If you share your info and expertise on your podcast, coaching is a great way to turn your podcast into a coaching business.
To be a successful coach, you need to be able to get your clients from point A to point B. People pay coaches who can create a transformation in their lives.
The most effective way to do this is to find people who are following your journey but are a few years or steps behind you. Help them take your journey by avoiding the pitfalls and mistakes you made.
DEMONSTRATE
Your podcast provides you a great opportunity to demonstrate your coaching. It allows you to show listeners the transformation they can experience.
On your episodes, you can interview those you’ve helped. You can help potential clients. The episodes can simply be sharing your plan and process and offering to help people through your coaching business.
STRATEGY CALL
Invite your listeners to have a strategy or discovery call with you.
On these calls, define their goals. Where do they want to be in one or three or five years?
Next, determine where they are now. What have they tried that has worked? What hasn’t worked?
Now, what needs to happen to get from today to their goals? Develop that plan with them.
Use a phrase like, “It sounds like if we do this, we can accomplish that.” The two of you develop the plan together. They are part of the process to get to the solution.
Once that plan is developed, ask if they would like some help implementing it. If they do, you can then discuss the options within your coaching business. That’s it.
PAYMENT
For payment, they can simply send you money via PayPal or Venmo or some other service. You don’t need a complicated backend system. My first client in my coaching business sent me a money order.
COACHING BUSINESS GROWTH WITH PARTNERS
Once your strategy calls are working, find partners who can get you in front of more potential clients. That is what our interview today is all about.
