Ryan how I am just now seeing this? YIKES. How did I miss it?

I know Paul well, and I’m assuming that this was a misunderstanding. He’s definitely one of the good guys.

Let me look into it a bit for you. I have complete confidence that either is has been already or can be worked out.

For me, as a coach, I only take on 5 or less monthly VIP clients at a time. The people who I choose to work with are the ones who I am clear on a vision and can give THEM results if they do the work. I have a very clear person who I work with because it simply does not FEEL like work for me if I have that person as a client. 🙂

And, no, I don’t need the clients. I can actually earn more money each month without coaching clients. I choose to do it to hone my skills as a teacher, too, and because it makes me happy.

I hope that helps explain. Please don’t be frustrated. You just haven’t found the right person for right NOW yet.

Big hugs,

As a coach, I have to believe in the project and skills a client brings to the table. If I can’t see that clearly and how I’d be able to shape them into profits – I have to pass on the client.

Truth is, I don’t NEED the work. (Most coaches don’t!)

The better question is do I want it? I want to work with clients who come to bat with excitement and a great project.

Maybe it’s not that you can’t find the right coach, maybe it’s that you haven’t found the right project that interests one.

I saw an offer for his Nichology product that offers PLR and other benefits and thought I would check it out. Turned out I didn’t like the format and was having trouble finding value so, as instructed, I went into his interface and canceled. Short story is that he rebilled me without my consent and refuses to respond to any support emails. I’ve filed a support request with paypal to see if they will reverse the charge.

Paul did a great job converting someone that had a positive view of his brand and converted me into someone who thinks he is a crook! Hope you are having a better experience than me.

A really amazing series 🙂 Having a business coach is really important. When I started out as a freelance writer in 2008, I didn’t have anyone to guide. Basically, I didn’t know anyone in the industry and figured everything out on my own.

Not that I am doing bad on my own but I really wish to have had a mentor or coach during those years *Sigh*

Hey Nicole,

Curious on how your coaching is going. Any chance we could get a followup post on what has been working and your thoughts after a few weeks of coaching?

Thanks Karon! I need to make that a slogan! “Far Past Awesomeness!” 😉
