Build Your Business
for Change Coaches
Are you a Change Coach who’s looking for next steps in getting your coaching business off the ground or to the next level?
Build Your Business
is a 4-week program that will
give you everything you need
to hit the ground running in
your coaching business.
Is Build Your Business for You?
You’ll benefit from BYB if you can answer yes to any of these statements:
You don’t know the first place to begin when it comes to setting up a coaching business (that’s totally okay and this course will change that!)
You have a website and/or coaching business but you feel stuck, have no momentum and don’t have enough clients.
You could use tactical support and feedback on things related to pricing, finding/talking with prospective clients, knowing how to create a simple website, or building a mailing list.
You’re ready to hit the ground running and have real progress to show at the end of a month.
You want to get out in the world in a bigger way through speaking, referrals, or talking with more potential clients each week.
What’s Included
An initial assessment to see where you are in the business building process, what you want, what you already have in place, and what you need. We’ll personally assess what sort of business you want to create so that you’re investing your time in what’s ideal for you.
Four interactive, 2-hour “work” sessions where you’ll see demos on how to attract clients and have client enrollment conversations. We’ll also cover how to create an effective website, take payments and discuss Social Media practices. You’ll be able to ask questions and get personal feedback on everything you do throughout the month.
The Engaged Space with Barb Patterson and Rohini Ross, a 30 day self-guided program designed to help you engage from a curious, “dumb” place as you take consistent action and gain momentum in your business.
A Quick Start Resource Guide with information on everything you need to start your business, including website and social media tools, and information about podcasting, course platforms, bookkeeping, scheduling, and payment systems.
Recordings of calls with Steve Chandler (the “godfather of coaching”) on selling and client attraction and Michelle Barry Franco on messaging and speaking.
Forum support throughout the month as you take action on the ideas and lessons shared in the program.
Testimonials
Build Your Business was much more than i expected. I had a number of new insights about where I want to go with the business that quite surprised me and I’m loving following the “nudges” as they grow and evolve into real offerings in our business.
-Bill DeKramer
I loved the Build Your Business course. It felt like a kind hand leading me through all the bits of starting my business I’d been intimidated by for so long. The BYB team are wonderful, all of them have their own expertise and collectively they’ve helped me feel I can have a successful coaching business.
-Verity Smith
Such a great team of experts leading this programme. Nothing is too much, no question is unanswered, great content and support. Also loved the Engaged Space as a resource I know I will use again and again. Thank you!
