Space is limited, so… BOOK YOUR CONSULT NOW. A personal note from Kimberly… I will let you know, this episode will not make everyone happy. There may be some pushback from your ego (check it before she wrecks it). And that is good. For one, it’s my enneagram 8, the loving challenger come out, and for two, this is meant to grow you and stretch you. If you are a coach and you CAN’T answer these questions, please invest in yourself, get a coach, so you can live in alignment with who you desire to be in the world so you can serve more people. And, if you’re looking to get a coach, be bold and ASK these questions, any good coach should be able to answer these happily and with ease.  This episode was inspired by several calls I had with clients who had invested in coaches with little to no payoff or transformation. After hearing from these clients, and observing a common trend in the industry, I felt compelled to address it. While, this was recorded nearly a year ago, those investments I made in myself and my business in early 2019 in coaching paid of...like 389%! Yes, last year Crown Yourself Enterprises LLC grew in gross profits 389% in ONE YEAR. And it’s only getting better from there. That is what I attribute to the power of coaching.  Yes, coaching is an investment, and it can have MASSIVE PAYOFF, when you’re working with the RIGHT person for you, who is aligned with your values and leads with consciousness.  And, it’s also for any person who’s thinking of becoming a coach. I hope this episode serves to guide you with a few questions you can ask yourself when you’re questioning how much you should charge, what your value is, and how to keep improving and up-leveling your value (like the badass you are). In this episode, you’ll learn why as a client you must do your due diligence before you work with a coach (3:30), what the stats are on private coaching and why it’s so valuable (5:00), how much book-knowledge you actually retain or put into practice from the self-improvement and business books you read (6:30), why your desire to level up your self-worth must be an energetic match for where your coach is (7:30), why you want a coach who has made the same investment in themselves as they are asking you to make (8:30), what’s the difference between a coach, a guru, and an expert (11:30), how coaches can be hypocrites and can self-sabotage by not having a coach themselves (13:00), and much more. Here are the questions for you to ask any coach before you work with them: How much have they invested in themselves? Have they made the same monetary investment as they are asking you to make? Who is coaching them? What is the coach’s process? And if you’re a coach, or getting into creating a coaching business, here are the 4 questions you should ask yourself before you structure your pricing and packages: How much have you invested in your own personal and business development? What is the max $ amount you have made in a coach yourself? Who is currently coaching you? What is your coaching process? If you’re looking to build your coaching business, than jump on a 1:1 consult call with me and lets see how we can bring you into alignment with these questions (and feel free to ask me them on our call as well) Space is limited.
