Scaling To 6 Figures And Beyond
Ever wondered how to scale your coaching business to six figures and beyond? In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey and the exact roadmap I’d follow if I could do it all over again.
Let me tell you a little story about my own journey. In my first year of business, I didn’t even track my income because, honestly, I didn’t take myself seriously. But when I finally started paying attention, I realized I had made about $15,000. The next year, it was $24,000, then $48,000, and finally, I hit that magical six-figure mark! And guess what? It doubled again after that.
The key? I stopped thinking about “making money” and started treating my business like a science experiment. I’d change one variable, get feedback, and then make adjustments. It was all about testing, learning, and growing.
But here’s the thing: I had to decide to go all in. I invested my time, energy, and even money I didn’t have (like $500 a month!) into my business. I listened to podcasts, read books, and attended workshops. If you’re not willing to take that risk, then entrepreneurship might not be the right fit for you.
Now, let’s talk about the four stages of coaching growth:
Imposter.
This is where we all start. We’re full of self-doubt and struggle to charge for our services. But it’s also a time for learning and experimenting. Get clear on your niche, your offer, and your framework. Play with pricing, test things out, and overcome those money mindset gremlins.
Emerging.
You’re starting to gain confidence and see some success. Now it’s time to double down on what’s working. Get visible, build relationships, and realize that you’re actually good at this! Start building an ecosystem around your business.
Hidden Gem.
You’re confident in your abilities and consistently getting clients results. Now it’s about building authority and becoming the go-to expert in your niche. Gather testimonials, refine your messaging, and have a solid visibility strategy.
Expert.
You’re a recognized thought leader and sought-after expert. You’re teaching on other people’s platforms, being invited on podcasts, and your funnel is working like a charm. You might even be building a team to support your growth.
There you have it, coaches! That’s my roadmap to six figures and beyond. It’s a journey, not a destination, and it’s definitely not always easy. But I promise you, it’s SO worth it.
Remember these key takeaways to scale your coaching business:
- Invest in yourself. You’re your greatest asset.
- Build a strong framework. It’s the foundation of your business.
- Refine your niche. Get crystal clear on who you serve.
- Increase your visibility. Show up and share your magic!
- Embrace failure. It’s all part of the learning process.
