One of the most important elements of good marketing is connecting the dots between what your customers and clients want and the solution you offer.  Sometimes we think we may know what our ideal clients, but often times, we’re really guessing and that can mean there is a disconnect between your audience and your offers. This is the most common reason for people not signing up for your free resources and enrolling in your paid programs.  It’s also one of the reasons why people may sign up for your freebies but not invest in working with you – because they don’t understand how you can help them.

Today, we’re going to share 3 easy ways to find out what your ideal clients truly want, so you can attract more of your ideal clients and have more paying clients. 

Here’s what you’ll discover:

• How to gather helpful insights about what your ideal clients really want
• Which method will give you the most detailed and in-depth information
• Examples of questions to ask to get the information you want
• Where to use the information you gather

Tune in to find out how to you can easily find out the needs and desires of your prospects, so you can dramatically improve your marketing and attract more clients.

We are constantly interacting with Health Coaches and learning what obstacles they face when it comes to building their wellness business. Most of the coaches we talk to want to have a full-time thriving practice which we absolutely love. We know that each client you help will ripple out to their friends and family in a way that truly changes lives. 

That said, one of the most challenging situations a health coach faces is when they are trying to build their wellness business while also working another job. We get it – you need to keep paying the bills until your coaching business can replace your income. 

When this is the case it’s imperative that you become extremely intentional with your time as well as streamline your day-to-day tasks as much as possible. This week, we’re kicking off a two-part series called: Successfully Building A Health Coaching Business While Working Another Job.

In this episode you’ll discover…

• Why we are totally addicted to the 12-week planning model and why this process will help you reach your goals more quickly than anything else you’ve ever tried
• The key to understanding when you’re most productive and why time-blocking your schedule based on your unique rhythm is your path to success
• How outsourcing, even on a project-by-project, basis can be the catalyst you’ve been looking for to set your business up as a full-time practice

There is no time like the present to start planning for your future if quitting your job for a full-time coaching practice is a top priority for you.
