Lifecoach.com is a great domain name that gets thousands of hits from people looking for coaching each month and The Coaching Directory is it's partner site. You can have the most beautiful, magnificent website in the world and it will do absolutely nothing for your business if no one can find it. At the very least, you need to be linked to a site that gets traffic. The currency of the web is how many unique visitors your site gets. A website without traffic is like a billboard in the Sahara desert. If no one sees it, it may as well not exist. Lifecoach gets an average of 7000 unique visitors each month.
Lifecoach.com is the online “yellowpage” address. Life coach is the generic term for personal and business coaches. The more life coaches who join and use the domain, the more the exposure will increase for the site. So, by virtue of the domain name alone and our top ranking on google, you are already ahead of any other coaching directory out there. Before you list yourself with any directory service, you should first ask the question, “How will the public find this site?”
The benefit of association with the excellent reputation and public profile of Talane Miedaner, the website’s host. Talane is a respected, Master Certified Coach, and international best-selling author of Coach Yourself to Success, The Secret Laws of Attraction, and Coach Yourself to a New Career (March, 2010) --all McGraw-Hill. All of Talane's books advertise lifecoach.com in the resources section.
License to use thecoachingdirectory.com domain name in your own marketing materials. Get your name before it is taken. (Obviously, there is only one per customer). We will provide an email forwarding service for you. In other words, your current email address is johnsmith@aol.com. You keep that, but can now use john.smith@thecoachingdirectory.com on your business cards, etc. This is easier to remember and associates you with other credentialed life coaches. In the next few years, if you aren’t an accredited life coach, people will wonder why not. Reserve your name now. It’s first come, first reserved!
The only coaching directory geared toward the public first, coaches second. Both LifeCoach.com and The Coaching Directory are committed to providing a fun, risk-free environment where prospective clients can get an experience of coaching. If you want people to get experience of you as a coach, you first need to provide a fun and safe environment for that to occur. Which is why we offer the public:
The member coaches have their own “back door” behind the scenes [coaches login on the upper right hand corner of thecoachingdirectory.com]. No marketing to coaches will be done on the front page—it is all about taking care of the public looking for coaching. The Coaching Directory does not bombard the public with reasons why they should list themselves as a coach. This is completely irrelevant to them. I get queries all the time for customers desperately trying to figure out how to find a qualified coach. The Coaching Directory is the answer to this problem—an international coaching directory limited to coaches committed to professional coach training and development who agree to uphold the highest standards and ethics of the profession.
ONLY certified, trained coaches or coaches in ICF accredited coach training programs will be allowed to register with The Coaching Directory. Coaches in training will receive a first year discount of $197 to join The Coaching Directory as most new coaches make less than $10,000 their first year. (Keep your day job!) Coaches who have graduated are charged an annual fee of $295.00 for their listing.
Opportunity to get exposure to prospective clients by hosting Coach Yourself to Success Meetup.com groups. I will provide each coach/host who is interested in leading a group with a free Leader’s Guide. This is a free public service. The purpose is: 1) to create local communities of people interested in coaching and improving their lives; and 2) to create a risk-free way for people to get exposure to coaching.
Opportunity to get exposure to prospective clients by making yourself available for online coaching. Just click the button that says you are online and then prospective clients will know that you are available for a quick chat. Some clients may be reluctant to pick up the phone and call you, but they might feel comfortable whipping out a quick email query to coaches online. This will give you an opportunity to chat with a client and see if a sample coaching session would be a good idea.
The Coaching Directory allows you, as a registered coach, to create and manage your own profile and make as many changes as you want free of maintenance charges. It is very simple to use and keep up-to-date. Free links to your existing website if you have one. If you don't have your own website, The Coaching Directory is a great way to get some immediate exposure to potential coaching clients.
All registered coaches will agree to uphold the ICF coaching ethics and will be removed from the site without refund if they are found violating any of these standards. We reserve the right to do this up front. It is very important to uphold the integrity and standards of the profession. Any coach who is found to be making untruthful claims about their training and experience will be removed from the site immediately without refund or recourse. We will do random verification checks to ensure the integrity and quality of the site. This is a huge advantage to the public and to you, the coach as it raises your prestige.
If you have the above credentials and are willing to agree with our requirements for listing, then go right ahead and set up your registration with The Coaching Directory today! We welcome new qualified executive coaches, business coaches, life coaches, and professional coaches to join!
