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!If your feed looked like mine last week, you saw some version of "Claude is watermarking its text now," followed by a lot of speculation, a round of "I told you so" from folks who've been wary of AI all along, an equal round of "But the ideas are mine!" from the other direction, and a few people announcing they were switching tools. Keep in mind that social is always going to amplify the extremes on both sides in any situation. That's what gets engagement and keeps eyeballs on...

Hi, Reader!If I asked you right now where your last five to ten leads came from, what would you actually say? (Seriously, reply and let me know) For most service providers, it's some version of "I think Instagram," "maybe it was a referral," or "someone probably saw my newsletter." That's not tracking you can trust — it's a hedged bet you're staking your business on, masquerading as an answer. My latest video is about closing that gap. It walks through UTM parameters — the small tags you add...
