S 396: How a Diluted Coaching Message = Diluted Results and Fighting Obscurity as a Health and Fitness Coach

Building a coaching business that has lasting success and traction is dependent on the coaching brand's message and relevancy to their specific audience. As a coach or "influencer" grows, their topics of conversation grow along with them. Many coaches I see in the same do their messaging and branding backwards, talking about everything initially and not establishing that authority within your niche first. Today's episode is all about how to build a trustworthy brand and why solving problems on specific topics first is key. Topics include:   - Battling Obscurity and Branding - Cultivating Skillsets and Providing Value - My Initial Path - Importance of Clarity and Trustworthiness - Solving Problems on Specific Topics - Showing Up for Free Initially and Continuous - Defining Personal Branding - Metabolism School and FNMS ---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101 ---------- Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple ---------- Stay Connected Instagram: @sammillerscience Youtube: SamMillerScience Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community  TikTok: @sammillerscience  ---------- “This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.
