One of the biggest challenges any coach will face is that of hiring staff. As your business grows the need for help becomes essential. Inevitably you’ll do everything yourself early on, but as the growth hastens so will your desire to bring on help. For me, it was as soon as I hit 6 figures that I sought out help. For others, it may be closer to 7 figures. But no matter when you decide to start, the challenges and questions we all encounter are the same. It’s why I brought recruiting expert Laura Couvillon on this episode. You’ll know all of the hiring to dos and not to dos after listening!

Social media is an essential part of a coaching business. You may not have known this when you got started in the industry but if you’ve been around for any amount of time, you certainly know now. It has given us the amazing opportunity to reach our exact audience, anywhere in the world, with a single post. There are countless positives when it comes to social media. But with every positive there is a corresponding challenge. You have the suppression of posts, the changing of algorithms, the trolls, etc… That’s why I brought social media expert Katie Wight on this episode. To get some clarity on best practices of what's working now and where our focus needs to be.

The fear of speaking in public is the granddaddy of all fears. It’s often said that people fear public speaking more than death. As a coach if you aren’t out there speaking (whether that be on a virtual or live stage) in front of your audience you’re going to get left behind. It’s really that important. If you’re one of the many that are scared to speak on stage then this episode is for you. Because I reveal the 3 shifts you can make to instantly overcome that fear of speaking.

If you sell anything online, whether you're a coach or creative, you know it’s not as simple as just putting up a website and then counting the moolah that comes in. There are a number of tools, software and strategies that come into play in order to take someone from prospect to customer. But for my money, NOTHING is more powerful at turning a prospect into a customer than having a High Converting Presentation. There’s so much information out there about how to run a presentation but unfortunately a lot of it is built on misbeliefs. That’s why during this episode I lay out the 3 biggest mistakes I see coaches and creatives making when they run their presentations. Fix these 3 things and you're on your way to a High Converting Presentation.

As a coach, or even just a human being for that matter, you will encounter your fair share of challenges throughout your life. Some of these challenges you’re going to overcome with ease and flying colors. While others may test you to your core. But there’s one quality that if you possess it, your chances of overcoming challenges will be greatly enhanced. That quality is positivity. This one quality will have the greatest impact on whether or not you succeed in almost anything in life. It’s so important that I brought Jon Gordon on to this week’s episode as he’s the go to guy in this field as a best settling author & inspirational teacher who has helped millions of people have a more positive mindset.

When it comes to your marketing, your funnel is the driving force behind your profitability. The more optimized the funnel, the greater the profitability. Period. Most coaches and online course creators know this, but what many don’t know is how to really go about making sure their funnels are optimized. They tend to over do things or not do enough. When in reality it’s a fine line that you need to walk in order to get it right. In this episode, I brought funnel expert Michelle Fernandez on so that she can share with you the mistakes you need to avoid as well as the optimization you need to do in order to get the most out of your funnels!

As coaches, we get into this industry to create freedom. Time freedom and financial freedom. With this goal in mind, it’s essential that we create smart money habits. The kind that exponentially speeds up our journey to that desired freedom stage of life. Now while that sounds nice, most people don’t really know how to do this properly and systematically so that the process is simple as opposed to confusing. In this episode, I brought my good friend Mel Abraham on so that he could share with you his uniquely effective strategies on how to build your own money machine no matter your current financial situation.

One of the most common mistakes I see coaches make is they try to copy the path that somebody else took to succeed even if it goes against how they’re wired. Don’t get me wrong, you should definitely follow certain systems if you want to replicate results, but the majority of your business needs to be molded to your own strengths and your goals so that you are aligned without any unnecessary friction. In this episode, I brought my friend Graham Cochrane on so he could share with you how to make sure you get this critical step of alignment in place so that everything you do is an expression of your vision.

It’s no secret that AI is not only here but here to stay. In fact, the AI we see today is probably the worst version that we’ll ever see. This is a bit obvious as with time comes innovation and progress, so like the internet once saw the slow dial ups, AI will certainly progress as well. As for how far? Only time will tell. But what I do know is that the more you understand it the better you can either prepare or use it to your advantage. That’s why on this episode I brought Ben Angel of Entrepreneur magazine on to discuss what a future with AI might look like.
