The Business of Coaching
Welcome to the Association for Coaching’s (AC) Newsletter. In this week’s edition:
Jeremy Lazarus, Master Coach and Master NLP Trainer, joins podcast host Rob Lawrence to discuss how having a sales mindset helps you focus on serving your clients and translates into creating a marketing strategy for your coaching business.
Jeremy shares how focusing on the power of your coaching skills to help clients change their lives, rather than your insecurities or self-doubt, is the key to success. He explains how you can overcome marketing blocks, embracing marketing as an investment in yourself and those you serve.
This discussion is part of our podcast series Make Time for Marketing. Discover tips and insights into marketing your coaching business from our expert guests.
“Seize the temptation to compare yourself with experts. Compare yourself with yourself and see where you're learning as a coach and progressing and see where you can help your clients.”
