Even Coaches need help with holiday blues!!!

Im just back from holiday... 10 days of sunshine, cocktails, far too much food, family time (a few sibling fights of course!), sea and no rushing around!!!

Whilst I love what I do, what are your top tips for getting back to it as a self-employed person?

"What if I offend someone?"

This was a comment from an aspiring coach I spoke to recently. "What if the niche I pick offends someone?"

This lady was worried, if she settled on a certain niche and ideal client, that others that she could coach, may be offended in some way. Her ideal client is a parent. She was worried that she may upset other women, that fit the same demographic, that aren't mothers. Those non-mothers are likely to struggle with what she talks about in her marketing, so what if she offends them by mentioning children?

This is how far in our own head we can get!

The reality is, it is highly unlikely anyone would be offended. Equally, if all her content resonated with someone that doesn't have children, it is highly unlikely this Coach would be written off because she mentioned children a few times!!!

If you are feeling stuck, struggling to niche down and articulate who your ideal client is, so you can actually start getting word out and some traction in your business, then download my ideal client workbook (link below).

Go with it and just start! I am almost 100% sure nobody will be offended because you target a particular person in your marketing.

Why did you become a Coach? Not what pushed you away from whatever you used to do, but what pulled you towards Coaching?

For me it was a number of things... the stuff I loved most about my old career in Talent Acquisition and leadership was the people part. Motivating people, helping others see what they may not believe is possible for them, helping them with challenges, ensuring the right people are in the right roles - not just in terms of skills but what they excel at and enjoy.

All of that coupled with becoming a mum, needing more flex but wanting to do something I was passionate about. That I cared about. That truly made a difference to peoples' lives.

and I am so pleased to say that is exactly what is happening!!

So, tell me, why did you become a coach?

Has your business stopped??

It's the start of (or a couple of weeks in for some!) the school summer holidays. Does that mean getting your business moving just stops?

I know what it's like... You couldn't justify paying for holiday clubs for the kids as you're not earning enough. But to earn more, you need to DO more... but now you don't have time... and quite frankly, you have been "doing" for months now and not much is happening other than the odd client here and there... So you have decided to park it until September. Enjoy the summer and go hard at it when the kids are back to school.

But what will be different? If the efforts you made before just haven't got you anything in return, why will they in September? It's not a nice thought - I know how hard you are trying!! But to get different results, you need to do different things...

I highly recommend one of those things is talking to me... during the school holidays!! I am launching my Evolve Together programme (starting once the kids are back to school - so no need to try and fit it all in now) and offering not only the BETA reduced price but also an Early Bird discount if we chat in July and get you enrolled.

So, let me help you change things up. Let me help you get there - to have that thriving coaching business you desperately want - it IS possible!!
Drop me a message today and we can get a call arranged.

Is it really as simple as "nailing your niche"?!

That's where it starts. However, I notice a lot of coaching programmes for Coaches to build their coaching businesses (that was a lot of "coach" in one sentence!) only focus on this.

But then what??

Once you "nail your niche" and craft your "magnetic messaging", what happens next?

This is why I support my clients from start to end. Yes we do all of the above, but we also look at mindset. Accountability. Pricing. Building your signature programme. Planning for the future. Managing "comparisonitis". How to show up consistently and confidently. What success actually means for YOU and how to get there.

All of this and more is covered in my Evolve Together group programme.

Would you like to chat about how you can join? (Don't forget, I have an early bird 20% discount for those signing up this month!)

Steady flow of clients, consistent income, feeling successful and like you "did it"... sounds dreamy right?!

I know all us Coaches want these things. I also know there is no quick fix to get to this. I even know, even once you've "made it" there will be times when you feel like it's falling apart. When the client flow has dried up. When you start doubting yourself and getting bored.

Whilst I help aspiring Coaches to shift from having a patchy, side-hustle business, to having a steady flow of clients and income and a business they are proud of, I am always 100% honest in sharing this will take time. We won't work together for a couple of months and suddenly you will be doing the elusive 5k or even 10k months.

You can get to that place, sure! But it isn't just going to happen overnight.

I always work with clients on milestone goals. So if 10k months are the ultimate aim, what is your first step to get there? 2k? 3k? Securing 3 clients a month consistently for 3 months?

If you don't have smaller goals, reaching the big ones may never happen.

If you want to chat about how I can help you reach your small and big goals, drop me a message.

You CAN Coach anyone.

This is true. But you can't MARKET to everyone.

If you say you are anything to anyone, nobody will hear you.

If you are really clear in saying who you help, with what to reach what outcome, people will notice. They will possibly engage. They may even reach out for your help. At the minimum they will just quietly clock your message. And when they next see you and your messaging, they will clock it again. They may need to see it up to 21 times!!

So get your perfect client clear, your messaging to them clear and keep consistent. My free resource to define your ideal client will really help you with all of this.

I'm on holiday enjoying some well-earned rest and family time in Crete!!

However, that doesn't mean you can't still register interest in my Evolve Together programme designed for coaches fed up of tumbleweed and crickets in their coaching business... Let's get it all sorted together - let you finally have that thriving coaching business you desire and deserve!! You didn't do all that work and training to watch the dream slip away.

So, whilst I may be on hols, you can still book a discovery call in my diary for when I'm back. I'd love to help you.

P.S - by booking that call in for July, you still take advantage of the Early Bird rate along with the BETA programme discount.

P.P.S. Yep, this is a scheduled post - truly taking time off whilst remaining visible is key for my coaching business. Having calls go in my diary whilst I sip a cocktail is all part of the business model I live by!!

I help Coaches and Consultants, who are despairing that their coaching practice is never going to really get off the ground, to turn things around.

I help you make a living from coaching. I help you feel confident, comfortable and proud that you did it!! That you have a coaching business!

It's not an over night fix. We need 6 months together, but you will see progress within that 6 months and I expect you to earn back your investment with me (and more) before we are finished.

Should we chat? drop me a direct message and we can arrange a free consultation call

"I've spoken to 5 business coaches so far, but I think you're it!"

This is the feedback I had on a recent consultation call. Her reasons?

🔔 I was honest! I didn't tell this lady she heeded to use Facebook Ads or dance on reels.
🔔 I didn't tell her she must do it MY way or her business will fail.
🔔 I didn't make it sound like she can just do a few simple things and she will make 10k a month in 90 days time.

In fact I didn't tell her what to do at all! I shared how I work, who I help and that I felt comfortable and confident I could Coach and mentor her so she can grow her business to the place she wanted to get it to.

So if you would like to finally find someone that feels like 'it', drop me a message!

P.S. Don't forget I am now enrolling onto my Evolve Together group programme at not only a discounted BETA rate, but also, during July adding an Early Bird discount!

Summer holidays!!!! Love or hate??

My eldest has broken up from school already so we are already in the "juggle".

I'm always torn between loving the fact the days are less squeezed due to school runs and clubs and so being able to get on with things more, vs. wishing I too had 8 weeks of no demands or responsibilities and wanting to be with the kids more (the whole "you only have 18 summers" thing of course amplifying that... then they start arguing and fighting so the guilt of booking them into clubs is fairly quickly dampened!!)

Do you love or hate summer hols as a self-employed Coach or Consultant?

P.S. If you do want to feel like you are being impactful over the summer, but finding it hard to focus, why not download my workbook so you can truly nail knowing exactly who your ideal client is, which is the catalyst to all your marketing and other business building activity? Here's the link: https://rebeccaamincoach.kartra.com/page/developing_your_ideal_client

MY DIARY IS OPEN!

I have a few spaces left this week, before I go on holiday, to speak to coaches about my Evolve Together programme, designed to not only bring you a consistent flow of clients and income, but to help you design a Coaching business you love that works for YOU!

Click the link below to book a free discovery session (speaking in July also means you not only get a BETA price for this programme, but also an Early Bird discount, so this will be the lowest price you will ever be able to enrol).

I would love to help you get exactly where you want to be in your coaching business.

It's my son's Prize-giving event at school today, he most likely won't get a prize....

Not because he hasn't worked really hard, progressed, behaved well (mainly!), performed in sport... But because there are only a handful of prizes to go to the absolute stand-out performances in academics, sports and arts (that definitely won't be his prize!!).

The thing with my eldest son is he is very unassuming. He isn't one to shout about his success. He quietly knows he's done well, and that's enough. He has made solid progress in all areas of school, grown in confidence, matured and makes us proud every day. That is prize enough for me!

So whilst I congratulate all prize winners (I'm sure all are well deserved), I will also be taking that time to applaud all the others that have kept chipping away and are way ahead of where they were this time last year in many areas.

You and your business are no different. Small, consistent steps forward is where you will win the prize of more clients, confidence, freedom and consistent income. One big moment is great, but focus on the constant progress in your business. Then give yourself a prize when you reflect back on how far you have come!!

HOW CAN I FIND COACHING CLIENTS?

This is a question I see a lot on various Linked In and Facebook posts...

My answer is always the same. I don't know.

I don't know because I know nothing about your ideal client and niche. How I secure clients will be different to you.

I can definitely help you work it all out, but you need to start with your ideal client and niche before you can do anything else. If you need help with that, download my handy workbook via the link in my bio! You will then know exactly who you are trying to attract and what you can help them with. When that's clear, you can move on to going out and finding them!

Want to get a discount?

I'm opening my waitlist for my "Evolve Together" programme, kicking off in the Autumn, this week and I am very excited!! I also have a great offer for you!

First though, here's who it's for:
💫 Aspiring Coaches or those that have hit a wall with trying to get their businesses going;
💫 Coaches who want to make a living from Coaching, but haven't got there yet!
💫 Coaches who feel overwhelmed with ALL THE THINGS that need to be done to achieve the dream of a thriving coaching business;
💫 Coaches who desperately want to Coach but are starting to feel it's not going to work out as finding clients just feels impossible;
💫 Coaches who feel lost in terms of pricing, processes, marketing... one challenge just seems to breed another!!
💫 Coaches who want to have a business they are proud of, that works for them and attracts a consistent flow of clients.

So here's the offer! 💰
With summer holidays approaching, I wanted to give people a chance to register interest AND, if you add your name to the waitlist before August 1st, you will not only be able to participate in the programme at the already reduced BETA rate, but also gain the early bird discount on top!!! So this will be almost half price.

To be really clear, I am not one to use pricing to win clients (I believe people will pay the 'right' price for the outcomes they want). But, I want to make this offer so I can test the programme structure and gain feedback / testimonials.
I have every confidence you will earn your investment back very quickly during / after the programme!).

So, drop me a message or a comment below if you want to hear more info? I can't wait to share and get started after the summer holidays!

"I CAN"T JUSTIFY THE COST RIGHT NOW"

I hear this A LOT! But what if the cost was the key to earning the money goal you set yourself?

After three sessions with me, having not actually begun launching her business, my recent client had three confirmed discovery calls in her diary and another 5 people expressing interest and likely to book!

Assuming she only converts 25% of these, that would be two paying clients in the bag. That will have paid for her programme with me, and more! Plus she's out of the blocks, equipped with the tools she needs to keep this going!!

I 100% get it - I've been there. Spending money, when you aren't earning it, is terrifying! My advice is only invest in something that will pay for itself, and more, quickly. Don't pay for even more training, outsourcing and fancy branding. You can do all of that when you are out of the blocks.

Invest in the thing that will help you earn. Let me know if you would like to chat?

I don't think you really know your ideal client...

Sorry, but I bet you don't. So many new coaches, or those that have been trying so hard to get things moving in their business, think they do, but they don't.

They will tell me they work with "Professional women with children" or "middle leaders that lack confidence"

But what about the rest?

What about the detail of who they are? What they do? what they think? What they feel? What they wish for?

There is SO MUCH more to defining your ideal client. Lucky for you I can offer two resources to help you really get to grips with who your ideal client is:

1. My handy, step-by-step workbook to finally get your ideal Client Persona nailed: https://rebeccaamincoach.kartra.com/page/developing_your_ideal_client

2. My podcast episode "DO I need a Niche?" - this talks about ideal clients and niching - so a double whammy! https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/gQiyqr7yyKb

I would love to know how you get on with these resources - so do let me know!

I see you. Posting on socials hoping someone will bite.

Wondering when is this actually going to start happening for me?

Going "all in" then going quiet. Not really being sure what exactly you should be posting daily.

Listening to podcasts hoping they will give you all the answers and suddenly the clients will flow in!

Feeling too busy with life to ever get on top of any kind of plan to get your coaching business going.

Cringing at the idea of doing any kind of video - even a written post fills you with dread knowing your ex-colleagues may see it.

I could go on! The thing is, it doesn't have to be like this.

The other thing is, if it does stay like this, I hate to tell you, but you won't 'make' it.

Directionless, patchy action won't bring you clients. It also doesn't have to be relentless - there are ways to make it work for you! I can help you do that. Drop me a message - perhaps we should chat?

I help Coaches and Consultants, who are despairing that their coaching practice is never going to really get off the ground, turn things around.

I help you make a living from coaching. I help you feel confident, comfortable and proud that you did it!! That you have a coaching business!

It's not an over night fix. We need 6 months together, but you will see progress within that 6 months and I expect you to earn back your investment with me (and more) before we are finished.

Should we chat? (click link in bio to book a free 20-min discovery call - let's just do this and get you there together.)

ARE YOU READY?

Ready to really get your coaching business going? Ready to have a coaching practice you are proud of? To be able to say you did it?

Then let's chat. Drop me a DM to book that free 20-min call with me and we can do this together!! No more faffing - let's do this!!

(PS, this isn't another "I will make you rich in 60 days" BS programme. This is real, authentic guidance that will finally mean you get there. No more quick fixes, just a path to success that sometimes will be bumpy, but will get you there!)

Do any of these sound familiar?

😫 "I have no idea where to get paying coaching clients from... I'm just hoping they find me, but I have no clue if what I'm doing to attract them will work!"
😱 "I hate the idea of putting myself out there! I really worry what my previous colleagues will think - it's all so cringey!"
🙊 "I've no idea how to market myself because I'm still employed, so I can't splash my coaching business all over Linked In"
💰 "How on Earth do I price my coaching?! It's a complete minefield. I don't want to coach for peanuts, but I also don't feel confident enough to charge much more"
⏰ "I just don't know how to find the time to do all the things. I love coaching, but now realise I have to market myself and run a business - which feels like a full time job in itself!"
👩‍💻 "I just don't know what I need - what tech, a website, whether to be sole trader or Ltd company, insurance, how to automate anything..."

If even one of the above (and definitely if more than one!) sound like your thoughts, then my Evolve Together programme is for you!

Everything above - and way more - will be covered in this group programme and I can't wait to get going! I am starting a waitlist (we will kick off after the summer, but anyone signing up now will get early bird discount and materials to start working on!) - would you like the details and so you can decide if you would like to be added?

Evolve Together - the Group programme for aspiring Coaches who want their Coaching business to be their "thing"! To, have a steady flow of clients, earn a decent amount from a business the love and that works for them.

Who's your ideal client?

Not sure, then, if you are a Coach or Consultant, download this workbook to get this nailed! This will be the catalyst to everything else you do in your business, so it's really worth working on!

Developing your ideal client Define who your ideal client is and make marketing your business a whole lot easier!

Who’s supporting you?

Being a Coach is hard! You give a lot of yourself to others. When you are struggling to find consistent clients and truly get your business of the ground, it can be a lonely place.

Finding support to keep you going, bounce ideas, be challenged is important.

So if you want to shift your business to thriving, rather than patchy, to feel confident and excited, rather than doubtful and anxious, maybe I can support you?

Great awards ceremony for
So proud of Oscar winning Coaches/Managers player of the year ❤️ (Evening out the win Leo had last year!).
Well done lovely boys!)

It’s here!!!!! First episode of my podcast “For the Love of Coaching”.

This first one is all about the mistakes I made when I started out - so you can avoid them!

Have a listen and tell me - are you or have you made any of them? I hope this stops you in your tracks and gets you moving forward to having a thriving coaching business more quickly.

Also, can you help me? Share far and wide - share the link to your socials and network of coaches!

Boredom in business is dangerous.

If you become bored, you will become complacent, procrastinate more and basically damage this amazing thing you have built.

The answer of course isn't to stay bored and let it fizzle out, but to find the spark again and, if needed, mix things up!

And lucky for you, I can help with that.

Book a call and let’s reignite that passion for 2024!

https://buff.ly/3TdP8gs

What do you want more of in 2024?

If it’s like many of the business owners I talk to…it’s freedom.

Freedom to choose when you work, how you work, and who you work with.

Freedom to take time out to recharge and do things you love to do.

Freedom to evolve your business so it works for you.

However, the truth is, it isn't easy to get to that place.

It’s something I’ve had to work on a lot - my vision, my goals, my planning, and the actions needed to make sure my business delivers what it needs for me.

Because your business needs to deliver what YOU need, just as much as what you deliver for your clients.

Otherwise, what’s the point of running a business if it doesn’t work for you?

So, my question for you is - is your business giving you what you need it to? If not, what changes do you need to make to get you where you want to be?

Not sure? Book a call and we can figure it out together.
