The Missing Pieces Are Found
Hello,
If you are a trainer/coach who helps your clients improve sports performance, business performance or life skills, you MUST also have a deep understanding of sleep science and brain fitness.
WHY?
I could get really nerdy here…but,…. okay…. I’m going to get nerdy just for a minute! [Read more…]
No Stress Here. This is Your Golden Ticket.
Think about your current coaching career.
I am willing to bet your clients experience stress (not the good kind) on a regular, or simi-regular basis.
It’s called life.
As a coach, do you know all the physiological and psychological signs and symptoms? Do you know the leading causes of stress? How do you define the distinct difference between good and bad stress? Do you have an action plan for clients who experience high levels or extended periods of stress?
It’s actually a really interesting and complex topic. And, due to our hectic world, coaches who have specific skills and credentials in stress management are doing very well.
In the last 3 days, we’ve had 12 new students become Certified Stress Management Coaches. When asked, they said clients are demanding the skills, resources and solutions. I wanted to pass this along to you.

Blogging is the most fundamental aspect of content marketing, since it’s basically like fuel to your car. Without regularly adding blog posts to your fitness business’s website, then you won’t be able to generate organic inbound traffic; however, if you are keeping up with your content schedule -then your website will be able to flourish from a healthy stream of new inbound visitors.
At the same time, it does matter what type of fuel you use to gas up that Camaro. If you’re using low octane gasoline, then you’re going to get low fuel efficiency. If you’re gassing up with the good stuff, then you can expect better performance. Same goes with blog content.
If you haven’t been capitalizing on Pinterest to help you get the word out about your world class online life coach or online fitness pro business, you’re missing out big time!
There are actually 4 Musketeers when it comes to social media marketing right now.
Now that visual content is king, Pinterest is one of the big 4 must-use social media and content marketing platforms. It used to be just Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
Instagram is on their heels, and Snapchat is making a valiant effort to catch up with it’s snowballing followership of millennial users.
In this post you get a great step-by-step guide for setting up and optimizing your business Pinterest account from scratch!
And as if that wasn’t enough! [Read more…]
Visual content has become the most in-demand form of content. Photos trump text and videos trump photos.
Well, Instagram decided to make photos and videos, the best content we can post, the core of their platform.
Unlike any of the others, this is an opportunity to create and curate high quality visual content to best represent your brand as well as interact and engage with other instagram accounts on common interests.

There are a few go-to sayings people like to throw around when enthusiastically discussing business growth.
I really like this one by Martin Luther King, Jr. Not only is it elegant, but it reflects a rapidly increasing number of real life stories in which online coaches and fitness pros are learning to scale their business to 6 figures+ in just months:
“If you can’t fly then run. If you can’t run then walk. If you can’t walk then crawl. Whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”
“Sleep is the ultimate performance enhancing drug with only positive side effects.”
– Arianna Huffington
In 2007, Editor in Chief Arianna Huffington fainted while working in her office. When she passed out, her head slammed on her desk breaking her cheekbone and resulting in the need for five stitches in the area surrounding her eye.
Attributing her faint and injuries to a lack of sleep she proclaimed herself a “sleep evangelist”. Here are some points she covered in a recent post:
The effects of poor sleep can be devastating to your health and wellbeing. It can shorten your life and make you more prone to serious disease processes.
As you read this article more than 1/3 of American’s are getting less than 6 hours of sleep each night. Compare that to just over 1/10 back in 1942.
There are Approximately 60 million prescriptions for sleep medications each year.

Snapchat is experiencing an avalanche of new millennial users and a minuscule yet rapidly growing number of business-based early-adopters.
Compare that to the vast sea of new and established brands, drowning each other out across the fast social media oceans of Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
After experiencing a mind-blowing jump from 4 billion to 10 billion daily video views since last May (outperforming Facebook in the process), Snapchat is now the hottest social media platform for radically building your digital brand and client-base, as an industry-leading personal development experts, wellness coach or fitness pro.

The way you think about money matters to your coaching business. If you have a money mindset steeped in scarcity, fear, and thoughts of “never enough,” those beliefs will negatively impact every area of your business, driving clients away and keeping profits at bay.
If you’re constantly strapped for cash, drowning in debt, or just can’t seem to find that sweet spot where your profits outweigh your losses, it could be attributed to a bad money mindset.
Our beliefs about money are ingrained in us from an early age. If your parents or primary caregivers were always stressed about money, you could be unconsciously creating situations that cause you to experience that same kind of stress. [Read more…]
