    #188 Why Traditional Sales Methods Don't Work For Coaches and What To Do Instead

    #188 Why Traditional Sales Methods Don't Work For Coaches and What To Do Instead

    If you’re a coach then you need to know…Traditional sales isn’t working for coaches. Why? 👇
    It focuses on scripts and techniques like objections and closing lines, without considering inner alignment and energetic connection to people. This can make sales feel transactional instead of transformative. You know the feeling.
    That's why we teach the art of soulful sales inside our programs so you can make sales a seamless extension of your coaching and eliminate the “ick” to enroll clients with EASE.
    The soulful sales approach takes into account inner alignment and energy. Your prospective clients sense your energy, which greatly influences the interaction.
    This is an approach that puts the client first, focuses on connection and service, and is aligned with who you are and what you truly value. How? Listen in to learn!
    TUNE INTO THIS EPISODE FOR:
    👉Our favorite somatic, body-based practices to make sales more authentic and easy
    👉Why traditional sales isn't working for coaches and what to do instead
    👉Our soulful sales mindset reframes to help you feel aligned with sales
    👉How to turn sales into an extension of your coaching so clients can experience big breakthroughs on your calls instead of feeling sold to

    #187 How to Stand Out As a New Coach When The Industry Is Growing Rapidly

    #187 How to Stand Out As a New Coach When The Industry Is Growing Rapidly

    Welcome back to another episode of the Punch Drunk Soul Podcast!
     

    Today we're going to be talking about what YOU can do to differentiate yourself in a crowed coaching marketplace.
     

    Each year, thousands more people enter a new career path as a coach. In fact, the number of coach practitioners worldwide has increased by 54% since 2019.
     

    It’s clear more and more coaches are getting into the industry and the need to differentiate yourself and build credibility so you can stand out is at an all time high.
     

    The market is becoming filled with “general” coaches, and those who focus on a specific niche or unique method are far more likely to succeed.
     

    What we'll be sharing today will help you establish a unique identity and approach to your business to set you apart.
     

    Trust us, a certification or another training isn’t going to cut it, there are thousands of coaches getting certified every month.
     

    Identifying what sets you apart from the coaches with the same niche or certification is going to be KEY to your success (and we'll explain how to do that in this episode!).
     

    There’s no room for “sameness” anymore. So listen in and get ready to take notes!
     

    TUNE INTO THIS EPISODE FOR:
    Discover our top 2 tools that will help you differentiate yourself and stand out as a coach
    The #1 tool to help you build credibility and authority fast even if you don't have a lot of experience or a big audience
    The difference between Internal and External alignment and why you need BOTH to grow your business successfully
    Why being a "general" coach isn't a path to success anymore
