“Exquisite Client Support: Extending the Ripple Effect of your Coaching to Increase The Longevity of Current Clients, Build Referrals and Create Raving Fans!”
On April 28th, 2011 we had the dynamic duo from the Coaches Console , Kate Steinbacher and Melinda Cohan, who talked with us about how to automate the mundane aspects of running your executive coaching business, and increase the longevity of current clients, build referrals, and create raving fans so you don’t have to be a brilliant marketer.
Kate addressed:
- How to provide exquisite support before, during, after AND in-between the coaching session (without spending MORE time).
- How to avoid a trap that coaches fall into that only creates more marketing work for them in the future.
- The #1 reason clients will hire you, rehire you and refer you!
- The distinction between Good Support vs. High-level Support vs. Exquisite Support (and why you better know the difference if you want a thriving business)
- How to gain back 55 minutes each day; 27½ hours each month and 2 months a year (imagine how many more clients you could work with if you had that kind of extra time)
- 4 specific strategies you can implement immediately to integrate this level of service in your business
