Are you considering scaling up your coaching business with group programs or online courses?

It seems like a no-brainer, doesn’t it?

There are so many marketers claiming to earn 7 figures while they sleep in these business models and they would love to teach YOU how they do it. 

Years into my business, I bought into that tactic and thought I would just put up a few online courses, make a bunch of passive income and that would leave me more time to coach.

While it’s true that the bulk of content creation is done up front, there are significant other costs to sell online programs or group coaching. The rule of thumb is:

The more people that you’d like to buy your online program the more marketing you’ll have to do.

It is NOT a build it and they will come scenario.

Let’s uncover the real-world costs of selling online courses, membership programs and group coaching and talk about a much more sustainable and savory way to increase your income as a coach.

EPISODE #73 - Do You Fit ONE of These Coach Archetypes?
Nail Your Niche strategy session with Rhonda

YOU might not need a coaching niche.

Niching is a strategic choice that helps you stand out in the crowd, become known more quickly, and earn more.

In my Nail Your Niche strategy session, coaches often start by saying something like this:

“I’ve been struggling to choose a coaching niche for so long because I haven’t found the RIGHT niche.”

Then, we dig deeper to uncover what’s really keeping them from make a choice.

·      “I don’t want to exclude anyone”.

·      “I’m afraid what people will think if I choose the niche that excites me the most.”

·      “I don’t have enough credentials to pull off that specialty.”

If you’re in this camp, these doubts are natural. YOU CAN break through these limiting mindsets and choose a niche wisely.

It’s a HUGE opportunity for you to step into courage and be bold. Something all business owners do.

Let’s talk about why it’s worth it to niche and one good reason not to. See what speaks loudest to you.

The coaching clients you’ve had love you! But you don’t have enough who pay well. You are starting to wonder ...

Where are the clients who value coaching enough to invest in it?

A better question is … how many people know you exist?

And, are you positioned to capture their attention in a professional way?

That’s why it’s smart to niche.

Look, I get it. This coaching niche thing can feel like torture. You've had ideas that sparked your passion once, but they didn’t pay off

But neither has trying to sell coaching around a certain topic or to a broad group.

It's time to create a niche that helps you stand out in the crowd. It’s centered around a very specific group of people and their unique problems in the way of something they want urgently.

That’s how you become a coach in high demand and command prices that pay you well.

You’ve spent money and time to train as a coach. You’ve chosen a narrow and viable niche (at least I hope you have!) You’ve branded, put up a website and faithfully posted on social media … so MANY times!

And now you’ve got a Discovery Call scheduled. You want to enroll this client! You need to enroll this client!

But already, before the call, you can feel imposter syndrome creeping in. You don’t like to sell. You don’t want to have to sell yourself but YOU THINK that’s what this call is all about.

You must convince this person that you are their best resource right now so they can be more and accomplish more.

It’s too much pressure. Stop pressuring yourself! Instead prepare yourself for your call in a more peaceful and client-centered way. Take the spotlight off of you.

On too many new coach's websites, I’m seeing either:

1.     No lead magnet but instead an offer for a free call high up on the website. Truly, offering a free call as a first offer is like asking a first date to meet your parents. It’s too much too soon. There’s a better way.

2.     Or a lead magnet that with a Google search for the topic would turn up hundreds of thousands of articles on the same concept. So not unique enough.

And that’s what this episode is about – what I call coachey lead magnets that won’t build the kind of trust you need to attract ideal paying clients. Find the full transcript and other resources at prosperouscoach.com/214.

Have you decided what format you’ll use for your coaching? It’s simple but important.

There are tradeoffs to all 3 real time methods — in person, on web cam, or simply by phone. (For the sake of this episode, I’m not going to talk about coaching online through writing. While I have coached some through writing it’s my belief that real coaching is done in real time, where you and your client can hear each other and respond.

There’s a whole mindset around that, which I’ll dig into first before I get into details about these different formats of coaching. Find the full transcript for episode #213 at prosperouscoach.com/213
