EP 304 - Marketing for Coaches: 3 Simple Steps to Get Your First Paid Client
Marketing for coaches does not have to be complicated, overwhelming, or expensive. In this video I show you exactly how to simplify it. If you are a coach who has never had a paid client and you are determined that 2026 will be different, this video will help you create a marketing plan that feels doable, aligned, and repeatable.
In this episode, I break down how to market a coaching business with no clients using three simple steps that work whether you are an introvert, tech-averse, short on time, or just tired of overthinking marketing. I reframe marketing in a way that makes it feel natural and approachable so you can stop avoiding it and start taking consistent action.
I walk you through how to decide what to talk about so you are not constantly searching for new ideas, where to market your coaching business based on your personality and resources, and how often to market so you can build momentum without burning out. I also explain why talking to people is one of the most overlooked and powerful marketing strategies for new coaches, and how free, simple actions can lead to your first paid clients.
This video is especially helpful if you are a new coach, a woman over 50, or someone who wants to build a coaching business without paid ads, complicated funnels, or daily pressure to be perfect. By the end, you will have a clear framework you can use all year long to market your coaching business with confidence.
