Is Your Marketing Strategy Designed for Someone Else's Business?


Hi, Reader,

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" in your marketing—posting consistently, building funnels, running ads—but still not seeing the results you want, you're not alone.

The truth is, much of the marketing advice out there wasn't designed for coaching businesses like yours.It's often tailored for influencers, large agencies, or businesses with big teams and budgets.

In my latest blog post, I delve into the real reasons why traditional marketing strategies often fall short for coaches and what you can do instead.

Here are a few key takeaways:

  • Consistency Isn't Strategy:Posting regularly without a cohesive plan leads to content clutter, not client conversions.
  • Funnels Aren't One-Size-Fits-All:Many funnel strategies are built for businesses with different models and resources.
  • You Need a Marketing Ecosystem:A sustainable, measurable system tailored to your unique business and audience.

If you're ready to break free from the cycle of ineffective marketing tactics and build a strategy that truly aligns with your coaching business, this post is for you.

Hi, Reader!Here’s something I believe with my whole heart: You are a steward — not at the mercy of algorithms, and not dependent on gurus and bizfluencers. Stewardship is about tending what you’ve been entrusted with — your time, energy, relationships, and business — so it thrives, compounds, and blesses others. Stewardship means you’re not a victim of shifting algorithms or a slave to playbooks. You are the one who gets to guide, tend, and grow what you’ve been given. It’s not just...
