A new VIP client of mine read an article about SEO—search engine optimization—and went down a rabbit hole of stress.

I assured them that we addressed SEO for a coach by doing market research on their chosen target audience and applying smart keywords to everything we wrote for her coaching business.

And, for the business model we created, with high-touch, high-ticket offers, they would not need to dig deeper into SEO. The relief was palpable.

Search traffic is NOT the best way to attract serious coaching clients who will show up, do the work and make real progress.

And, besides that, AI is stealing attention away from original content on searches at an increasing rate.

Let your left brain relax. You don’t have to play in that cold SEO sandbox.

But there are some things you do need to know. Let’s talk about that.

What exactly makes you credible to prospective coaching clients?

You might be surprised.

I used to think certifications and years of experience were the most critical factors.

While those things can impress some, they aren’t even in the top 5 things that inspire a confident ‘YES!’.

Instead, it’s small things, which stacked together over a short time, build a clear picture of:

· Who you are

· What you stand for

· And, whether you are trust worthy

Because your goal isn’t to attract and be hired by just anyone but rather clients that are a good fit for you and your program…

Knowing yourself and having a consistent presence carries the biggest impact.

In this episode of Prosperous Coach Podcast, I share 8 specific, doable things to raise credibility with your audience.

Which of these motivates YOU to makes changes for your credibility?

And, what’s the tipping point that’s inspired your best clients to hire you?

Will MORE training make you successful as a coach?

Additional course work can be stimulating and potentially useful.

It can also be addictive—a form of self sabotage.

There’s even a term for it. Bright shiny object syndrome.

Sometimes it’s an unconscious and conflicting goal to prolong student coach mode.

Coaches in their early years are vulnerable to this. But it’s a costly mindset and habit.

I’ve been there. In my early years I spent So. Much. Money.

Little of it actually made any difference. It was either because…

1. I COULDN’T apply what I learned on my own. It was too soon for me developmentally.

2. Or, I was AFRAID to apply what I learned and take actions. I needed personalized support.

It took a breakthrough to snap out of it and stop wasting time and money.

Are you habitually buying courses that you never apply to your business?

This episode is for you. I’ve taken this cure myself. ; )
