- 4:48Let's
- 4:48start
- 4:48with
- 4:49this.
- 4:49People
- 4:49don't
- 4:50buy
- 4:50coaching.
- 4:50They
- 4:51buy
- 4:51connection
- 4:52with
- 4:52you
- 4:52and
- 4:53the
- 4:53outcome
- 4:54that
- 4:54they
- 4:54want.
- 4:55Your
- 4:56ideal
- 4:56client
- 4:56isn't
- 4:57just
- 4:57looking
- 4:57for
- 4:58another
- 4:58coach.
- 4:58They
- 4:59are
- 4:59searching
- 5:00for
- 5:00someone
- 5:00who
- 5:00absolutely
- 5:01gets
- 5:02them.
- 5:02Someone
- 5:03usually
- 5:03who
- 5:03has
- 5:04walked
- 5:04a
- 5:04similar
- 5:05path,
- 5:05overcome
- 5:06similar

- 5:12your
- 5:12most
- 5:12powerful
- 5:13marketing
- 5:14tool.
- 5:15So
- 5:15take
- 5:15a
- 5:16moment
- 5:16to
- 5:16think
- 5:17now.
- 5:17Why
- 5:18are
- 5:18you
- 5:19a
- 5:19coach
- 5:21and
- 5:21what
- 5:22led
- 5:22you
- 5:22here?
- 5:24There's
- 5:25usually
- 5:25a
- 5:25reason
- 5:26that
- 5:26you
- 5:26are
- 5:26passionate
- 5:27about
- 5:27what
- 5:27you
- 5:27do
- 5:28and
- 5:28that
- 5:29reason
- 5:29is
- 5:29what
- 5:30makes
- 5:30you
- 5:30different.
- 5:31It
- 5:31is
- 5:31your
- 5:32edge.
- 5:33And
- 5:34like
- 5:34I've
- 5:34mentioned,
- 5:35in
- 5:35a
- 5:36world
- 5:36where
- 5:36coaching
- 5:37is
- 5:37becoming
- 5:37more
- 5:38competitive
- 5:38by
- 5:39the
- 5:39day
- 5:39because
- 5:40people
- 5:40are
- 5:41seeing
- 5:41the
- 5:41impact
- 5:42of
- 5:42creating
- 5:43an
- 5:43online
- 5:43business,
- 5:44having
- 5:44that
- 5:45edge
- 5:45isn't
- 5:45useful.
- 5:46It's
- 5:46essential
- 5:48if
- 5:48you
- 5:48are
- 5:49fairly
- 5:49early
- 5:49in
- 5:49your
- 5:50journey.
- 5:50You
- 5:50might
- 5:51not
- 5:51realize
- 5:51this
- 5:52yet.
- 5:52I
- 5:52had
- 5:53a
- 5:53discovery
- 5:53call
- 5:53with
- 5:54someone
- 5:54last
- 5:54week
- 5:55who
- 5:56was
- 5:56too
- 5:57early
- 5:57in
- 5:57their
- 5:58coaching
- 5:58journey,
- 5:59probably
- 6:00to
- 6:00work
- 6:00with
- 6:01me,
- 6:01because
- 6:02she
- 6:02thought
- 6:03that
- 6:03she
- 6:04is
- 6:04going
- 6:04to
- 6:04be
- 6:04at
- 6:05six
- 6:05figures
- 6:06in
- 6:07six
- 6:07months.
- 6:08And
- 6:09anyone
- 6:09who's
- 6:09been
- 6:09around
- 6:10a
- 6:10little
- 6:10bit
- 6:10longer
- 6:11than
- 6:11that
- 6:11will
- 6:12know
- 6:12that
- 6:12there
- 6:12is
- 6:12a
- 6:13lot
- 6:13to
- 6:13build,
- 6:14especially
- 6:14when
- 6:14you
- 6:15first
- 6:15start
- 6:15your
- 6:15business.
- 6:16So
- 6:16therefore
- 6:17it's
- 6:18kind
- 6:18of
- 6:18unusual
- 6:19to
- 6:19gain
- 6:20that
- 6:20sort
- 6:20of
- 6:20income
- 6:21that
- 6:22quickly.
- 6:22Yes,
- 6:23it's
- 6:23possible
- 6:24and
- 6:24I
- 6:24assured
- 6:25her
- 6:25it's
- 6:25possible.
- 6:26But
- 6:27mostly
- 6:27if
- 6:28you
- 6:28are
- 6:28being
- 6:28realistic,
- 6:29which
- 6:29is
- 6:30a
- 6:30really
- 6:30boring
- 6:30word
- 6:31I
- 6:31appreciate
- 6:31and
- 6:32I
- 6:32do
- 6:32think
- 6:32you
- 6:32should
- 6:33reach
- 6:33for
- 6:33the
- 6:33stars.
- 6:34But
- 6:35I
- 6:35never
- 6:35want
- 6:35to
- 6:36sell
- 6:36someone
- 6:36the
