No business anywhere is guaranteed to find clients. Every business both established and new have to focus on business development, if they didn’t there would be no need for sales teams!
However, the life coaching market is new and exciting and is a market that is attracting a lot of attention from potential clients across the world. People are becoming more focussed on their ambitions, their goals and their mental health in terms of work and life balance, this is where you come in!
Who can be a life coach?
Life coaching is the unbrella term for a number of different coaching types.
Life coaches sometimes focus on a particular niche such as Executive Coach, Business Coach, Career Coach or Relationship Coach.
Some life coaches focus on spiritual coaching and confidence coaching. So essentially anyone with the passion to help others achieve the best version of themselves can be a life coach.
Do I need to be certified as a life coach to practice?
Given the lack of regulation, you can simply put up a website and declare yourself to be a coach without any kind of training or qualification; you may even be a good coach without any training.
But generally we believe that a good training programme is crucial in equipping you with both the confidence to really support your clients and the techniques and tools you need to be effective.
Most importantly though, your clients will want the peace of mind and trust element of you being a fully accredited and certified coach.
