The Thriving Coaches Podcast

I'm Jamie Smart - welcome to the podcast. And in this episode, you're going to hear from executive coach Tony Piper. Tony is a graduate of our Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme. And one of the interesting things about Tony is that he's seen a big increase in his impact as a coach as he's started integrating the principles in his work. By the way, the doors are now open for the full Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme, our 12-week journey for coaches, therapists and other heart-centred professionals who want to grow a successful business by making a massive difference. You can find out all about it at www.JamieSmart.com/thriving When you get to the page, you'll find a concise video walking you through why TCB is so powerful, how the programme can get you the kinds of results you want and exactly what's included. Plus there's a bonus package worth over £6,000, and the doors are open until this friday at midnight, so go to www.JamieSmart.com/thriving to learn more and register now. So here's the episode!

Hi, I'm Jamie Smart. Welcome to the podcast. In this session, we're going to do something a little bit different. Earlier in the week, I put up a post on my Thriving Coaches community asking for questions in preparation for a Q&A Session. The question I asked was: "Coaches, what are the questions you'd love to ask about how to build thriving and successful coaching business?" So we've got fantastic answers. We've got: - How do you actually create a coaching package? - How do you find coaching clients if you live somewhere, where coaching isn't a part of the culture? - What are the doubts that stop people from signing up with a coach? - How to choose a price for my coaching package? I don't know what to charge? - How do you find coaching clients when you live somewhere where there aren't many people? - What if I'm uncomfortable with, or afraid of being visible? - What if I have doubts about my abilities to make real difference to people? We get a session on a Facebook group and I answered as many of those questions I could get through. And that's what you're going to be hearing in this podcast episode. Now before we go into that, I just opened the doors on my Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme. The full programme is starting literally this weekend. The Doors are open, you can find out all about it at jamiesmart.com/thriving. There's a £6000 bonus package when you sign up. The doors close at friday at midnight. Head over to jamiesmart.com/thriving, you can find out all about it. See if it's a good fit for you, and there are also case studies there with graduates of the programme. If that's something that's interesting to you, go to jamiesmart.com/thriving, and there's also a video where I explain it to you. Without further ado, here's the Q&A Session...

Welcome to the podcast. In this session, we're doing a kind of warmup for the free live training I'm kicking off on Friday 29th October, called the Thriving Coaches Business Masterclass series. And this time, we're doing something new: We've got a theme for the Masterclass series, "Decoding the Principles Behind Transformation". In the course of helping you grow a thriving coaching business, I want to make the principles I'm so passionate about practical and highly relevant to you. Why? Because these principles are the most practical thing I know for helping you get clients and make a big difference in a way that fits with who you really are. So every day for 10 days I'm reading you a chapter from my book for coaches, therapists and consultants. It's called The Thriving Coaches Scorecard, the 10 multipliers that are either growing or slowing your professional practice. The focus of the book, and the masterclass series is on getting clients, growing your business and having an impact in your clients' lives, and we're going to be covering the stuff that's most crucial for coaches to learn (especially in these times of uncertainty and volatility) including… Demystifying the whole domain of 'niching' Setting your price Engagement and growing your audience The whole 'visibility' thing Getting clients and making a difference to them The question of 'coaching packages' vs 'hourly' vs 'retainer' The best so-called 'business model' for coaches How to talk about what you do And all the way through, I'm going to be decoding the principles behind transformation and making them practical. So to register for this free masterclass series, go to https://www.jamiesmart.com/business-masterclass. It's totally free, and my aim is to give you more value in this free course than most people give in their paid-for courses. By the way, you can join me in my free secret coaching business channel. I'm doing a new experiment where I'm sharing bite-sized client-creation tips & exclusive free extras for helping you grow your coaching practice. So if that appeals, you can join me there free at www.JamieSmart.com/secret. Now here's the episode…
