Life Coach Business Building School with Debbie Shadid

Do you have ongoing doubts about your niche?  Does this uncertainty leave you stalled out in your business?

In today’s episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I’m speaking with Erin Thompson, a Performance and Confidence Coach for Senior Living Leaders. We discuss how Erin determined her most viable and profitable niche. We talk about her love for “my people with the gray hair” and her desire to support Senior Living Leaders.

Through coaching, exploration, and a mindset shift, Erin began to feel more confident about her coaching. She now knows she can make a difference in both fields, inspiring her to take her business to the next level.

As we work to grow our coaching businesses, it can be tempting to try and be everything to everybody, but when it comes down to it, it's important to narrow your focus. When you hone in on a specific area and become an expert in that field, you will be able to provide higher-quality services and gain more clients.

So if you’re ready to make your business stand out and increase your profitability, then be sure to tune in and learn from Erin Thompson's journey!

In my 24 years of business consulting and coaching, I can truly say that mastering your marketing message is probably the most important thing you can do for your business. It’s the foundation of all of your marketing which is how people connect with you.

In today’s episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I’m talking about the second “pre-marketing” activity that will help you sell your coaching. In the previous episode, I discussed the importance of narrowing and understanding your niche. This week, we are focusing on mastering your marketing message so you can better communicate who you help and why they should hire you.

Clients buy when you have explained their problem better than they can and when you show them why they need and want the transformation you offer with your coaching. I’ll walk you through my 6 steps to help you craft the perfect message, one that is clear and concise.

Mastering your marketing message is critical for your business's success. When people connect with your message, they engage with you; when they don’t, they scroll right past you. 

So, if you want to know how to get better results with your marketing, be sure to tune in to the episode.

Many of the coaches I speak with have the same question - do you really need a niche for your business? 

In today’s episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I’m addressing the niche doubts you might have and answering many of the most frequently asked questions. 

This episode is the first installment of my all new 8-part business marketing series.  In this marketing series I’ll be sharing everything you need to know about how to market your life coaching business organically. (Organic market is FREE marketing.)

In my first two episodes, I will be discussing the “pre-marketing” activities that will set you up for success. I’ll talk about my recommended niche research so you can better understand your niche. Knowing your niche will help you create an enticing marketing message that people can relate and connect to. I want you to speak to a specific demographic,  and address their unique problems 

If you’re curious about how having a clear niche will help you grow your life coaching business, tune in and join the conversation where I will be sharing all the important details!

As a business growth coach for coaches, I’m always looking for ways to help my clients expand their business.  That’s what the Design, Live, Thrive Summit was all about.  The results for my clients were fantastic and the attendees have given incredible feedback on how impactful the speakers were.

In today’s episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I’ll give you the run down of what it took to organize this first time event. A 2-day Summit with 16 speakers was a big undertaking and I worked with my team to execute it in just 3 months.

Listen as I share more about everything I did, from coming up with the perfect Summit name, to making sure that the event goes as smoothly as possible. As a Summit hostess I had 3 areas to balance. 1.Preparing my clients to speak and shine in their talks. 2. Marketing the event so we had plenty of people signed up. 3. Executing the event live.

So if you are a coach or if you’re just curious about what it really takes to put together a virtual summit, then come join me in this episode because I will cover all the details!

As coaches, our ultimate goal is to make a positive impact. The Design, Live, Thrive Summit 2 day workshop series was our opportunity for women to learn about how impactful coaching can be. Coaching is transformative!

In today’s episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I will be joined by 5 of the 16 incredible coaches and speakers from the recently concluded Design Live Thrive Summit. From planning their signature talks to delivering them at the live virtual event, these women will tell us what they learned and what they thought about the whole experience.

Preparing for the signature talks was a substantial amount of work for each of the speakers. Some of the coaches were new in business and wrote their first marketing copy, learned how to use the technology that was needed to make the most of the Summit, and they also spoke in front of many people for the first time.  All of these efforts were made to make sure that the Summit was a great experience for the attendees. (And it was!) We wanted each session to focus on something important that the attendees could remember and use to make change in their lives that day. Based on the feedback we’ve received from speakers already, we give the attendees so many great insights, they loved it!

Join our conversation as we dive deep into the highlights of the Summit and the things that we could have done better to give everyone – the speakers and the audience an amazing Summit experience.

Do you want to know how I doubled my business in 2022? I’ve narrowed the steps down to make this super simple and easy for you to follow. I’m sharing the wins and the challenges I faced and conquered on the way to reaching my goal.

In this episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I’ll tell you all of the important details about how I was able to double my business. I’ll tell you the things that worked, the things that didn’t work, and all the necessary yet painful changes that I had to make to grow my business, and to serve my clients better.

As I prepared my year end assessment, I determined that I was able to support a total of 60 women through my coaching program. I was also able to help 1531 women by showing them how to create a more professional coaching business brand through my Canva webinar. And I was able to encourage 261 people to take action through the various workshops I’ve had this year.

So, if you're curious about how I managed to accomplish all of this, make sure to tune in and find out my secret!

A coach holds up a mirror in front of someone and helps them see things they couldn't see before. Sometimes it's just small changes and shifts that can make a big difference in someone's life.

In today’s episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I will be joined by 5 amazing coaches who will be speaking at the Design Live Thrive Summit about themes surrounding women. Each of these coaches has a variety of credentials and coaching backgrounds, and their presentations are based on their unique personal experiences.

Along with receiving detailed guidance (inside of the Business Building Boutique) on writing their signature talks, they also talk about how working with other coaches has broadened their perspectives and made the summit preparations a memorable and beneficial experience.

So if you want to have a glimpse of the topics and ideas that will be covered in the summit on January 13 & 14, 2023, as well as the kind of support that these coaches received as they crafted their talks,(and what they will do with this signature talk after the Summit) then make sure to tune in and join us in this conversation!

Building a coaching business takes skill. Most coaches work on the skill of coaching, and they’ve been led to believe that it will be “easy” to grow a coaching business. 

It is possible to grow a successful coaching business but it takes more than you expect.  Listen to learn about the gift you can give yourself and your business.

In this episode of the Life Coach Business Building Podcast, I will be laying out what you need to know and the actions that you need to take in order to build your business while genuinely enjoying it.

I understand that you may have felt frustrated as you’ve tried to figure it out, especially when you see other coaches thrive. But here’s the thing, even the coaches with the “quick success stories” had to put in more work and time than you realize. 

So if you are ready to focus on what it takes to “realistically” grow your coaching business, then join me in this conversation, and let’s unwrap this beautiful gift together!
