CHAPTER 2<\/h4>\n

5 Damaging Myths Around Small & Mid-Sized Business Coaching<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"chapter2_underline-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

There are a ton of myths around what it takes to be a business coach and some of these myths have been floating around the coaching industry for years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, these false ideas and beliefs have been holding back countless gifted, talented coaches from fulfilling their potential and living their dream of becoming an extraordinary business coach\u2026<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Luckily, you\u2019re not going to be one of them!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"person\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a look at some of the most damaging and deeply misguided myths around small and mid-sized business coaching.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Myth #1:<\/p>\n

You Need To Coach Around The Clock<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A lot of coaches believe that you need to coach pretty much day and night to generate revenue in your coaching business and they also believe that small and mid-sized companies can\u2019t pay well.<\/p>\n

This is 100% false.<\/p>\n

One survey on Protoly reveals that the median hourly rate for coaches is just over $400 and lots of companies are willing to pay that.<\/p>\n

This is why many business coaches are generating massive income every year!<\/p>\n

So forget about this myth and understand that when you have great coaching skills and you know how to connect with the right clients, you\u2019ll quickly grow your coaching business to 6 or even 7-figures.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Myth #2:<\/p>\n

You Need To Be More Successful Than Your Clients<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is a huge myth and it\u2019s the reason behind many non-starters in the coaching business industry.<\/p>\n

The truth is you don\u2019t need to make more money, have extraordinary business skills or be better than your client in all areas, because a coach\u2019s role is to help clients identify their problems and then guide them towards finding a solution that works.<\/p>\n

So you don\u2019t need to be the best at everything\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

You just need to be the best coach you can be.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"symbol\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Myth #3:<\/p>\n

You Only Need To Coach When There\u2019s Trouble<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Just about every business needs a great coach and this is the case whether the company is in \u201ctrouble\u201d or not.<\/p>\n

Coaching isn\u2019t just about helping Founders and business owners get out of a problem or overcome failure. It\u2019s also about creating powerful visions and goals, reaching potential, managing and scaling the business and so much more.<\/p>\n

The idea that you need to focus on companies that are having issues is just not true.<\/span><\/p>\n

The best coaching results often happen when you\u2019re working with a company to help them avoid major pitfalls and challenges in the first place and not just working to apply a \u201cband aid\u201d solution when things have already fallen apart.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Myth #4:<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll Have To Coach Unsuccessful Companies<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is an unfortunate myth or belief that comes from the idea that high performers and successful businesses don\u2019t need a coach.<\/p>\n

The opposite is true.<\/p>\n

People and companies who stubbornly hold onto methods that don\u2019t work rarely reach out to get help from a coach who can get them back on track.<\/p>\n

High performers, on the other hand, are more than happy to ask for help from skilled experts.<\/p>\n

Business coaches often end up coaching winners who have a burning desire to reach for bigger, better goals.<\/p>\n

\"first<\/span><\/p>\n

Myth #5:<\/p>\n

You Need To Coach Anyone Who Asks for Help<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re a coach or thinking about becoming one, here are 2 things that are true about you:<\/p>\n

1. You\u2019re generous and giving<\/span><\/p>\n

2. You want to help as many people as possible<\/span><\/p>\n

These are wonderful traits and they\u2019re important in your work as a business coach but they can also be your worst failings.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a cold, hard truth you need to know and it\u2019s this\u2026<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You can\u2019t be everything to everyone so don\u2019t even try!<\/span><\/p>\n

Your best work as a coach will come through when you\u2019re able to set boundaries with clients and when you work with people and companies that are aligned with your values.<\/p>\n

So don\u2019t make the mistake a lot of new \u2013 and even experienced \u2013 coaches make. Don\u2019t feel like you must coach anyone and everyone who hires you.<\/p>\n

This is a big mistake and you\u2019re guaranteed to regret it sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that you\u2019re familiar with the top 5 myths around coaching companies, it\u2019s time to look at installing positive beliefs that support you in your journey to becoming a successful small and mid-sized business coach.<\/p>\n

Part 1 :<\/h5>\n

First thing to do is to \u201ccatch\u201d your current negative or limiting thoughts and beliefs around coaching. <\/span><\/p>\n

A simple way to do that is to look out for the following words in your mind and in your speech:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"text\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Take some time \u2013 maybe a few days and up to a week \u2013 to note down your negative thoughts and beliefs about becoming a business coach.<\/p>\n

Part 2 :<\/h5>\n

Then, choose one negative belief at a time and write about a time in your life when that belief was not true.<\/span><\/p>\n

For instance, if your negative belief is, \u201cI\u2019m worried I\u2019m not confident enough to coach companies as clients.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now write about the times you succeeded at something even when you didn\u2019t feel confident, when you were nervous or uncertain. This could be the time you did well in a school exam even though you had butterflies in your stomach, or the time you crushed a public speaking gig even though you were afraid to get on stage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember: no win is too small.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Write down every single time you did something that countered each negative belief and you\u2019ll soon find that it starts to lose its grip on you and that it eventually disappears.<\/p>\n

CHAPTER 3<\/h4>\n

5 Top Qualities To Powerfully Coach Small & Mid-Sized Companies<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"chapter3_underline-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Lots of coaches take their best shot at working with small and mid-sized companies but most of them never get to the level of success they\u2019re shooting for. <\/span><\/p>\n

This usually happens because they think powerful, game-changing coaching comes from having the \u201cright certification\u201d or the \u201cright qualification.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

The truth is no amount of formal training can take the place of \u201cmake-or-break\u201d traits that help you work with companies on a deep, transformational level.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, most coaches end up investing a ton of time, money and energy on fine-tuning their coaching skills and not enough time developing the qualities that make the difference between being a great business coach.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the qualities you need to become a masterful business coach for small and mid-sized companies:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"label\"<\/span>\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Quality #1:<\/p>\n

Passionate About Growing Businesses<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re not passionate about all things related to starting, growing and scaling a company, and if you\u2019re not excited about helping clients uplevel their business and entrepreneurial skills, it\u2019s time to reconsider coaching small and mid-sized businesses. <\/span><\/p>\n

These companies often experience lots of \u201cgrowing pains\u201d, challenges and obstacles.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of your key roles is to hold a positive, supportive space so you can guide your clients, no matter how hard things get. <\/p>\n

You won\u2019t be able to do that effectively if you don\u2019t have true passion for your work.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Quality #2:<\/p>\n

Flexible And Open-Minded<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"text\"<\/span><\/p>\n

This is especially true for small and mid-sized companies that often need their coach to also be a mentor, a trainer, a facilitator, a consultant, and sometimes even a life coach. <\/p>\n

A truly great business coach needs to be flexible, open-minded, ready and willing to step into these various roles when the need arises.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

Quality #3:<\/p>\n

Comfortable with Being Disliked<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is a tough one for a lot of kind-hearted coaches who don\u2019t want to \u201cupset\u201d their clients with hard truths. <\/span><\/p>\n

The danger with this is that a lot of good coaches end up \u201csugar-coating\u201d the truth with their clients and this could lead to confusion and ultimately, less than favorable results.<\/span><\/p>\n

A coach who\u2019s willing to be disliked is a coach who is willing to tell the client what they need to hear and not necessarily what they want to hear.<\/p>\n

Real growth and improvement can happen only when a coach says what needs to be said for the greater good of the company, the team and the Founders, and not just the things that gets the coach praise, approval or admiration.<\/p>\n

\"maroon\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Quality #4:<\/p>\n

Integrity And Honesty<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is related to \u201ccomfortable with being disliked\u201d where you\u2019re committed to being honest no matter what and it\u2019s also about being in full integrity in your work as a coach.<\/p>\n

Never make promises you can\u2019t keep and make sure you\u2019re ALL in when it comes to helping your clients achieve their goals and their ultimate vision.<\/p>\n

One great way to stay on the path of integrity is to make sure that you set expectations from the start. This helps to clear confusion and doubt and it also means both you and client are clear on what to expect, moving forward.<\/p>\n

\"quality_5\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Quality #5:<\/p>\n

Access<\/span>ible With Healthy Boundaries<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The best coaches in the world want the best for their clients and a big part of this is to make yourself easily accessible so they can connect with you and check-in with you when they need you. <\/span><\/p>\n

Often this means giving them opportunities to reach you outside \u201cofficial\u201d coaching sessions and customizing packages or contracts so clients feel fully supported. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Just to be clear, this isn\u2019t about letting people reach you or talk to you day and night and on holidays and weekends. Make sure you have healthy boundaries in place so your clients understand what\u2019s acceptable and what\u2019s not.<\/span><\/p>\n

Healthy boundaries allow you to show up at the highest level as a coach and it creates a framework where you get to nurture a powerful, respectful and truly transformational relationship with the companies you work with.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/span><\/p>\n

You just learned about the 5 \u201cmake-or-break\u201d traits you need to successfully coach small and mid-sized companies. Let\u2019s expand on this list and add more rockstar qualities so you\u2019ll have a deeper understanding on what it takes to become a powerful coach.<\/p>\n

Step 1 :<\/h5>\n

Do some research over the next few days and identify 1 to 3 business coaches that you feel are great at what they do.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 2 :<\/h5>\n
