Create and Build a Successful Coaching Business
Many people have a desire to launch and grow a successful business, but it isn’t as easy as it seems. We all have great ideas, but to take that idea, and monetize it takes more than skill and luck. It takes discipline, skill, determination, and grit. Even then you are not guaranteed success. It is reported, 80% of coaches do not succeed.
Questions to consider:
- Do you know how to build and grow a business?
- What is your niche?
- What is your competition?
- What will the market bear?
- Can you monetize your business?
- Do you have the discipline to see your plan to fruition?
- Do you have a clear strategy and plan for success?
This section on the platform is dedicated to helping coaches set their businesses up for success. The information in each module is a set of principles which are a combination of best practices, research, and experiential knowledge I have gained and used while selling business at a Big Four consulting firm, helping others build successful businesses, and building my own coaching business to $250,000 in annual revenue while working part-time and without paid advertising. Each module includes a customizable business plan with action steps for you to build a successful business, questions to consider, worksheets, exercises and more all embedded within your Coachable Pro platform for easy access and organization.
