Step 7 - Network online and off (this post)
NETWORK ONLINE AND OFF
Being more on the introvert side of things, networking was not my preferred method of finding clients, but I have discovered some key secrets behind making it work both online and off.
How are you tracking with the ‘10 Steps To Attracting Dream Clients To Your Health Coaching Business In 5 Weeks (Or Less!)’ series? I’ve heard some wonderful stories this week – I just had to share a couple!
I joined a ...Network FB group page very late last night .. decided to make myself visible and share a photo of myself and a little about my business as well as some fun facts about me. Since then I've received 2 personal Facebook messages of people wanting to work with me and 2 bookings for Discovery Sessions...

Step 7 is all about making connections – authentic and genuine connections are one of the most effective ways to pick up clients.
In Step 6, I encouraged you to host a party to build community, but of course, it is always nice to head to a party as a guest!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – people buy from people they know, like and trust.
And this comes from meeting you, getting to know you!
So it makes sense that getting to know someone before ‘selling’ to them will always result in a more authentic relationship.
The good news is that there’s usually plenty of extra networking events happening, so don your Jimmy Choos and head out of the house with those business cards now!
There are many ways to network both online and off which can be tailored to your own personal preferences and I’ve pulled together my favourites below:
Seven places to network:
1. Your local business group
2. Women in business meetups
3. Facebook health groups (come on over to our very own Healthy Wealthy Society for a great community!)
4. Mothers groups & playgroups
5. Outdoor bootcamps
6. Your favourite team sport
7. You local community garden group

I shared details of my fermented foods workshop on Instagram and Facebook and was inundated with enquiries. I booked 19 people for the workshop and had to borrow several chairs to meet the demand!
