What would the ideal coaching and consulting business be like to you?

Magic wand If you could wave a magic wand and have exactly the type of coaching and consulting business you dream of what would that be like?

What kind of revenues would you generate? What type of clients would you work with? Who would want you to work with them?

What impact would you have on your clients? Would you create products, write books, give live presentations, have higher paying customers, have more leisure time?

Would you wake up excited about going to work? Would you be living in more authenticity both personally and professionally?

Take as much time as you need to get a clear sense of exactly what your life would be like.

Okay, now come back to today. Currently, where is your business? How far is it from your ideal?

Next, ask yourself what stops you from creating what you want. Is it money? Time? Knowledge? Support from your family? Professional collaboration?

Your answers are yet another step to minimizing the gap.

Coaches and consultants… Why Write a Book?

Coaches and consultants are constantly on the lookout on how to build their business. There are numerous ways to do this with one of the best; a book.

That’s right. A book accomplishes many things.

Credibility
With a book you do have instant credibility. Of course, it has to be well written, look good and have substance to the content.

Visibility
There’s a lot you can do to gain visibility for your book. Among the more effective tools would be media releases, announcements in your social networks, postings on your blog, guest blogging and article marketing.

Revenues
Always a nice thing, a book can generate very handsome revenues for a coach and/or consultant. That is, if you know how to market your book. One person who does know is Wendy Stetina, Director of Author Services for Outskirts Publishing.

Why are so many experts using outdated marketing systems?

Visible. Virtually any entrepreneur seeks effective strategies to gain visibility and market reach. The challenge is many of the “tried and true” methods are so overused our messages become diluted and quit working very well.  

 “Not another eBook!” seems to be the battle cry of busy professionals. Not that eBooks can’t still be effective, but why not up the ante? Why not really stand apart from the competition with incredibly high value information that others wouldn’t dream of giving away. Nope, they go right into selling, perplexed that they are not generating the kind of revenues they believe they deserve.

Misguided beliefs
The problem with this thought process is until one is established as someone who creates massive value they will struggle to sell their information.  If you don’t believe it, then why are so many experts unhappy with their level of revenue? And why are so many experts struggling to pay their bills?

Because they have not yet accepted the way they are marketing and selling may not be the best way.

Want to make the process of selling much easier? Yes? Then do this; give before you receive. And give and give and give.

Coaches and consultants… When is it appropriate to go free or fee?

Free Recently there has been a very dynamic conversation on a LinkedIn group I belong to about whether or not a period of free consulting is an effective way to acquire new business.

With over 1,500 comments there are many who believe it's okay to give a period of free consulting to potential clients and many more who are adamant this is not a good idea.

What is FREE consulting?

Before knowing how you would answer this it's necessary to define specifically what free consulting means. Once the definition becomes clear the answer is likely to be very simple.
