I occasionally coach/mentor coaches and as part of our 1-1 work, you have access to the online course: Sign up clients confidently.

Have a good day and if you need anything, reach me on [email protected]

It's OK to change your niche throughout your coaching career.

We all have some limiting beliefs, of that I am sure. What are yours?

And yes, it is important to be aware of them and work with them... but I don't think we can completely get rid of them. I don't think it is necessary either.

There are many common fears and worries (limiting beliefs), such as:

- what if I say something wrong or incorrect?

- if I am successful and wealthy, people will envy me and harm me!

- it is too much work!

- there are better coaches than me!

- I don't know enough yet!

- what will people think of me?

- who am I to claim I can help others (my life is not perfect)!

- don't stick out (be seen/heard) too much!

- people don't have enough money, especially not for coaching!

- they don't need coaching, they can help themselves!

- coaching has a bad reputation!

- people don't trust coaching!

What is important, is to know your fears, your feelings, your saboteurs, your limiting beliefs and take action anyway. You can have your fears and concerns and take the steps anyway. Have courage!

So, now you know the 4 steps how to find a client and how to offer them your coaching package (ie. 3 or 6 months contract, paid in full and upfront)..

1) Identify who you want to work with
2) Invite them to an interview (or conversation)
3) Coach them
4) Give them your offer (propose what you will work on together over the next few months and how much...)

If you need help, let me know. I still have space for individual mentoring which includes the above mentioned steps in an online course and 1-1 mentoring sessions with me.

I love bartering. Do you barter?

Coaching is such a versatile tool and technique. As you probably know, with your coaching skills, you can help anyone with anything, without being an expert in their field.

With well worded and targeted questions, you can guide your client to find their way out of a situation or to achieve their goal. With active listening, you give your client space and time to explore their situation. They probably have no one in their life who would listen attentively and not interrupt them or give them unwanted advice...

Did you know that you can also trade your skills for products or services?

I do it sometimes, when it feels right.

For example, I traded services with my hairdresser! I coach her in English and she does my hair for free! Win-win situation.

Last week I agreed with my masseur to trade too. He will give me 1 hour massage every week and I will listen to his relationship issues (1h) and help him find a happy way... How great is that? I know that coaching values more than a massage but I would listen to his story anyway but would not be able to help him if we weren't in a "contract".

In the past I traded coaching sessions for therapy sessions. I traded Mastermind sessions for a website building.

I traded my online course+mentoring sessions Sign Up Clients Confidently https://bit.ly/3uSuJEj with a fellow coach who teaches me about Money in Relationship (topic I am interested in)...

Do you trade? If now, why not?

Two new arrivals from the UK 🤩
I was given an Amazon voucher for my bday 2 years ago and only just managed to get something.

Delivery from the UK is a bit of a hassle (two months wait and custom declaration seems normal) …

Anyways, Marisa Peer is my favour go to teacher, I read a few of her books. Paul McKenna I have not read but my coaches/mentors use his teachings, so I know a fair amount.

I bought other two books. One on relationships and one on failure as a way to success.

I will be sharing more about the latter in my emails to you. If you want to receive them, let me know and I will add you on the list 💙

I was making online courses for the last two years which still required selling myself ... or the course or the content or the results, whatever we call it.

In online course business, I was selling one mini course, 6 weeks course and a 4 month course. The strategy is to bring as many people as possible in your facebook group and your email database, through paid facebook ads and loads of free content over 1 year and loads of videos. Then you sell in free webinars or email campaigns or in the group or challenges... It is a lot of work, most of it is not coaching at all!

But this is not what I wanted to share today (if you are thinking of going into online courses business, I can give you a good overview of what it is - contact me for a 1-1 consultation).

I decided to have a break from this strategy and went back to 1-1 coaching sessions again. There, I can give my best and really support the person in front of me. In real, honest, raw conversations.

I am about to make a proposal to a prospect client, with whom I had 2 sessions, without mentioning money so far.

When we finished the second session, I simply asked: Would you like me to help you with this (what we discussed) and have more conversations like this? He went on for a bit saying this and that... not giving me a YES or NO... so I asked again. Would you like me to help you with it?

Then I got the answer YES and we agreed to connect in two days so I can talk him through the conditions, as he called it.

After two years of NOT proposing F2F, I admit, I am a bit nervous :)
But if I don't ask, I don't get and he will struggle with his situation.

Go out, connect with people, invite them to a conversation for free, serve them, ask them if they want more of that magic.... and offer your packages (x months, money upfront, in full).

Let's go together.
