Hey fellow coaches - I'm posting this to check the viability of an idea I have. Ed is so great at teaching how to be a great coach and how to use a simple pdf with ads to bring in leads however, I've talked to a lot of new coaches that feel overwhelmed with many of the functions related to establishing themselves online. Having been a coach for 24 years, I can tell you that it IS daunting trying to figure everything out and that's why I'm checking to see if there would be value in providing entry-level or foundations type training to new or desiring coaches. This is ONE skill set of mine - breaking things down into clear and simplified steps. Just wondering if there would be an audience for an 8 or 10-week program where I step a newbie through ALL the pieces, what they are, how they fit together and the basic requirements you really need without having to go out and building a rocket when a simple bicycle will do. would love your thoughts on this.

Many have contacted me asking how to complete this process, so I thought I would lay it out here, step-by-step, in hopes it might help everyone. Ed has created a video outlining the steps, which I will summarize below https://www.skool.com/lifecoachcertificationfree/classroom/8ba4b069?md=023fc73b2bb14a25ba0bb47e14264f32. Here are THE STEPS: Send an email to 'Ed@championacademy.co.uk" containing the following: (since it is highly unlikely that you will be able to send your video via email due to size restrictions, I suggest creating a Google folder, adding these items there, and then sending the link to that folder). 1. A recording of ONE of your coaching sessions: (NOTE: This can be a video or audio - they are evaluating your coaching skills, which come through your language. There is no requirement on length - whether it's 30 minutes or 90 minutes does not matter). UPDATE: If your primary language is something OTHER than English, contact Ed's team at the email above to inquire if you can submit your coaching session in your native language. 2. A completed copy of the Coaching Assessment document (See attached) of your assessment of that coaching session. (NOTE: This is a SELF-ASSESSMENT where you assess the coaching session you are submitting. This requires NO ONE other than yourself. You submit this form, COMPLETED, with your coaching call.) 3. A completed Coaching Academy feedback form (See attached). 4. An acknowledgment that you have completed all the modules (They can check this behind the scenes so they already know if you did or did not complete them) 5. NOTHING ELSE NEEDS TO BE SUBMITTED. Your completion of your "tasking" is accepted on an honor system - they trust you are doing it, and you do not need to submit it. - NOTE: Most videos are too long to send via email - for that reason, I created a Google folder containing all the above and sent them the link to that folder (with access rights) in the email. - The coaching Assessment document is an Excel spreadsheet where you rate how well YOU covered each of the steps outlined in the spreadsheet. This is your best guess at how well you did and what you can improve upon. I don't believe they are looking for perfection, as we are always improving our skills. - UPDATE: many have asked if you need to demonstrate ALL the distinctions covered in the Expert Coach training. I think that would be a challenge to do - based on the self-assessment form, these are the skills you DO need to be able to demonstrate: 1)Creates introduction that is focused and engages the client. 2) Poise and confidence. 3) Pacing of speech. 4) Conveys ideas with originality and clarity 5) Addresses short-term goals 6) Addresses long-term goals 7) Responds to questions

WELCOME TO THE EXPERT COACH COMMUNITY My name is Ed and I hope this is going to transform your life like nothing else you have experienced before. . . The Expert Coach Certification is sold for £5,000. This is not some fake marketing technique to get you to trust me. The truth is the online space today is not that empowering. There are few communities available for coaches and consultants That provides real value and most are just spam communities. . . Day in and day out my ads get bombarded with negative comments about coaching I get tired of people commenting negative things. how all coaches just want to make money etc Coaching is a scam etc Making money is not why I decided to become a coach. There is nothing wrong with making money from coaching However, if it is the most important factor to you as a coach You are most likely going to fail. . . Money is a by-product of being an amazing coach. Money is a by-product of being able to create amazing transformations with clients The truth is most coaches/consultants are just not that good at the skill of coaching

Hey y'all! Wanted you all to know that the email company ZeroBounce identified the most "dangerous" words based on how frequently they appear in emails. This is "dangerous" to us because part of what you are (or will be) doing as a coach is email marketing. If you are using these words in email, your potential client's email service provider might throw them into the Spam folder, and in some cases even block them. Also, the company also looked at click-through rate (CTR) and the infection/damage rate. 1️⃣ Topping the list is the word "money," with an 83.56% infection/damage rate. Dang, that’s high. It also had the second-highest CTR and appearance rate. (Unless you are in the finance niche, this one you probably won't 2️⃣ Coming in at No. 2 is "income." It has the highest CTR because we all want more income, right?
