Are You So Good Your Clients ‘Desert You’?

If you’re an excellent life coach whose clients tend to do so well, so quickly, that they soon no longer need you, here's some great news.

Because, if you’re that good, you probably feel should have more clients than you can handle, but perhaps getting those new clients isn’t proving as easy as you hoped …

In which case, you probably want:

· More referrals

· More leads

· More high-paying clients

· Less time spent promoting your practice

· More ‘billable time’

· More of your own lifestyle goals to come true…

Well, here’s the good news from one specialist life coach marketer: you can have all of those things, and soon.

Because, unlike most marketing companies who talk about ‘tailored solutions’ and then try to use a template, or ‘one size fits all’ approach to promoting your business, I specialise in promoting life coaches and similar professionals. That means I know where your problems are most likely to lie and, more importantly, I know from experience exactly what the best fix is likely to be.

But that doesn’t mean all life coaches are the same, either. In fact, if there’s a more individual bunch of professionals than life coaches, I’ve yet to find it. That’s why I listen first of all, to how you feel things are going and where you may feel they’re going wrong.

Sometimes that means I can reassure you about a problem that’s actually less of a big deal than you feared. Other times I might point out something you hadn’t spotted. But that’s my job. Once we’ve got it straight, identified the problems and discussed solutions, you can leave most of it to me. I take away the fear of 'How do I do that?' and replace it with 'Consider it done'.

So you can get on with what you’re great at (at which I’d be, shall we say, less gifted), and you leave me to do what I specialise in, namely:

· Getting you more referrals

· Getting you more leads

· Turning more leads into clients

· Getting you more high-paying clients

· Giving you more paid time

· Getting you closer to your goals and even considering new, more ambitious goals

But you can do your own life coaching! Let’s just say I can give you the opportunity.

Talk About Focus!

Phew! Got back late yesterday from a weekend with our daughter and three grandchildren...

Hello again.

Talk about focused effort - and calm under pressure. I thought we could work quite hard, I thought I was pretty good under pressure, but seeing my daughter not just coping but managing superbly makes me realise just how easy my life is most of the time. And it made me appreciate it, too.

If you still have children at home, or you work as a teacher or child carer, or you spend a lot of time with your grandchildren, you will understand. But how quickly we forget!

I've had my two children, and 'inherited' two more almost exactly ten years younger, and wouldn't have missed being a parent - but I wouldn't choose to do it again, either...

And life is about choices. Not every decision we make turns out to be a wise one, but it was still ours to make. Without exception, we make the best choice we can at any given time, given the circumstances, what we believe and how much we know, so it follows that we make better choices when we know more and can think more clearly.

Sometimes that requires a bit of distance, or a crisis or crossroads in our life. Often, it requires more courage than we think we have, but we all have more courage than we know. When the pain of being where we are exceeds the (often exaggerated) pain of making a change, we make the change. And usually find the pain is nothing like we expected.

But to make a real go of a new venture, it does us no harm at all to be reminded just what real focus and calm under pressure is. Find yourself a young mum and prepare to be amazed!
