Coaching as a Side-Hustle 

Better face the facts. It’s highly unlikely you’re going to retire at your current place of employment. This means your current day job is temporary. Some employees hear this and “go ostrich.” Fearfully, they stick their heads in the ground and ignore this truth. Other employees wake up to the fact it’s their responsibility to create a side hustle now, before their jobs are eliminated or outsourced. Coaching is one the fastest growing professions. It’s a multi-billion dollar industry producing incredible benefits for the coach and client.

Benefits of BEING a Coach

• You can work whenever from wherever, with just a laptop or phone.
• Convert your knowledge and experience into true value for others.
• Co-create visible results in the lives of others.
• Get paid to do what you love while invest in clients from around the world.

Benefits of GETTING Coached

• A Truth Teller pushing you to dream bigger and dig deeper.
• Regular accountability for personal and professional goal achievement.
• Wisdom and insight from someone not directly tied to the outcome.
• A confidential relationship that leads to more clarity and confidence.

Why you Need to Level Up

Do you have a side-hustle, a means of income other than your day job? If so, you’re not alone.

• In 2013: 6.8 million Americans had a side-hustle. This represents 5% of the population.
• In 2017: 44 millions have a side-hustle. This represents 18% of the population.

Why the increase? For starters, the new Digital Age allows this. We have more opportunities than ever before. But we also have more reasons why we need a side hustle too. People realize their employers aren’t going to take care of them forever. They also know it’s highly unlikely they’ll retire in their current day job. This means their day jobs are temporary. It also means they need a plan.

What you Need to Level Up

According to Harvard Business Review, you only need one thing to catapult your current or future coaching business to the next level. The Harvard Study revealed the top reasons why companies hire coaches:

• Reason #1 = Experience (65%): This answer was predicable. Companies look for coaches with experience.
• Reason #2 = Clear Methodology (61%): This answer was unpredictable. It’s nearly twice as important than the ability to measure a Return On Investment (ROI).

How you Can Level Up

One major way you can Level Up your current or future coaching business is by having a clear methodology. I call this a coaching framework. The best coaches employ a framework that leads their clients to a solution.

• Framework: A solution broken down into simple steps.

Some coaches only rely on asking curious questions. Of course asking questions are an important part of the coaching process, but it doesn’t stop there. Questions help clients become aware of the problem, but not the solution.

In today’s podcast I share why a coaching framework is one of the most important components in your coaching business. (Listen to this episode via itunes, audioboom, or stitcher)

Just Some of our Team Benefits:

One of our listeners wrote in this week with a desperate request:

The above excerpt is mild. But as I dove deeper into his story my heart broke. He has a wife and kids and he’s burning through cash…fast.

He needs to stop the bleeding…fast.

I wanted to help. And after a few days, I thought of a way. He gave me permission to share his story…without using his real name. And so I dedicated an episode for him…and others like him.

Although I’d never recommend launching a coaching business when you’re up against the ropes, without a backup plan, sometimes you don’t have a choice. Whether or not your back is against the wall, if you need strategies to kickstart your business, then tune in. I share the tactics I used to launch my own coaching business.

These principles can be integrated into many different industries. Don’t give in to your fears. There is hope.

Kick your business into high gear overnight.
