Does this sound like a good strategy: Find other influencers on social media that do what you want to do, then hang out in the comments of their posts and stalk their fans and try to 'slide into their DMs' and ask them a bunch of awkward questions to try to get them to reveal their pain points, then sell them on the solution? That's the strategy that they taught in the first business coaching program that I enrolled it. It didn't make sense then and it makes even less sense now.

I've never brought in a coaching client through cold outreach and you don't need to either. Instead you can use Content Marketing to attract them to you.

In this episode, I'll explain:

Most coaching certification programs are a borderline scam. They sell people on the dream of being an entrepreneur, waking up whenever you want, picking your dream clients, strolling down to the beach to do some work for 3 hours a day. It sounds nice, but why is it so few entrepreneurs actually make a decent amount of money online?

Here is the reality, a lot of business coaching and entrepreneurship get sold on this dream (which is possible and very attainable) but they use this type of marketing and don't teach the actual high income skills that are actually required to thrive online. They make people think that its the product, offer or certification that will bring in the business.
