One thing that I find that coaches who are building a business continually misunderstand is the business of marketing. It can feel so overwhelming that we resist showing up in this part of our business. But here’s the reality; without it, you don’t have a business, let alone a profitable one. So I’ve invited Coach Christy Osborne back so we could talk about the mindset you have to embrace to attract the clients you want.

We’ll talk about why you don’t have to have a degree in marketing to grow your coaching business, and why you need to start by picking one medium and platform that feels most natural to you and commit to showing up consistently there. We’ll share examples from our own experience of how the like, know, and trust factor is critical in a successful coaching business and why you have to commit to the long game in your marketing strategy to build it.

While the majority of coach training and certification programs emphasize social media as your key marketing platform, the truth is that social media is often a slow burn in the beginning. It’s super important to create and offer free valuable content consistently, but in the very beginning, social media is unlikely to lead to many paying clients.

In this episode, I’m sharing my favourite old-school marketing methods and explaining why they’re still really effective in a post-Covid world. You’ll walk away with a handful of actionable ideas for how to leverage your existing personal and business contacts, get your name out in your local and online community, and identify valuable ways to partner with complementary businesses and practitioners, so you can start making money right now! We’ll also talk about why being connected to a community of other like-minded coaches is 100% key to your success.

I'm adding a new regular feature to the podcast that I'm hoping you'll love, Ask The Coach, where I answer questions from you, the listeners.

In the first installment of “Ask The Coach”, I answer this question from Shannon, a Bite-Sized Balance listener:

“Every morning I promise myself I won’t eat sugar that day, but every night the craving hits, and I give in again. What can I do differently?”

 In this short podcast episode, I explain how cravings work and provide three practical, bite-sized strategies to diffuse a craving when it hits, no matter what it is you’re craving.
