How I Got 1600 Subscribers Last MonthWritten by David Wood
Continued from page 1
"Before I show you exactly how these ordinary people built such successful practices, make sure you take away a free copy of '50 Power Questions to Ask Your Client'. It comes with a free subscription to my Ezine 'Mentor Monthly™', which teaches you how to coach more effectively, and gain clients with ease. (Note:I will never disclose your private information to anyone else, and you may un'subscribe with two clicks of mouse)." Right under that paragraph is subscription box. The 'thank you for subscribing page' pops up separately so when they close it they are still reading sales letter. Free Download Notice in above example I am not asking them to sign up for a newsletter. Rather, I suggest a free download of '50 Power Questions', which includes a free subscription. I'm now using this technique at a lot of my sites e.g. www.life-coaching-resource.com. In top left I have monthly free download as '50 Power Questions.' In order to get free download, people often choose to get newsletter at same time (note I don't require it though - they CAN uncheck box if they really want to.) What could you put together that you can put together that will be of value to your customers? (Or if you like, you can provide my '50 Power Questions' on your site as a free download. Just go to one of above sites and follow process to get download, and then place it on your site way I've done at www.life-coaching-resource.com ) Radio Interview I also received about 200 subscribers from a national radio interview. National was great, but I had to get up at 4am to do it! Have you been in contact with your local media for radio or newspaper articles recently? * * * I hope these tips help.

5) Another great answer is: "If you could do anything, what's number one thing you would change in your life?". Put it back on them - after all, that's what coaching is. 6) Many people will say "that's interesting". Don't let this pass. Ask them "What about it do you find interesting?" and go from there. 7) Other great questions: "Have you ever considered working with a coach?" "If you had your own coach, what would you get started on first?" The Invitation Sometimes all it takes to set up session is for you to invite them to have one! (I know - rocket science, right?) Sample: "What I usually do for people who are interested in coaching, is set up a 20-30 minute chat to talk about their goals, and give them an experience of being coached. I don't mind if they become clients or not; it helps me develop my skills, and it's one way I develop referrals. No charge. Would you be interested that?" * * * OK - time to set up some introductory sessions!
