Join us at The Big ICF-GA VIRTUAL Meeting: Gaining Coaching Clients Without Having to Find Them featuring Tolu Akande, PCC
Event Description:
For many coaches, coaching is purpose and passion work. Business development usually is not. Networking, business plans, pitching, selling, and social media can be very challenging. It can be a real struggle for many coaches, particularly BIPOC coaches to develop a sustainable client portfolio.
With the growth of the coaching industry now valued at $2.8B (2019, ICF Study), there is money to be made for coaches. The question arises, “Is there a way to coach and do what I love without always having to be great at business development?”
The answer is “yes.” This workshop will share best practices for developing a healthy clientele by cultivating multiple streams of clients. Participants will learn how to leverage coaching communities, coaching vendors, and coaching peers to keep “the main thing” the main thing: coaching people.
Continuing Coach Education Units (CCEU): 1.5 TBD
