Part 4 of a four part series by Kim Ades, MBA

What's Journaling Got to Do With It?


Part 4: Challenge 4 - Making the Most of Your Time


Many coaches complain about being at the mercy of the clock.

"There are only so many billable hours in the day."
" There is a natural ceiling to my income."

These coaches are frustrated with the natural limits imposed on them by the traditional coaching model. They bill for the hours that they coach. They don't bill for the hours that they are engaged in marketing activities, networking or making sales, and if they are busy coaching, then their revenue slides.

It's a vicious cycle that's difficult to break until one is able to look at their coaching practice as a business instead of a practice and start asking strategic questions:

  • "How do I leverage my time?"
  • "How can I work fewer hours and get paid more?"
  • "How can I set it up so that I don't even have to be there?"
  • "How can I go on vacation and coach without interrupting my family time?"
A Journaling Platform will help you to reconfigure your coaching practice and enable you to build a coaching business where you are running it, instead if it running you. How does this work?
  1. A Journaling Platform will enable you to create e-courses and deliver them without your manual involvement. All you have to do is create the course material in audio, video, or written format, and use the Journaling Platform to deliver the content on a schedule triggered by a client's start date. With e-courses, you can leverage your time instead of being at the mercy of each hour.
  2. A Journaling Platform will enable you to provide online coaching services, enabling you to be in touch with them whenever you want from wherever you want.
  3. If you want to create a coaching company, with a series of coaches who work for you, a Journaling Platform will help you to create a consistent process for all of your coaches. In addition, the journaling and coach comments will enable you to keep tabs on the quality of coaching that is being delivered by and on behalf of your company.
  4. Product Development is faster and easier with a Journaling Platform because it allows you to collect extremely valuable, accurate, and timely data about the needs of your client base. If you know what they are looking for, all you need to do is deliver a product that they have indicated they already need.
A journaling platform is an incredibly powerful marketing and sales device for both new and experienced coaches.
