This episode is all about the transition from corporate roles to establishing successful executive coaching businesses. I’m pleased to introduce the concept of the "corporate to coach runway," and share my take on what you need to think about and some practical tools for this stage of your business journey.

Here is what we cover:

  • Embracing discomfort – as you start your business you must be willing to step out of your comfort zone in areas like marketing and sales.
  • Evolving your relationship with rejection – understanding that the process to gaining clients by definition must include (plenty of!) rejection.
  • Defining your financial runway - including minimum requirements, buffers and transitional income sources.
  • The reality - acknowledge that building a sustainable executive coaching business typically takes one to two years for consistent client flow and income.
  • Building a support network – exactly who should be in your custom built business support community.
  • Plus I’ll share a tool to help you with your business strategy basics before you get too deep!
