After working with hundreds of coaches on how to set up a successful coaching business, I've noticed there are 2 things that seriously slow everyone down:
- No Niche
- Technology Nightmares
These are both way more easily solve-able than you might think.
PROBLEM ONE: THE NICHE
For the ‘No Niche' problem, I've helped literally hundreds of coaches figure out their niche, each in the space of about 11 minutes. I recently took all of the different ways I've ever used to figure out and pinpoint exactly what someone's most authentic, heart-aligned niche is, and got it down to 21 powerfully effective Niche-Identification methods that I cover in a program called: “Your Perfect Niche”.
PROBLEM TWO: THE TECH
Instead of creating a hundred tech problems for yourself to get your coaching business up and running – create just one. Find one of the half a dozen or so online business systems that are out there that do everything you'll ever need to grow your coaching business from zero to 7-figures and beyond.
You'll still take a while to adapt to it – just like you did when you first started using Microsoft Word or Excel, but…
…When you've gotten used to it and had a bit of back and forth with the software's support team (and hopefully realised they're actually super helpful!), then you'll be set up for massive long-term success.
Everything from setting up your website and opt-in page to sending emails to your new list to building info-products that you can get everyone to promote – can all happen within one relatively easy-to-use system… instead of 10 different systems that don't play well with each other.
You can be a ‘One Wo/Man Band' who builds up a multi six or even seven figure coaching business by implementing the ‘Never Ending Stream Of Clients' system – without spending half of your earnings on an expensive team that you have to babysit.
Eventually, when you can do the basics yourself, you can invest in maybe one Virtual Assistant who can do the tech things more quickly and easily than you and won't be able to mess you around, because you know how long certain things are supposed to take… freeing you up to do what you love and what you get paid for: COACHING.
Granted, there will still be glitches along the way as you get things set up. And you may not be in a position to hire a Virtual Assistant right now.
That's why I give everyone who signs up for the “Never Ending Stream Of Clients” program full 1-year access to calls with my own superstar Virtual Assistant – so that she can quickly (often within minutes, right in front of your eyes) help you solve whatever tech-issue is slowing you down from sky-rocketing your coaching business.
