I am delighted to share with you some of my experiences in
developing my practice as a Life Coach, in the hope that they
will help you and make your process of becoming a successful
coach painless and easy.
When I started my practice, I did not have clear ideas of which
sort of coaching I was 'supposed' to do, whether I needed to
focus on a particular niche or a particular topic; I asked many
opinions to other coaches, I did many attempts of marketing, but
somehow I was struggling. I was putting a lot of pressure on
myself, as I needed to be financially independent; I was also
worrying about my lack of experience in marketing and running a
business and I was feeling stuck.
I was trying to find an answer from the 'outside', and it
doesn't work this way.
And then one day it daunted on me: I needed to simply connect my
business with my heart. I needed to go inside myself, and start
from who I am, my values, my unique way of being and develop my
way of coaching from there.
And these are my advices to you:
* Go inside yourself, listen to the extraordinary and unique
person you truly are and what you love most; in this way you
will discover your unique way of coaching, your brand, what
makes you different from all the other coaches out there.
* Then, you need to find out in which ways you want to market
your unique way of coaching, whether it is public speaking,
writing, seminars,...you need to discover what is that you love
doing most.
* And once you know this, you can decide to which niche you are
going to market.
So, if you are connected with who you are and your passions and
do what you enjoy, everything will become very easy and
effortless.
And another thing that I would advise, is to ask for help when
you need; some people think that because we are coaches we can
first of all organize our time as if we have 55 hours in a day
and then we are capable of doing everything; well, my advice
would be to ask for help if you do not know about i.e. internet,
or marketing, or accountancy, just ask for help: you would make
your life much easier, and give you the time to focus on what
you love most. And you deserve this.
