The Business of Executive Coaching

Why is it so hard? How to reduce the emotional toll of marketing your business.

The Business of Executive Coaching

Show Notes

Marketing your coaching business shouldn't feel heavy. But for most of us, it does. For most of us there are a series of decisions, doubts and fears that attach a whole heap of emotional labour to the marketing and business development that we do.

In this episode I look into why you might be experiencing that (you aren’t alone!) and I share practical shifts to help lighten the load.

If you'd like support to build and implement a marketing system that takes the emotional labour out of growing your coaching business with more corporate clients, you can learn more about the Corporate to Coach Accelerator here and please book a call with me to discuss whether it makes sense for your business. And don't forget to connect with me on LinkedIn and let me know what your experience with marketing is!
