I am going to reveal the secrets to <\/span>how to become a professional life coach<\/span><\/span> with paying clients. <\/span><\/h3>\n

Are you tired of trying to talk your friends into doing a free coaching session with them? Do you cringe when you tell your potential clients what you charge? Or do believe you offer so much value you could double your rates? Do you lie awake at night trying to figure out how to find clients? <\/span><\/p>\n

This <\/span>coach training<\/span><\/span> will give you solutions you can start using immediately.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Coach Training<\/a><\/span> Secret #1: If you want to know h<\/a>ow to become a professional life coach<\/a>,<\/span><\/span> get a coach. Pay for coaching. \u00a0Don\u2019t be a hypocrite. If you don\u2019t think coaching is valuable, who is going to believe you when you try to convince them? Plus, if you are paying someone you will value their time and expertise more than if you aren\u2019t. It\u2019s just human nature.<\/p>\n

Coach Training<\/strong><\/span><\/span> Secret #2: When people ask me about h<\/strong><\/span>ow to become a professional life coach<\/strong>, I tell them to stop asking ‘HOW’ and just g<\/span><\/span>et started, and take massive action! Starting a coaching practice is like ripping a bandage off. Do it fast and get through the painful part as quick as possible. Write a short term goal that you know you can achieve in 2-3 months, and really go for it!<\/span><\/p>\n

Coach Training<\/strong><\/span><\/span> Secret #3: If you want to experience the truth about h<\/strong><\/span>ow to become a professional life coach<\/strong>,<\/span><\/span> you need to work at least 4-5 hours a week on your business. Work is making phone calls to schedule free sessions. What? You\u2019ve already done a million free sessions and everyone acts like they\u2019re doing you a favor? Change your mind set from a \u201cfree\u201d session to a \u201cstrat<\/span>egy\u201d session. And let people know what type of result to expect. For example tell them they will leave the session with written positive outcomes for their relationship or career, new awareness of what\u2019s causing challenges in their lives or businesses, an action plan to help them move toward their goals. Even if you give them all the answers, 90% of people will not do what it takes to succeed\u2026which is why they need you. Use urgency or scarcity. \u00a0Say something like, \u201cI only have a few complimentary sessions for the rest of this quarter, do you want to be one of the 5?\u201d<\/p>\n

Coach Training<\/span><\/span><\/span> Secret #4: Wondering about h<\/span><\/span>ow to become a professional life coach<\/span><\/span><\/span> who has leads raining down from the sky? Commit to 10 hours a week of leveraged lead generation activities such as web video, blogs, website, online Google advertising, email, public speaking, and joint ventures. \u00a0This type of activity doesn’t produce anything in the short term, so do<\/span>n’t look for instant gratification. \u00a0You’re playing for the long term anyway, right? \u00a0The good news is that if you keep up the work on this high level stuff, it’ll pay off BIG TIME for you in the future. \u00a0Most people just won’t take the time to do it\u00a0consistently\u00a0enough to get to the end game. \u00a0And they wonder how to become a professional life coach<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Now you know the secrets to <\/span>how to become a professional life coach<\/span><\/span><\/span> with a viable practice. If you are making 4-5 hours of calls per week to schedule free sessions, you should be able to set 2 to 4 free sessions a week\u2026If you close 1 or 2 of those per week, you will have 4 to 8 new clients per month. After 2 or 3 months you will be close to having a full practice, and with a few referrals you will be on your way to making a nice income.<\/span><\/p>\n
