 choosing a coach
What are the key questions coaching clients asks when choosing a coach?

Finding your true offering creates room for renewal in your work.

 

I think the heart of our offer as coaches is renewal and rejuvenation. This is what self-development ultimately offers: a new perspective on ourselves, others, and on life, which brings a new kind of freshness that connects us more deeply to the vitality of life.

 

The ‘Coach as Entrepreneur’ course has three elements:

 

  1. Cultivating an entrepreneurial way of being

  2. Teaching a set of practices for building a viable business

  3. Nourishing the growth of a community of practitioners

 

Together, these elements generate the particular kind of renewal that is offered by this course.

 

What is missing for most struggling coaches is an entrepreneurial way of being. In my experience, there is no simple ten-easy-steps formula for building a successful coaching business. These formulations have the appeal of simplicity. They fit nicely in the confines of a book. However, they lack the nuance necessary to face – and respond creatively to – the actual circumstances that coaches find themselves in while building their business.

 

Building a successful coaching practice is not easy. It requires a certain way of attuning and sensing the circumstances and opportunities available, and certain skills to respond creatively and effectively to build the business. I’m calling this mixture of attunement, sensitivities, and embodied skills an “entrepreneurial way of being.”

What do we mean by ‘Entrepreneur’?

There are many definitions for this word. In my mind, what makes someone an entrepreneur is they embody a certain way of being that is characterized by two elements:

 

  • First, an entrepreneur is passionate about serving a certain community of people – their target market– who are facing certain circumstances. This passion focuses their efforts in many important ways.

 

  • Second, an entrepreneur is committed to generating value for people in their market, but even more than that, they are committed to renewing the lives of these people by offering new possibilities in a way the community already values.

 

Entrepreneurs are innovators. They create what I call unique entrepreneurial offers that help to differentiate them in the marketplace and establish their identity as a leader.

 

I find that nearly every struggling coach doesn’t have the right focus. For example, they consider their offer to be “coaching,” and will coach anyone who wants coaching. By doing this, they believe they will widen their market. But the effect is the opposite: by doing this, they narrow their market to such an extent that they actually have trouble attracting clients.

Core Design Practices

Can you visualize yourself as an entrepreneur?

There lies the key!  We see ourselves as coaches.  We invested significant time, money and effort to develop as a coach and earn a coaching credential. 

 

Yet, it is only half of the success recipe.  The other required half is entrepreneurship ~ the business of coaching. 

 

In this three-day workshop and six-month journey, we will equip you with the skills and competencies to develop and grow your coaching business, using nine core design practices for entrepreneurial coaches.

How do I find my true offering as a coach?

Whenever you extend your offer to someone, you put them in the position of having to assess your offer before they know whether they should accept it.

 

Potential clients need to answer four questions for themselves:

 

  1. Is it relevant to me?

  2. Is it useful to me?

  3. Is it valuable to me?

  4. Do I trust this person to deliver this value?

 

For a potential client, answering these questions is not easy. You have to make every effort to make it easier for them to answer these questions. If you speak about your offer using generic language like “coaching,” you make it much, much harder for potential clients to understand and accept your offer.

 

Coaches can learn how to create offers that are easy for potential clients to understand and accept.
