Life Coach Business Building School with Debbie Shadid EP 316 - How To Get Coaching Clients By Speaking in 2026
Speaking at a virtual summit is one of the fastest ways to get coaching clients as a new coach. This is exactly what happened at the 2026 Design Live Thrive Summit, and we are pulling back the curtain to show you how it works.
If you missed the summit, you can still catch the replay. Go to https://www.designlivethrive.com and get access.
In this post-summit roundtable, Debbie Shadid and co-host Thais Glenn sit down with the Day Two speakers to celebrate real results from real coaches who showed up, gave their talk, and started getting clients the same day. We are talking opt-ins, booked calls, and new clients from women who were brand new to putting themselves out there.
We cover:
- How new coaches got 20+ opt-ins and booked their first client calls within hours of speaking
- Why speaking at a summit works faster than social media for getting coaching clients
- What it looks like to go from unknown coach to trusted expert in one presentation
- How to get your marketing message right so the right clients actually find you
- Why done is better than perfect when you are building a coaching business
