It sounds a bit unethical to think about how to get life coaching clients<\/a><\/strong> through seduction. When you think about it though, shoving coaching down people\u2019s throats isn\u2019t the way to go either. Exploring the art of how to get life coach clients without being salesy or pushy is appealing, especially since that seems to be they way most coaches do it. If you want to be able to enroll new clients before you become a sales superstar, there is hope.<\/p>\n

How To Get Life Coaching Clients To Want You<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s start by thinking about how to get life coaching clients<\/strong> not to want you. It\u2019s a bit like dating. There are steps to go through to get from meeting someone to marrying them. When I first met my husband at a friends\u2019 house, I thought he was interesting enough to talk to again. If he had asked me to marry him on that first meeting, I would have thought there was something wrong with him and that would have ended any possible romance. I wasn\u2019t emotionally engaged enough to think about a long term relationship at that time. In coaching it\u2019s the same. You need your potential clients to emotionally see you as the access to having the life of their dreams.<\/p>\n

Flirting With Potential Clients<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m not advocating flirting with your coaching clients by talking in a deep, husky voice or telling them you\u2019re dressed in your lacey pajamas. But there is an art of creating uncertainty in where the conversation is going. How to get life coaching clients<\/span> is not to have the attitude of, \u201cI\u2019ll coach anyone. That sounds too much like \u201cI\u2019ll date anyone.\u201d That\u2019s desperation. I let people know that the reason I do a free session is to see if coaching together might be a mutual fit and that I only work with a select few. It\u2019s not a lie, it\u2019s true. I value my time too much to work with people who are not a good fit.<\/p>\n

They key to how to get life coaching clients<\/strong> is similar to dating. You want to provide enough value that they want to talk to you again and that they see you as the access to having the life they want because you have provided so much value. It\u2019s only then do you think about taking the relationship to the next level because just like in dating, being too easy doesn\u2019t pay off.<\/p>\n
