I’ve just got certified as a coach.

“𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡”.

“𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬”.

“I want to feel solid as a coach and be more confident in my coaching. Have a coaching business that works with a busy schedule packed with appointments from potential clients”.

Well first of all congrats on your certification, you made an excellent choice in pursuing coaching. It is a very rewarding and fulfilling career.

Now that you’re certified, great! That means you’ve acquired knowledge, tools, and skills to help others as a coach. So you have equipped yourself to be able to help others, change their lives, and make an impact. And that’s the first part done, getting yourself equipped to be able to help others through coaching.

The second part is, obviously you’ll be doing coaching helping others operating as a business as it would be a coaching business. So this second part is to seek correct guidance on how to start or build a viable coaching business. A roadmap that guides you on starting and building a successful coaching business.

Notice I use the word correct guidance. I use this word because there is so much information out there. Because of that, it has to be the correct one, I can’t stress that enough. What do I mean by correct guidance? I mean guidance that provides you with everything you need to start or build a viable coaching business that works, basically an end-to-end solution. Not guidance that gives one piece but missing other pieces. For example, guidance that gives you some marketing strategy to show you how to do marketing. That’s not full guidance because marketing is just one piece other pieces are missing.

The correct guidance does not miss any pieces. Any guidance that misses certain pieces causes you to have gaps those gaps would cause you to struggle later on. The guidance must be correct and have all the pieces. The pieces must also be aligned with the stage that you are in as a beginner coach, not advanced complex pieces that you are not ready for or don’t need.

So the conclusion is if you’ve just got certified as a coach not sure where and how to get started with your coaching business. Seek correct guidance on how to start or build a viable coaching business. Be sure it’s the correct one though because if it’s not, it may take you longer to reach success with your coaching business and you may get frustrated because you not getting any success which may cause you to be negative, sceptical which may lead you to give up on your dream of being a coach with a successful coaching business.
