You probably hear about workshops, masterclasses & bootcamps all the time. Invite after invite in your inbox. There’s a real good reason for this and it’s because they work! They are super effective strategies that let coaches and creators connect with and convert their audience. But not even those strategies compete with the effectiveness of in person live workshops. However, there’s one big problem with live in-person workshops and that’s that few know how to run them correctly. So tune...

As a coach, your ability to attract your audience and get them to convert into your programs is largely going to determine how successful you become. That’s why learning how to write compelling copy should be at the top of every coach's skill development list.

Being a coach or expert requires you to be or become somebody worth following. As soon as you decide to be a coach you're announcing to your audience that you are a leader. But it’s not good enough to just announce you're a coach and leader. You have to have something that initially draws your audience in and attracts them to you. And that thing is charisma. We all know somebody with charisma. It’s hard to put your finger on what it is and how to develop it, but in this episode I share with...

You’ll notice quite a few similarities between the top coaches in any industry. But one similarity that tends to be unanimous among all top coaches is that they all consistently show up on video. That’s because video is one of the easiest pieces of content to leverage and when it’s done right it tends to create an instant level of authority. However, a lot of coaches get intimidated by the idea of being on camera. This is why I wanted to have my guest Xayli Barclay on this week as she’s an...

Most coaches I run into tend to over complicate things. From their online courses to their messaging. They tend to think that more is better when in reality, oftentimes less is more. Especially in the case of your messaging. If your messaging is complicated or unclear, your audience is going to move on. My guest on this week's episode, Donald Miller, is a legend at this (among other things). During this episode he shares… How to simplify your messaging down to a tagline so that you own a...

Most coaches I come across have amazing content that provides a ton of value but they struggle to sell their stuff. This is a super common problem in the industry. The good news is that it’s relatively easy to fix because it almost always stems from 1 of 3 mistakes. You're either delivering too much information, selling at the end of your presentation, or sharing the wrong stories. During this episode I’ll go over what to do in each scenario as well as:  The difference between...

The majority of coaches understand the importance of selling from stage (virtual & live) but unfortunately, due to fear of speaking, they never cultivate or utilize this immensely valuable skill. You see the second you step on a virtual or live stage, you're instantly viewed as an authority figure. Making your audience way more receptive to what you are presenting & offering. During this episode we are going to tackle this head on so that by the end of it, fear of speaking is a thing...

Most course creators and coaches are left spinning their wheels when their offer isn’t selling. Oftentimes they'll think it’s their content in the course that’s the issue or sometimes they think they need to add more “how to” information to their presentation to sell it. Neither of these are true. In fact, I have found that there are 3 main reasons why your offer isn’t selling and once you fix these issues your course is likely to fly off the digital shelves. I go over these 3 mistakes and...

As a coach, one of the most important skills you can possess is the ability to communicate your value to the marketplace. And the best way to do that is by speaking on stages - virtual and/or live. However, the fear of speaking publicly usually stops coaches dead in their tracks. This is one of the most common fears in the world and it’s one I want to help you tackle in this episode. During this episode I share with you 3 of the most powerful strategies I teach to help coaches and course...

One of the most common phrases you’ll hear in the coaching space is to “stop selling time for money”. And while I wholeheartedly support this idea, I don’t think it applies to every coach. It totally depends on what season you are in. If you’re new, then getting some reps in is a good idea and if you’re a bit more seasoned then by all means you should look into transitioning away from trading time for money. In this episode, you’ll discover when and how to go about this transition as well as...

If you look next to any successful company or coach, you’ll surely notice a strong personal brand by their side. In today’s business world, a strong personal brand is essential if you want your business to reach its full potential. In fact, your personal brand often precedes your introduction. Meaning people are usually looking you up before they ever decide to buy from you or reach out. I can’t stress the importance of your personal brand enough, and it’s why I had Personal Branding Expert -...

A common characteristic I notice that some coaches and course creators I work with have, is they tend to focus on what can go wrong instead of what can go right. For example, when they are getting ready to do their first big launch all of these negative “what ifs” tend to come to the surface. When in reality, a much more positive outlook would be “what can I do to make sure things go right?” My guest on this week’s episode, Niyc Pidgeon, is a Positive Psychologist and an expert on making this...

This is the perfect episode for anyone looking to create the...

Too often in life and business we let out circumstances dictate our results. We’ve all been there before where we had an opportunity to take a positive step forward and immediately conditioned based thinking patterns took over and halted our progress. Maybe it was a course, mentor, etc.. and instead of moving forward you questioned the cost or the time it would require and instead decided to stay in your own comfortable pattern. In this episode, I interview transformation expert Mary...
