Free Webinar on Building Your Practice Through Blogging

Hello Fellow Coaches,

At Free Coaching Resources, we are committed to bringing you the latest and best coaching tools and resources that are free. A brand new year has started. You can make this, 2014, your break out year.

One of the things my clients ask me is, "How do I get new prospects when there thousands of coaches already out there?" Or, "What can I do to stand out?" And, "Should I have a blog?"

This is almost always followed up with, "Well, I tried blogging once , and it didn't work." Can you see the problem with that last statement?

As with anything you do in business, and I said business, because your coaching practice is your business, you must have a plan, or a system. And, just like any plan or system, you have trial and error along the way. You have to see what works, and stick with what works. It's not a set it and forget it, but it is a set it and adjust it as needed.

Despite all of the hoopla about blogging, it is the best way to get the low hanging fruit. It is a way to get prospects organically (meaning you are not paying for the traffic.) If you are just starting out, or maybe in a cash slump and need a jump start, blogging may be the one thing that gets you back on track.

Once you are established, it is one of the best ways to keep your presence out there. Whether you are blogging once a week, daily, or anywhere in between, blogging is one tool that you want in your client prospecting toolbox.

But, you may ask, "Why didn't blogging work for me?" There are several reasons for this, but the most common reason I find is this:

The #1 reason people start a blog is that some "expert" said they needed one. 
So they...
1. Pick a topic 
2. Start a blog
3. Expect traffic to show up

When this doesn't work, coaches quit blogging in frustration. They either go on to the next "silver bullet" or "bright shiny object" to try to generate cash to justify their existence as a coach.

Let me stop for just a minute here, and say: blogging is not the only thing you will need to create and maintain a successful coaching practice.  But, it is one of the things you will have to have in your tool box.

If you have a blog, it will be the one thing people will probably look at before making a decision about going any further in investigating whether or not they want to hire you for coaching. And, remember, they are not hiring a coach, they are buying a solution to their problems.

There is a company out there that specializes in teaching business owners ( remember what I said above coaches) about blogging. Learn to Blog breaks the steps down in bite sized pieces so you are not overwhelmed with insignificant details.




Better yet, they are offering a free webinar on "6 Figure Blog Secrets"  It is tomorrow, and that's short notice, but this is definitely worth your time to attend.

2 Free Kindle books that are great for new coaches


Today's free coaching resource is a 2 for 1 special. These are free Kindle ebooks that can help you build your coaching practice. They cover two very important topics to building a coaching practice: blogging and writing Kindle ebooks.

Both of these books are quick reads. They get right to the point and skip the unnecessary fluff. Whether you are new to this, or you've been around for a while, there is plenty of good information in both of these books that can put you ahead of the competition.

The first is a book on blogging by Steve Scott. "How to Start a Successful Blog in One Hour" is a roadmap to getting your blog out there and getting traffic. The author explains where to start and how to set up a blog that gets noticed by the search engines, and gets you readers and subscribers.





















 





 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I like how the author gets right to the point, and covers all of the valuable tips that separate successful blogs from everyone else's. This is some of the same information that I find myself having to cover with new coaching clients that do not have a blog yet. I will definitely be recommending this ebook to all of my clients and prospective clients.
 
 
The next free coaching resource of the day is a Kindle ebook by Anbu Rayappan. His book "Non-Fiction Writing Machine: How to Write a Book in 5 1/2 Days in 3 Simple Steps" is an excellent foundation to use when writing your first book.  If you have never tried writing a book, this can be a blueprint to build an empire of your life's work in a digital book form. When writing Kindle ebooks, you do not have to get publisher approval, worry about creative control, fret over deadlines, and the multitude of problems that occur when using a publishing service. With the Kindle platform, you write the material, upload it to Kindle, and it is listed and live for your prospects. Just like that, no middle men, no unnecessary fees, and best of all, you keep entire control of your body of work.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The author provides his information in a simple "paint by the numbers" if you will. Steps like choosing the right topic, how to structure a non-fiction book, the writing process, and a helpful checklist to make sure you don't leave anything out. The author shows a realistic plan to write your book of 10,000 words (only 40 pages) in 5 days, but only 2 hours a day of writing.
 
How many books could you write in a month, if you went by this plan? Don't have any published works yet? This can be a game changer for you and your coaching practice.
 
Also, remember that the Kindle reader is free for any electronic device. Simply go to www.kindle.amazon.com and set up a free Kindle account and you can start downloading Kindle ebooks, even if you do not own an actual Kindle device.
 
I hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Sign up in the sign up box and you will be taken to the download page where you can start immediately downloading this valuable coaching tools and resources.

Wishing you More Clients, More Money, and More Life!
 
Respectfully yours,

Red Hot Internet Publicity

Today's free coaching resource comes to us by way of Amazon Kindle. Red Hot Internet Publicity is an information packed book that teaches new coaches and experienced pros, the ins and outs of getting more website traffic.



Perusing through this book, I must say it is very comprehensive in its scope. Starting out with SEO and your website, and then social media, blogging, and driving traffic, it delivers ideas on how to make your web presence "red hot."

There are the basics as well as advanced tips for everyone to have a website that gets more traffic, more prospects, and converts more sales.

Click here to get this free Kindle ebook

If your website needs a makeover, or it is not making you money, this is a book you need. In coaching, the purpose of your website is to make you money. Your coaching website should not be a hobby, but a cash machine. It should be built to accomplish this. Before you start building your site, you should keep this in mind.

I know some of you may be saying, "This is not what I signed up for when I decided to become a life coach." But, sales and marketing is the life blood of any business. Your coaching practice is your business, and it should reflect it, as well.

If you are doing this solo, without a web designer, I suggest taking it a little at a time. Don't try to accomplish it all at once. You will be overwhelmed. If you do have a web designer, this will give you something to point out the direction you want your site to go. Remember, your site does not have to be the best on the web, but it must be better than your competitor's.

I especially like how the author broke down each facet of social media. Again, from my own experience, and my client's experience, start with one social media network. And, as you gain experience and proficiency, you can add another. The main purpose of your social media presence is to drive traffic to your site.

There is so much more to this book, as well. How to do effective blogging. Using video to drive more traffic to your site. And, some very good information on building mobile friendly websites.

There are added resources at the end of this book that can help you find the right web hosting company and design a vibrant, thriving website that builds your coaching practice to the level you desire.

Please get this free coaching resource, and let me know what you think. Email me at info@100coachingtips.com

And for my new readers, you can get over $1700 in free coaching resources to download at www.100coachingtips.com . Simply sign in, and download these tools from some of the best coaches in the business. These resources are yours to keep.

The weekend is fast upon us. Let's enjoy, recharge, and plan for an exciting week.

We at 100 Coaching Tips wish all of you: More Clients, More Money, and More Life!

Respectfully yours,

Steve Davis

7 Days to a Successful Blog

Whether we like it or not, blogging is a must if you are going to build a community of prospects for your coaching practice. Maybe you are just starting out. Maybe you are a seasoned veteran. But, whatever you would categorize yourself as, blogging is as much of a successful web presence as your website. Maybe even more, depending on who you ask.

Maybe you didn't realize the importance of blogging when you decided to become a life coach. Maybe, when getting your training and becoming a life coach, blogging was never mentioned or taught to you. But, whatever reason, there is no excuse for not blogging. I'm not speaking of the blogging so many do, that talks about what they had for breakfast, or who broke up with whom. I'm talking about delivering high quality content to your tribe or community through your blog.

There are so many ways to start blogging. And, there are many more people out there who want to tell you how to blog. The possibilities are practically endless. But, we all must start somewhere. So where do you start?

For today's free coaching resource, I have found a free 7 day video bootcamp that will show you how to be a successful blogger. This free video series will show you what options there are, and how to get started.



I have viewed the videos and they are full of useful information to help you get a step ahead of the competition. Click here to sign up for the free 7 day video bootcamp. Doon't let the word bootcamp scare you off. These videos are concise and to the point. They show you what you need to know without the senseless drivel or self aggrandizement that is common today.

Please take some time to check this out. I think everyone can learn something from these videos.

Also, the weekend is almost over. Where does the time go? Take some time to enjoy life, whether spending it with friends and family, or resting and recharging for the upcoming week.

If you would like to contact me: info@100coachingtips.com

And to our new readers, which we get quite a few each day, please go to www.100coachingtips.com and sign up, and you can download $1700 worth of free coaching tools.

We here at 100 Coaching Tips wish all of you: More Clients, More Money, and More Life!

Respectfully yours,

Steve Davis
