       When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

Today I'm sitting down with martial artist and MindBody Mastery Mentor, Dane Dormio.   Since his first spiritual awakening back in 2004, Dane has dedicated his life to understanding the secrets of flow states and optimal human performance.   He knows what he's doing too.. he has a bachelor's degree in math and physics, a black belt in Kung Foo San Soo, and a master's certificate in 18 Lohan Palms Qigong.   His coaching helps ambitious professionals and high performers optimize their mind-body-energy system, break through stress and burnout, and realize their full potential.   RESERVE YOUR SPOT TO ATTEND THE 4 DAY MINDBODY MASTERY FLOWSHOP: https://bit.ly/3f64t13     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?   Beats me.   But if you were to record a podcast, write a blog post or produce a killer video series and there was no audience, it would have exactly the same result as if you'd never made that effort.   Publishing great content consistently is a MUST if you wish to survive online. So is an audience to consume it.   Stop creating content that never gets shared and dies in darkness.   Today we're going to explore 3 different strategies to put yourself in front of hundreds, thousands or possible MILLIONS of potential clients.         When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

As a coach, your NUMBER ONE priority should be to coach people through their challenges so they can potentially achieve the outcome they desire... yes?   If you agree, you're going to love this strategy for helping people and putting money in your pocket... even if they don't enroll with you.         When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full-time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

Today's show was prompted by a recent conversation I had with another coach.   It's been 3 years since she started her coaching business. In that time, she's had ONE paying client.   I wish I could say she was the exception... however after thousands of hours of conversations with hundreds of coaches from all over the world, this is much more common than I care to admit.   But whether everyone else succeeds isn't important... what's important is whether YOU succeed or not. And I really, REALLY want you to succeed.   When you're not seeing the results you truly want, it doesn't mean you've failed. It just means you're not there yet. And in order to get there, things have to change.   It's time for a little tough love.     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8

"If I give up on this business, then I'm giving up on all the women who need me."   It's a powerful truth that all coaches should own... this isn't just a business of having a few conversations and making a few dollars.   Coaching is a transformational, life-altering process that has the power to completely change the trajectory of someone's life.   Karen Messina knows this as well as anyone. She's a coach for women survivors of domestic abuse and she's dedicated her life to helping women go from victim to victorious.   Today we're sitting down to talk about not only her mission to change lives, but her own willingness and determination to work through her own challenges to build a movement around her coaching business.   Karen's website: www.karenmessina.com   FB Group:  PROFESSIONAL WOMEN SURVIVORS OF ABUSE   Coaching Professional Women Survivors of Abuse Podcast: https://anchor.fm/karen-messina   Learn more about the Living Free From Fear Movement:  https://www.livingfreefromfear.com/     When was the last time your coaching calendar was booked solid?   If you're staring at another empty schedule with no clients, no calls and no plan it's time to get some help.   The 5 Clients in 90 Days Program is designed for qualified coaches who wish to make this part time business into a full time career.   Your next 5 clients are closer than you think.   Let's have a conversation and map out a specific plan for how you can bring in consistent clients in the next 90 days. https://bit.ly/3nCJyI8  

Have you ever had a client who was an absolute rock star?   - They showed up to each session, ready to play all out! - They were willing to have their self-limitations shattered - The sessions were fun and the conversations powerful - They describe their results as life-changing   These are the kinds of clients you wish you could bring in consistently, month after month.   Well good news! As long as you've had even ONE rock star client, you're going to love this episode.   I'm going to show you how it's possible to clone that perfect client (figuratively speaking of course).         Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today.   

The next time you hear the success story about that coach who had a $10K month, ask yourself "How many months did that one $20K month take? And how much will they be able to make next month?"   Having a successful month in business is great, but it's hardly life-transforming.   A string of months without any coaching income, followed by a single month of $5K or $10K is not my idea of a successful business model.   I prefer working a calendar that is consistently filled with clients, so I don't have to guess where my next car payment's coming from. It's a much better way to go.   But you don't have to take my word for it!   Today I'm talking with one of my former students who started working with me in the beginning of 2021, and since then he's been hitting CONSISTENT $5K-$10K months in his coaching business... all while working part time!   I've asked him to break down exactly what he does and share it with you!     Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today.   

Opportunity doesn't always knock.   Most of the time it's walking right past us, blending in and looking like everything else.   Other times it doesn't exist until we do something to create it.   I won't get into a deep philosophical debate about where opportunity actually comes from, but I will tell you it's all over the place.   Abundant opportunity is around you all the time - you just have to seek it.   And sometimes you've got to be willing to create it yourself.       Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today.   

The cat's out of the bag... I'm currently co-creating a brand new program for coaches who are in the very early stages of their coaching business.   Any time I create a new program I have a habit of going through all (and I mean ALL) of my notes, materials and content from over the years to sift through and put together the best of the best for my students.   It's been 5 years since I've niched down to helping coaches grow their businesses online, and in that time there have been so many changes.   But if I had to reduce all my experience, training, research and results down to a single thing - I would have to say everything comes down to taking action.   Not "busy work" action- action that really pushes things forward.   Let's strip everything else down and focus on the key actions you MUST take today.       Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today. 

When I first started working online full time, every day was a like the wild west - no plan, no schedule and pretty much no progress.    It took a while to figure out how to make this business profitable... and when I say a while, what I mean is YEARS.    It wasn't until I found my groove and really locked in to a solid and consistent schedule that I began to find success.   Today my work schedule has actually reached a place when I jokingly call my life "boring". It isn't boring... but I'm definitely not winging it anymore.         Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today.   

People are more inclined to buy from you when they know, like and trust you... and the greatest of these is trust.   How do you build trust quickly in a time where no one seems to trust anyone?   There are several good ideas- one of my personal favorites is podcasting. My listeners know me way better than someone who simply sees a piece of my content floating around on social media.   Perhaps it's time to consider starting a podcast of your own. They're an amazing platform for connecting with your ideal audience.   If you're thinking about it, I recommend getting help from someone who knows what it takes. And that someone is Ozeal DeBastos.   Ozeal is going to walk us through what he calls the BAM Method - his proven structure for launching a podcast that not only ranks high on the podcasting charts but that also brings you cash and clients!   www.ozealmedia.com      Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today.

"I Can Show You How To Make $10K In 30 Days - Even If You're Brand New!"   There seem to be a LOT of these gurus popping up. In the half-decade that I've been working with coaches and consultants, I would guess roughly every other new coach that arrives on the scene seems to work with other coaches.   I don't have a problem with this - as long as they can actually get their clients the results the claim (most of them aren't anywhere close though).   How can you tell if that "coach who coaches coaches coaching coaches" is a real deal, or if they're another fly-by-night, get-rich-quick wannabe who just wants to sucker you out of thousands of dollars?   The information I share today could very well save you tens of thousands of dollars.       Is your coaching calendar consistently filled with clients and sales calls?   Are you able to comfortably engage with prospects in a way that doesn't feel salesy?   Are you bringing in AT LEAST $5K each month into your coaching business?   It's possible – and it can happen faster than you might think!   If you're ready to hit consistent $5K+ months, visit https://www.5K90.com today.
