Summertime blues
Summer likes to play head games with coaches. A lot of potential clients seem to go MIA, posting pics of their trips to the cottage and the beach, and it's easy to think that everyone is off-the-grid until later in September. It can all get a little frustrating, and...
Call me Dr.No
The longer I've been in the coaching game, I've had to become more comfortable with the word "no". And it seems that the longer I've been in business, the more requests I get for favours (from complete strangers and also from people I've crossed paths with). It'd be...
Running a tight ship
We've run a tight ship in The Coaching Jungle Facebook group since it opened back in 2015 … Whenever a member posted something that broke a group rule, we deleted it ASAP, no questions asked. Our actions might have seemed too tight, but I think it was the right move...
An event to connect you with potential partners!
When I launched The Coaching Jungle VIP a few months ago, I knew I wanted it to be as valuable as possible for those members. So while it has benefits like posting perks on the group wall (to reach almost 26,000 members in the community), I decided to add some...
Some Jungle VIP results!
Since I launched The Coaching Jungle VIP earlier this summer, there have been some interesting results … Some of the VIPs have gotten $5,000 clients, and others even $10,000 ones! I don't want to promise these results ASAP. While I hope the VIPs get them, it's never a...
Summer’s almost over!
While I'm a believer that people do business year round, I know that the summer months can be a little slower. But we're now almost done with summer, the beach days and road trips, and they're ready to get back to business. If you have something that benefits coaches...
Drawing inspiration from The Kingpin
Kingpin (from the old Daredevil series on Netflix) grew up as an overweight, scared boy who was bullied by a father who forced him to stare at a white wall and think about “what kind of man he wants to be”. The boy started to toughen up, and developed a passion for...
Filling your future bank account
Whenever I get a new coaching client, I ask that person how they heard about me. They usually answer with: "I've been following your stuff for awhile". "Awhile" could mean weeks, months, or longer … The actions I took back then led to me getting a client today, even...
Brainstorming about your offer(s)
This week I've been promoting The Coaching Jungle VIP, and if you're considering joining I want to give an additional perk: I'll hop on Zoom and brainstorm with you to go over your offer (or offers), to see what's the best fit and share my experiences. The VIP has...
Club 33
There's a secret place in Disneyland that not a lot of people know about, called Club 33. Near the exit to the Pirates of the Caribbean ride there's an unmarked door with a "33" sign and a buzzer hidden beside it. But it's not enough to just buzz yourself in … You...
