You’ll learn what you need to do to get on the fast-track to dependable, consistent revenue, and real results for you and your business coaching clients.
This is the second in a series of posts from our great friend and guest poster, social media expert Drew Edwards. Today, Drew will walk us through the process of setting up a LinkedIn profile that will get you business coaching leads and clients!
In my last guest blog post I promised to show you how to set up a business coaching LinkedIn profile that will work as a true marketing tool, rather than a networking tool.
So I’ve created a short video that will walk you through the process of creating a strong, compelling LinkedIn profile that highlights your expertise as a business coach, demonstrates the benefits prospective clients can expect from working with you, and encourages new leads to get in touch.
If you’re looking to become a business coach, then you’ve probably explored several of the business coaching opportunities on the market. Chances are good that you’ve discovered this simple fact: most of the systems in the business coaching industry have limited support.
But with The Coaches’ Coach, you have a proven, comprehensive system that helps you become a business coach. It will take you all the way from generating your first business coaching leads to nurturing long-term relationships with high-paying business coaching clients.
The level of support and the detail of information is simply unmatched in the business coaching training marketplace.
But don’t just take my word for it — watch the video below and see for yourself!
For more information on how you can grow a six-figure business coaching practice, read Eric Dombach’s FREE ebook, Secrets of a Business Coaching Rock Star. You can download it HERE at no cost and no obligation. It explains EXACTLY how Eric went from $0-$1 Million as a business coach in just four short years…and how you can transform your practice, too.
We are focused on capitalising on the market for business coaching in both the East Midlands and South Yorkshire areas of England. We’ve been working with Eric Dombach on a weekly basis for 14 months now and during this time we have seen vast improvements in our business. I used to be a chartered accountant and used to bring home about £3k a month and thought I was the bees knees – but working for others and always being concerned with being retrenched or whatever, not being in control of my own destiny.
When I started working with The Coaches’ Coach, I was making about 3k a month as a coach (after about 3 years of being in the industry). I now have a business that I am growing. I am in control of my own destiny. I am the boss. I make a massive difference in my clients lives – which is a big thing for me.
Since we started working with Eric Dombach, our pipeline of leads has grown from average 8 to average 41 leads per month and our turnover has grown from £4,000 to more than £18,000 per month, a 450% increase! Eric has helped us attract new clients and clarify our coaching packages and programmes. One of the most vital changes has also been our approach to the phone. Eric’s help has been invaluable in getting us motivated, shifting us from hating the phone to now loving it. We have 2 telemarketers generating leads for us and our marketing machine is producing quite nicely.
Eric Dombach is honestly one of the best business coaches on this planet. When he was with a franchise many years ago, he was recognized by them as their best business coach in the world as well as the best coach in North America for quite a few years running. He knows what he is doing! He has helped us attract new clients and clarify our coaching packages and programmes. One of the most vital changes has also been our approach to the phone.

Is it worth having a Coaches’ Coach? Last month I personally banked £21,000. I am going on 2 holidays before mid-January (South Africa and Grand Canaries), my wife doesn’t work anymore (and she was the other chartered accountant in the equation before, so we had a relatively good life to start with) and has decided to be a full-time mom – which she is loving (the freedom and choice bit). I am currently growing my business which means I am taking on other coaches and teaching them the ropes (which means they make really good money very quickly) – and ultimately will be the way that I set myself free from having to work too.
Is it worth it? Well… let me think about that one…In 24 months of working with Eric Dombach my life has changed completely!
In Part 1 of this series, I shared with you why any business coach growing a practice should consider building their team with freelancers. I provided the precise ad I used to recruit my long-term copywriter from Elance (now Upwork) and the response she sent that made me hire her.
In Part 2 today, I’m turning it over to my copywriter Katie Langston to share what has made the relationship successful on her end, twelve years in! Take it away, Katie! 🙂
Thanks, Eric!
Eric was one of my very first freelance copywriting clients back in 2009. I had worked for a few years as an account manager and copywriter for a small chiropractic marketing firm, before deciding to attempt to make my way as a freelance writer. I had probably been on Upwork for a couple of months when I came across Eric’s posting. It was, and remains, a huge blessing that we found one another!
Great Ad Listing
The first thing that stood out to me about it was that this was a person who knew what quality copy was, and would appreciate the craft. That might sound like a small thing, but I’d learned from frustrating experience that far too often, clients don’t know what goes into good copy, and they requested revisions that made it significantly less effective—and then blamed me for it! I could tell that this was a person who knew what he wanted, and that it was directly in line with my approach to marketing and sales copywriting. This made him an ideal client from my perspective.
Relationship-Oriented
The second thing that stood out to me was that Eric wasn’t just looking for a one-and-done project, but that he was looking for a longtime partner. I also wanted to find long-term clients I could build a relationship with, and grow in our work together. I preferred to build a smaller portfolio of top-drawer clients than to be constantly bouncing from project to project at high volumes. I think most quality contractors are looking for something like this.
Revenue Sharing
As a direct response copywriter, I believed in my work and knew it would be effective, so I was looking, eventually, to move from a fee-for-service model to a revenue-for-results model. Eric was looking for the same thing. So, in time, we shifted the compensation package. This meant that we grew together and both were invested in the success of our campaigns, which was a huge benefit for both of us!
Amazing Feedback
Eric has a gift for providing helpful, constructive feedback. Whenever you’re working with contractors, there will be times you’ll need to help them catch your vision. Eric does a great job of being positive and clear when we’re working through the revision process.
Collegiality
Some clients treat contractors as easily-expendable commodities. Eric, on the other hand, always knew there was a person on the other side of the relationship, and invested in my growth as a person as well as a business resource. This has meant, that as my career has expanded, I am now in a position where I often have to say no to many potential clients—but I always keep some time on my calendar for Eric!
In addition, as an entrepreneur myself, I recruit and hire contractors regularly. I always try to keep Eric’s example in the forefront of my mind. You’d be surprised at the kind of outstanding service you can receive and long-term partnerships you can create if you treat your freelance contractors well!
