Description

Are you a Coach, Consultant, or other service professional who makes a living selling your expertise?


Or, maybe you're an aspiring Coach or Consultant just getting ready to start your business.


Either way, one of the best ways to make sure you succeed in your Coaching or Consulting business is to set yourself apart with a unique, compelling, and memorable Brand.


A Brand that...

  • Authentically represents WHO you are and WHAT you do for your clients

  • Resonates with your Ideal Clients so they're naturally attracted to you

  • Sets you apart from everyone else who does what you do

  • Communicates what's unique and special about you and your services


When you take the time to create an Authentic Brand that uniquely represents you and the work you do for your clients, you no longer blend in with the crowd.


  • Your business stands out.

  • Your marketing stands out.

  • YOU stand out!


If you're worried that you can't brand yourself because you're not trained in marketing, please set those fears aside.


In this course, I'm going to...


  • Walk you step-by-step, through a simple process that will help you uncover what's unique and special about you and your Coaching or Consulting services.


  • Help you approach the Branding process from a variety of different perspectives, so whether you're a left-brained thinker or a right-brained creative, you'll be able to create a Brand that Authentically represents you and your Coaching or Consulting services.


  • Help you create a Brand Blueprint to guide you in brainstorming potential business brand names.


  • Teach you 3 different Brainstorming Techniques that I've used, and taught for years, to help get your creative juices flowing so you can come up with the perfect Brand Name for your business.


  • Bring Coach and Consultant Branding to life with actual examples of how other Coaches and Consultants are branding themselves.


  • Teach you something often left out of Branding courses and conversations... and that is how to research potential brand names to make sure no one else is using them BEFORE you invest time and money branding yourself.


  • How to protect your brand name once you have it, so you can make sure no other coach or consultant in your industry can come along and start using it. And trust me, it happens! I want to make sure it doesn't happen to you, and if by chance it does (it's happened to me multiple times in my 20+ years in business), you'll know exactly what to do to protect your brand.


  • How to implement your brand across every touchpoint of your Coaching or Consulting business so you can avoid what I call "Gift Wrap Branding" (which is NOT an effective way to brand yourself).


So....


  • If you’re tired of having to work so hard to stand out, get attention and get clients, this course is for you


  • If you see other Coaches or Consultants with great brand names and you’ve always wished you had one too, now is your chance


  • If you’ve ever been confused by exactly what branding is, or how to brand yourself effectively, this course will answer all of your questions and walk you, step-by-step, through the process of creating your very own Memorable and Authentic Brand


Even if you don't want to create a Branded Business Name, and you just want to do business using your own Given Name, you still need to Brand Yourself Authentically.


In this course you'll learn how to Brand Yourself Authentically, whether you decide to use your own name or create a branded business name.
