Are you certain that you love to coach? Are you still a bit unsure of how to turn that into a business? And… are you overwhelmed by everything you now must do to be successful at creating a thriving business?

On today's call, we spoke with Melinda Cohan, President *& Co-Founder, of The Coaches Console and "Expert in the Business of Coaching." We discussed the secrets that top coaches and business owners use to attract top-quality clients. Melinda walks you through the secrets that top coaches and business owners use to attract top-quality clients . 

You will walk away with very specific and tangible things you can integrate into your business immediately. Coaching is a calling, a gift a purpose.  The Business of Coaching is the vehicle in which we get to coach our clients and help more people.

The Secret will empower you to unleash your purpose in your business so you can boldly, passionately and with a lot of success do more of what you love!

Here is what a new coach had to say about setting up the Key systems as she started her coaching practice:

“As a newbie coach and entrepreneur in 2005, I had a lot of internal gremlins around 'looking professional' and asking for money.  But because I had a structure in place that supported good business practices, I was able to bypass these worries and limiting beliefs.  Plus, it was easy and sort of fun!” E.C.

During her successful career in interior design, Melinda witnessed how bringing subtle amounts of organization to an environment could positively impact the people inhabiting the space. “When your work environment is disorganized”, reflects Melinda, “it’s a tremendous drain of mental energy. There’s something about having clarity and control over all the loose ends that makes a person feel confident to handle situations.”

After she experienced success in her own coaching practice, it wasn't long before her desire to organize systems and methods led her to the partnership that would result in The Coaches Console.

“I spent time exploring the best methods to accomplish all the various aspects of running a successful coaching practice, and it really got easier once all of that effort started to pay off. It helped me create 18 full paying clients in only six months. I knew that if I had to perform certain administrative tasks as a coach, that other coaches were doing similar activities. I also know not everybody has those organizational skills – or enjoys using them to the same extent. I had already done much of the work, so it made sense to find a way to share it with others.”

Soon the team began exploring technology that would allow other coaches to utilize the methods they had developed, and The Coaches Console quickly moved beyond the drawing board and became reality.

“I love the fact that The Coaches Console lets coaches enjoy their profession more fully,” Melinda says with a satisfied smile. “It helps them focus on clients, not paperwork.
