Love the info but you CAN start an online business with no/little money. The reason cash is great is because it offsets the lack of sales/marketing skills. Most coaches believe the practice/deep knowledge is the #1 priority but it's how that information is packaged. That's why marketers can out-beat the practitioner with less "formal training" on the topic. I do agree that more money makes it easier but there is nothing wrong with taking 6-12 months bootstrap to understand the fundamentals- IF the person prioritizes learning over fast growth (at least higher potential).

Loved this video! I think my biggest set back is the financial part of getting started not having anything to Invest at the moment and it's killing me because I am at a 10 right now I've already started coaching a few friends and family to get my feet wet even got the name and calling myself a inspiring health coach....really trying to get as much done as I can right until circumstances change.I'm just so ready !!!

Hello, My name is Michelle and I am currently in my last semester of Health and Wellness at Purdue University. I have decided to get my bachelor's degree in health and wellness because I am very interested in helping others. My main focus in the wellness field is stress management and I have been watching your videos that are really helping me gain insight into the business side of it all. Getting started has been my biggest block of all. I have been trying to get started but there always seems to be something I did not learn at Purdue especially when it comes to starting and running a business. Thank you for your insight. I will be looking back for more from you.

Loved your video, really informative and straight to the point. I have a question for you. How do you suggest planning out the introductory class. I have a solid plan of what I want to talk about but it’s just making the first video seems so daunting. How do you suggest I go about it?

1) Be sure about your motivation and goals/Vision/niche 2) Aces your gaps and get the missing training 3) Financial resources to start of the good foot: Training, website, publicity...from 5 to 10 thousand USD 4) Mindset: High commitment 5) How Long to success? It depends on what your expectations are; just no hundreds of thousand in 3 months; by experience earn enough within One year 6) How much time needed daily: From 2h a day to full time, it makes no real difference; the most important is motivation/ enthusiasm

What’s holding me back is my confidence and finances. I got my certification 4 years ago and have gone through business courses, coaches etc but I bump up against finances and can’t continue the programs. I work two jobs and barely scraping by. I want to be a full time coach but my finances are holding me me back as well as my condo next

I am a male RN with background in clinical manual massage, advanced wound care, and post op post medical patients. Looking into this to replace my current career path. I'm a 10 on the ready scale and hope that I can replace my income as I have a family to support. I've got some startup capital and would like to get this business going as quickly as possible. How can I get started?

I am very interested and passionate in pursuing a career as a Health Coach and the major deciding factor is which training school to attend. I am very impressed with the 2 videos I have watched by you and would truly appreciate some more incite from you. Thanks again for all that you do. Hope to hear back from you soon . I have received some info from another school and they are looking for a reply soon. I believe maybe it was fate that I saw your video before deciding. Have a good day, and make it nice for someone else

You're not alone with either of those issues, Nicole! They hold a LOT of people back from getting started - but they can definitely be overcome! If you're right at the beginning of your journey, have you checked out my program to see if it might be a good fit for you? Everything you need to know is here: wellnesscoachacademy.com

I'm a doctor of physical therapy and would love to venture out and start generating content and cultivating an audience / community of like-minded people who could benefit from what I have to offer. I guess I struggle with defining my target audience. I need to reflect on what my unique strengths are , and how I can combine those to have something that is unique and that people will gravitate towards. I'm also on the introverted side and not social medial savvy at all ; I barely use Facebook and that's it. No Twitter, Instagram, or any of the other dozen platforms out there. So I feel very ill-equipped to survive in today's world when it comes to marketing and generating an online presence.

You can start a business without money, the demand will drive your business. Start small, I’ve seen so many use life savings to start a business that just goes broke….the demand needs to be there first!

I'm well qualified but the one thing holding me back is lack of knowledge on marketing and tech. I have no social media following and no social proof yet either. I'm presently working on my mindset and a 9 out of 10 in terms of commitment 🙂

I hope you see this but what I’m struggling with is finding clients. How do we find and get them? I am so shy and have no clue how to do this… an6 suggestions? Also it’s starting to be more regulated by the NBHWC for anyone wonder8ng! You can look at their recommendations for a program to join for a solid program. Well coaches is highly recommended

HI Dacia, you will need a website where your potential clients can contact and read about everything you have to offer. I can help design a modern responsive website for a little fee and all you will have to do is run ads on social media and watch your potential clients find you. Let me know what you think
