How To Hit $5,000 Months As A Coach Without Burning Out! (Jennie’s Story Part 2)

Remember Jennie, our lovely health coach who grew her business too quickly by making the biggest mistake I see all health coaches make? (If you didn’t get a chance to read Jennie’s story, see my previous post 'Jennie's Story Part 1: How Jennie overcame every obstacle in her Health Coaching Business'.)

In my next post, I'm going to share with you just how Jennie turned her business around and is now able to work 1.5 days per week while earning $5,000 per month (and counting).

A few of you have reached out to share your similar experiences, and some of you have let me know you’re starting out and are worried about making the same mistake as Jennie, so I’m going to share with you what that biggest mistake is, so we can all avoid it once and for all.

How To Stay Focused On Your Business During Chaotic Times

I know a lot of us are facing chaotic, uncertain times at the moment so I wanted to share how I have dealt with chaotic times in the past to keep focused on moving the needle forward in my business…

The last few days have been a challenging few. Right now I should’ve been sitting by the pool at my hotel in Austin.

Instead, I am sitting on my sofa at home, cramming in some work before my husband wakes up.

2 days ago, just as I was starting to pack for my month-long trip, someone rang to let me know John, my husband, was in an ambulance on morphine, and on the way to the hospital.

I won’t go into all of the details, but he’s now home – with a broken collarbone – and we’re navigating the next steps of surgery, healing and whether he can look after himself while (if) I’m away.

And you see, this is just the way it is to be an entrepreneur.

How To Sign Client Contracts Electronically (using HelloSign)

Systems and structures can sound so BORING or HARD for new health coaches and they are certainly not the sexy, freedom-based lifestyle ideas that we might have envisioned when starting a business.

But streamlined systems that work are actually really sexy!!

And today, we’re looking at how to set up a system for signing client contracts online.

Once your potential client says ‘YES’ to working with you, streamlined systems are imperative to ensure the sales goes 100% through with professionalism and ease.

How To Book Client Calls With Ease (Using Calendly!)

Hi ladies,

How did you get on with your One Thing last week?

I’ve heard some wonderful breakthrough stories from a couple of you who took action on last week's One Thing and posted your Canva image on Facebook to book Discovery Sessions with potential clients.

If you missed that mini-training, you can access it here >>

So following on with our Action April theme, this week’s One Thing is to set up an online scheduler so that clients interested in those Discovery Sessions can book a time to talk with you with ease.

One thing I have noticed through mentoring 100s of new health coaches is that sadly they can lose a potential client who has shown interest, purely because of the back and forth in setting up a good time that works for both parties to connect.

In this week’s Action April training, I guide you through setting up your online schedule using a free program called Calendly.

Booking Systems For Your Health Coaching Business (+ How You Can Take Client Payments!)

When you’re setting up your successful Health Coaching business, it pays to have a booking system in place that will keep you from playing email tag with clients, or double-booking yourself.

(By the way, it is absolutely FINE to start out with Google Calendar if that’s what feels comfortable for you.

I’d love to share with you a couple of booking systems that might suit you and where you’re at in your business (And at the end of this blog post, I talk about what method I personally use to take client payments).

How To Find A Business Coach (Who‘s Right For You!) - Guest Post by Joanna Mitchell, The Healthy VA

Today’s post is a guest post by Joanna Mitchell, The Healthy VA…

I’ve found being an entrepreneur the biggest personal development journey ever, so having the right support by my side has been essential.

When seeking the right coach for you and your business, I’ve learnt there are seven things to consider...

5 Minutes For YOU (Self-Care For Entrepreneurs)

Many of us have made the exciting transition from an office job to being an entrepreneur.

I often lament on how different my life was working in an office – actual lunch breaks!! I would often take breaks from my desk, paid bills at lunchtime or simply a stroll in the city.

When I decided to pursue my entrepreneurial dreams, at first I had so much time for self-care it was AWESOME. But as my business grew I discovered I struggled to fit time in for myself as the days flew by in a busy blur.

This only increased as my workload increased and my self-care practices during my office days needed to be scheduled in or I risked running out of physical and mental energy.
