Where to start as a new Health Coach or Life Coach?

Stumped on where to start as a new health coach or life coach? 

Maybe you got your health coaching certification or life coach certification & now you’re wondering how to get clients online or locally…

As a Business Coach for health coaches & life coaches, I often times see coaches starting their business focused on the WRONG things in an order that doesn’t quite make sense. 

For example…

• Posting inspirational quotes on social media but not being clear on WHO their niche is or what their brand stands for
• Hiring a fancy website designer before having a clear, compelling offer with proof of concept 
• Wasting time on obsessing over the social media algorithms and making fancy graphics for their posts, instead of focusing on the client-generating activities

Instead, I HIGHLY recommend STARTING with activities such as…

• Get clear on your niche & “Standout Elevator Pitch” about what you do as a coach
• Determine which marketing channel you’ll use to implement my “4 Basics of Client Attraction” (I share what those 4 basics are in my Free Private Training. Click here to check it out.)
• Get your first test clients or real clients to gather testimonials, referrals, and proof of concept
• Develop your compelling program or offer based on what your niche wants and needs the most

If you’re a new business owner, these steps can seem DAUNTING and you might be feeling indecisive about if you’re picking the “right” niche, marketing channel, and client-generating activities. 

If that is the case for you, I encourage you to schedule a Free Strategy Consult to learn more about how I can support you with your business foundations and marketing/sales strategy, or start with my Free Training teaching you my 5-Star Framework to booking clients.

How did I get into becoming a Marketing & Sales Coach and LinkedIn Lead Generation Service Provider? 

In case you’re wondering how I started as a coach, I thought I’d share my story with you…

I got my first coaching certifications in 2010 & knew I had a passion for business, personal development, and wellness.

But I didn’t know what I wanted to do with all my passions, so I ended up getting my Bachelor’s Degree in Entrepreneurship at Loyola Marymount University (one of the top entrepreneurship programs in the country).

Meanwhile, I started blogging and coaching on the side… It was fun & I was making some money from it, but I still had so much to learn before going “full-time” as a coach.

So when I graduated college, I immersed myself in learning entrepreneurship, marketing, sales, and managing a team by working for startups in the wellness and personal development industry. 

It was LONG hours, hard work, and HIGH expectations.

I worked in Business Development, Marketing, and even helped to recruit and manage a team of 17 people as a fresh college graduate… Talk about feeling overwhelmed! 🙆‍♀️

But in the startup world, things move quickly & you gotta have a “figure it out” mentality. 

Then, in 2017, the company I worked for was facing delays & had to let everyone go. 

So, I decided to utilize my years of coaching & business skills by helping life coaches, health coaches, and wellness professionals GROW their businesses.

I started a podcast & Facebook Group called Health Coach Nation with a lot of fear about if I could REALLY support myself as an entrepreneur.

But I learned quickly that I LOVED being in full control of creating my destiny and schedule. And focused on coaching myself through ALL the roadblocks one-by-one.   

Through my own trial and error and coaching hundreds of clients throughout the years- I built my “F.A.S.T. Framework” to help coaches & service providers book clients, overcome time management & mindset barriers, and grow a sustainable, profitable business.

Some other highlights along the way have been…

• Being able to go into coaching full-time & work from anywhere
• Growing my Facebook group to over 4,200 members
• Attracting amazing clients I love from my podcast, networking, SEO, social media, local marketing, and partnerships
• Being able to see many of my clients hit their first high-ticket sales, 6-figure year, and transform into confident coaches & business owners
• Being named as one of the top 25 coaches in Chicago, top 6 business coaches for health coaches, and top 10 podcasts for health coaches
• Launching successful courses, private coaching, and group coaching
• Being on over 85 podcasts, speaking at summits & online conferences, and more
