HIM: “I know I could get a better job if I could just get focused.” YOU: Well that’s just what coaches do. Have you tried a coach?

8.Ask a friend, colleague, or relative to mention you, and coaching, when they hear others talking about problems, challenges, etc.

9.Ask each of your friends, colleagues and relatives to take 15 of your business cards and disperse them.

10.Next time someone complains to you about someone, suggest they refer that person to you for coaching!

11.Talk to professionals in your life about coaching. They see lots of people in a day.

When you visit dentist or pediatrician, let them know there are coaches who market professionals, help them grow their practices, make more money, get more clients, and get better organized.

At same time, suggest referring. Victims of breast cancer do better statistically and survive longer when they’re in a support group. Coaching is support.

Do psychiatrists and psychologists in your town know that coaches help with compliance? Do they know coaches have opportunity to refer clients for mental health services? Are there services they’d like to refer for, such as their ADD clients?

12. Whenever you talk with someone who deals with a lot of people (college professor, manager, business owner) they’ll talk about their problems with these people. Suggest coaching!

12.Write about coaching. Your byline will be on there. You’ll get your publicity too.

13.When you hear someone talking about a practical skill they’d like to master, suggest coaching.

There is now a cooking coach, a responsible recovery coach, a coach for expats in Bermuda, a fathering coach, a retirement coach, a coach for women with bipolar disorder, an introverts coach, a breast cancer recovery coach, a tantric coach, and a smoking cessation coach.

14.When you hear someone expressing a need or a challenge, tell them about coaching.

If you aren’t sure there is a coach for that (yet), say, “I bet there’s a coach for that!” Take their card or email address and offer to look it up for them and let them know. Many people do not know how to use search engines and/or may forget to do it. When you get back to your office, look it up on Internet. For instance, I just entered “bipolar+coach” on a lark, and yes, there is one!

15.Next time you hear someone complaining about a situation, tell them a coaching success story, either one of your own (confidentially) or one of your colleague’s, or one you’ve read about. 16.If you’re in a store or business that has problems a coach could address, tell them about coaching.

This includes every time you complain. Say “the salesperson was rude AND WOULD BENEFIT FROM COACHING.”

SUGGEST COACHING. HELP PLANT THE SEED.
