So let me ask you, are you posting content and showing up on social media and
Speaker:emailing your list and you're still not getting clients?
Speaker:You're not alone.
Speaker:We all experience this, especially in the beginning.
Speaker:And many coaches are doing all the right things, but they're still not
Speaker:getting any steady flow of clients.
Speaker:And you know, when they make an offer, let's say for an example, email, like when
Speaker:they're emailing their list and they make an offer to their list, it's
Speaker:really frustrating and discouraging and downright confusing when you're never
Speaker:getting any buyers and you think then you have to scrap the whole thing, right?
Speaker:This offer that you've created, that nobody wants it.
Speaker:And that's just not.
Speaker:That's rarely the case. Rarely.
Speaker:So here's what I know.
Speaker:As a coaching business growth specialist, I've been behind the scenes and helped to
Speaker:build multiple seven figure coaching brands, companies.
Speaker:And it's probably not your offer.
Speaker:I can tell you that from experience.
Speaker:It rarely is the offer itself.
Speaker:It's not your content and it's definitely not you.
Speaker:The real issue though is that most coaches are speaking to the wrong
Speaker:group of people all the time.
Speaker:This is what most coaches don't know about buyer readiness.
Speaker:And, you know, it takes a while.
Speaker:Like once you know this, what I'm going to share with you today, it takes a
Speaker:little while to get it all in place.
Speaker:Like, I still don't have each of these areas dialed in completely,
Speaker:although I am working on it.
Speaker:And I have seen a difference for sure.
Speaker:You know, as I have been putting these in place, the thing about your audience, it's
Speaker:this, you know, we talk about like niche and we talk about ideal
Speaker:client Persona and audience.
Speaker:And yes, this is a general group of people that, you know, fall into a specific
Speaker:category, at least to some degree.
Speaker:But even within that, that group of people are broken up between three more groups.
Speaker:And let me explain, only about 1 to 3% of your audience
Speaker:is actually ready to buy right now.
Speaker:So that means that 97% of your people, your audience, they aren't ready yet.
Speaker:Doesn't mean that they're not going to ever be ready.
Speaker:It's just that they're not ready yet.
Speaker:And here's how this breaks down.
Speaker:So you have 85% roughly, right, that are window shoppers.
Speaker:These are people that are browsing.
Speaker:They may not even know that they have a problem yet.
Speaker:They're quietly observing and they're not engaging.
Speaker:They're just looking, right.
Speaker:12% roughly are option weighers.
Speaker:These are the folks that know that they have a problem and they are
Speaker:looking for a possible solution.
Speaker:They're not sure yet, though.
Speaker:They're kind of on the fence.
Speaker:They're uncertain, they're deciding and they're looking for who to trust and who
Speaker:they believe, keyword believe will be the right person to help them.
Speaker:Then you have that top 1 to 3%.
Speaker:That's the action takers.
Speaker:These are the people who already, yes, they know they have a problem, they are
Speaker:ready for a solution, they want to fix it now, they want to invest the money.
Speaker:Just show them where to click the button and go buy.
Speaker:Okay, they're ready.
Speaker:They just need a clear offer and an easy way to say yes.
Speaker:And most coaches are speaking to this group of people all the time.
Speaker:But here's the thing.
Speaker:If you are just starting out or maybe you've been at it a little while,
Speaker:but you have a very small community.
Speaker:One percent of that is very small.
Speaker:And that's not enough to sustain you. Right.
Speaker:It's not enough to have that steady client flow month after month.
Speaker:So you're going to have to begin to move people from that 85% group from the window
Speaker:shoppers into the option weighers and then moving the option weighers
Speaker:into the action takers.
Speaker:If you're only creating content that speaks to the top 1 to 3%, then you're
Speaker:leaving a massive opportunity on the table.
Speaker:To grow your coaching business consistently, you must intentionally move
Speaker:people through the buyer readiness stages.
Speaker:So what do you need like, or why do you need to move people between the stages?
Speaker:And, and what does that look like?
Speaker:Like, how do we do that?
Speaker:I'm going to talk about that in just a minute here.
Speaker:So when you're moving people from window shoppers to option weighers, so 85% to the
Speaker:roughly 12%, your goal here is awareness and relevance.
Speaker:So what you're talking about must be relevant to these people
Speaker:and it must bring awareness, bring them to an awareness level or bring awareness to
Speaker:them of the problem that they need to solve.
Speaker:So they need to see themselves in your content, right?
Speaker:That's that relevance.
Speaker:They need to be able to identify with it.
Speaker:They need to recognize their own struggle and they need to understand
Speaker:that you can help them.
Speaker:So the kind of content to use here is blog posts, relatable storytelling, free
Speaker:guides, value driven videos, an example.
Speaker:Lisa doesn't realize she's burned out until she reads your blog post about
Speaker:hidden signs of burnout in solo coaches.
Speaker:She sees herself and now she's paying attention.
Speaker:Does that make sense?
Speaker:I hope so from option weighers to action takers.
Speaker:So how do we move this 12% into the top 1 to 3%.
Speaker:So these people, these folks already know they have a problem, right?
Speaker:They know, they feel the pain of it.
Speaker:It's there, it's pretty solid.
Speaker:But they're not really sure what to do yet.
Speaker:Like, they see some possible solutions, they're weighing their options, right?
Speaker:Or when I say solutions, they see some possible coaches that could help them,
Speaker:but they're not sure which is the right one, or they're not sure what they're
Speaker:ready to spend or they're not sure if it's going to work for, for them, Right?
Speaker:So your job here is to build belief and trust.
Speaker:So in the first group, the really big group, we're bringing
Speaker:awareness and relevance.
Speaker:We're helping them to see the problem and identify with what you're talking about.
Speaker:Now, we want to bring belief.
Speaker:We want to help them to believe in the solution or you as the possible solution.
Speaker:We want to help to build trust so that they feel comfortable working with us.
Speaker:And in this case, they need to see proof that your process works.
Speaker:They need to feel understood and supported and believe that your
Speaker:offer is a right fit.
Speaker:The kind of content that you use here is case studies, testimonials, client
Speaker:wins, clear breakdowns of your offer. Right?
Speaker:Step by step, this is how it works.
Speaker:If you don't have testimonials or case studies yet, use your own stories here,
Speaker:chances are you are your ideal client.
Speaker:You, five years ago is probably your ideal client now.
Speaker:Case studies, testimonials, client wins, clear breakdowns of your offer.
Speaker:An example, Sarah wants to become a business coach, but she's
Speaker:unsure she can do it.
Speaker:She sees a story about one of your clients who did it despite the odds, and
Speaker:now she believes that she can too.
Speaker:Helping action takers say yes.
Speaker:You can still be speaking to just the action takers.
Speaker:Their top 1 to 3%.
Speaker:The people who know there's a problem, they want to fix it.
Speaker:They want to fix it right now.
Speaker:They're ready to buy and they're still not buying.
Speaker:And oftentimes this is because the offer isn't clear or the checkout process
Speaker:has some friction in it, right?
Speaker:It's not super simple and easy. It takes too long.
Speaker:There's problems or there isn't a direct call to action.
Speaker:You'd be surprised at how often I see that.
Speaker:And even in my own stuff, if I go back and look, it's like, oh, I wasn't
Speaker:making a very clear call to Action. There was I.
Speaker:No, it's normal.
Speaker:So the content to use here is simple.
Speaker:Sales pages, clear emails, reminders, limited time, invitations.
Speaker:If someone's ready to buy and your sales page confuses them, you've lost them.
Speaker:So make it easy. Easy.
Speaker:Have a button says buy now, right?
Speaker:Start the course today. Right?
Speaker:Click here to start the course.
Speaker:Click here to book a call with me.
Speaker:These small shifts make a really big impact.
Speaker:And you know, it isn't that you have to go change everything that you're doing.
Speaker:All I want you to do is start being mindful of the window shoppers and the
Speaker:option weighers as well as the action takers in everything that you do.
Speaker:So that you're including, you know, for now, before
Speaker:you're segmenting more heavily.
Speaker:Just here in the beginning, you can simply be including the elements like
Speaker:the relevance, right, and the belief.
Speaker:And so the testimonials and the clear call to action and the awareness, right?
Speaker:In that very first group.
Speaker:If you think about like a sales page, for example, a sales page is generally
Speaker:going to include all of these elements.
Speaker:That awareness, that bringing awareness to the problem, relevance, right?
Speaker:They can see themselves when you talk about the pain points and the struggle
Speaker:or the identity, the proof that the process works, the testimonials
Speaker:laying out your process step by step.
Speaker:The there might be some education in there and a very clear call to action.
Speaker:A button that says buy now.
Speaker:As I said, you don't have to overhaul anything.
Speaker:I just want you to fine tune your marketing.
Speaker:Even tiny changes in how you structure your content and your messaging
Speaker:can create massive momentum.
Speaker:When you start speaking to the full spectrum of your audience, not just the
Speaker:3%, you'll see more engagement, more belief building, more
Speaker:qualified buyers, saying yes.
Speaker:The way that this started unfolding in my own business and showing up is I started
Speaker:getting DMs from people that I didn't know, just commenting on a.
Speaker:A meditation that they did that I created.
Speaker:Or they reply back to an email, right, and say how much they appreciated this.
Speaker:Or they comment on a video or they make a low tier product purchase
Speaker:something small like advanced manifesting.
Speaker:That's just $9 a month.
Speaker:That's how I started to see that early group.
Speaker:Those window shoppers begin to move into the option weighers
Speaker:and even action takers.
Speaker:Your next power move, audit your last five social posts or emails.
Speaker:Who were they speaking to?
Speaker:Just go take a look and say, did I speak to all of these groups there?
Speaker:If so, wonderful, keep going.
Speaker:If not, remember next time to just bring in a little bit.
Speaker:Share a story, a testimonial if you have it.
Speaker:Talk about the symptoms of the problem, right?
Speaker:That's often the pain points.
Speaker:Even if they're not aware that they have a problem, they will recognize the pain
Speaker:points if they're dealing with them, right?
Speaker:Make it so that your readers can see themselves in what you're talking about.
Speaker:That's usually talking about how the struggle is showing up in everyday life.
Speaker:And make sure that you're making a call to action.
Speaker:Very clear, very simple, very easy to follow through on.
Speaker:You want to create content for the 85% so that they feel seen.
Speaker:Help the 12% believe that it's possible, and then make it easy for the 3% to buy.
Speaker:And if you're doing this on a regular basis, it's like this steady
Speaker:in motion thing, right?
Speaker:So they're moving from 85% to the 12% to the 1 to 3%.
Speaker:And again, you've got this steady flow of clients beginning to come in.
Speaker:When you align your content with audience readiness, you stop spinning your
Speaker:wheels and start seeing real growth.
Speaker:It's a simple understanding of where your people are in the moment
Speaker:and meeting them there. Care.
Speaker:Much love.
