Manage episode 474941276 series 3490519
Ever feel like you're doing all the things—posting on social, networking, launching offers—and still wondering... when am I actually going to land a client?
You’re not alone.
In this episode of Make It Visible, I’m breaking down the REAL timeline behind signing your first (or next) coaching client. Whether you're just getting started or in a slow season, this will give you clarity, confidence, and a strategy to move forward.
✨ Plus, I’m sharing why time isn’t the problem—and what to focus on instead if you want to speed things up.
🔑 If you’re tired of playing the waiting game, this one’s for you.
What you'll learn from this episode:
- Why there’s no “set” timeline for signing coaching clients—and what factors actually influence how fast it happens.
- The one shift that makes your audience go from watching to working with you.
- How to build trust quickly, even if you’re starting from scratch.
- The hidden reason you might be repelling potential clients without knowing it.
- What to focus on daily to stay visible (and get hired faster).
- Real talk on comparison and what “overnight success” actually looks like behind the scenes.
