FEATURE: Gain More Clients with a Coaching FAQ<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you are drawing in clients with your website, you may be leaving potential clients unsure of exactly what you do. And a confused person is more likely to leave your site than email or call for an answer.<\/p>\n<h3>Why You Need an FAQ<\/h3>\n<p>People that hop on your web site are searching for answers to their problems. But saying you are a life coach or a business coach is too vague to make a connection. Bear in mind that a lot of people don&#8217;t know what coaching is. They haven&#8217;t had coaching before. They don&#8217;t understand the process.<\/p>\n<p>A Frequently Asked Questions page gives them answers without making them work too hard to get them.<\/p>\n<h3>What To Include in Your FAQ<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>How many sessions you hold each month<\/li>\n<li>If sessions are done by phone, web conferencing or face to face<\/li>\n<li>What happens if a client terminates their coaching before the end of the month<\/li>\n<li>Characteristics of who you like to work with<\/li>\n<li>The length of sessions<\/li>\n<li>Outline of a guarantee of service is one is available<\/li>\n<li>Description of how coaching works<\/li>\n<li>When and how clients pay for their sessions<\/li>\n<li>How long you normally work with a client<\/li>\n<li>Description of your specialities<\/li>\n<li>Any other questions and answers you receive often<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Formatting Your FAQ<\/h3>\n<p>The format that has worked best for me is the question and answer format.<\/p>\n<p>So it would look something like this:<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your coaching structure?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We will have a 45 minute phone coaching session three times a month.<\/p>\n<h3>Would you like to see a coaching FAQ?<\/h3>\n<p>You can check out Flaven Clayton&#8217;s FAQ here:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.life-coaching-resource.com\/life-coaching-questions.htm\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.life-coaching-resource.com\/life-coaching-questions.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<h3>Action:<\/h3>\n<p>1) List the questions you are most likely to receive from potential clients<\/p>\n<p>2) Create your own Coaching FAQ<\/p>\n<p>3) Share your Coaching FAQ at the blog<br \/>\n***<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n<p align=\"left\">Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.solutionbox.com\/Graphics\/sighalf.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"56\" \/><\/p>\n<p>P.S.
