Notes From the New World Do You REALLY Need a Business Coach? An Honest Discussion with Serine Goodmond
178: Are you someone who regrets investing in a business coach, so much so that it keeps you up at night, and you can’t believe what you paid for? Are you tired of spending your life savings and not getting the results you want for your biz? Is it really on you, or is it because the business coaching industry has a few cracks that need to be sealed, like yesterday?
On this week’s episode, Chelsea sits down with Serine Goodmond to discuss:
- “The Big Boom” in the business coaching industry - where did this demand even come from?
- Marketing your dollar signs - this is worsening capitalism in the business coaching industry
- Issues with business coaches - and the shocking results from Chelsea’s Instagram poll (given by business owners who hired business coaches themselves!)
- Personal experiences - what worked out and didn’t. Serine and Chelsea don’t hold back.
- Spotting red flags - how to use discernment to avoid being straight up scammed
- How clients also play a part in their expectations falling short, and how to speak up for what they really need and want
“We're in this American culture where we want things to be fixed instantaneously, you then have all these people who wanna work for themselves tomorrow and they need someone that's gonna help them get there yesterday…I think what we're seeing if we zoom out is that people really need to divest from capitalism as the baseline business structure. There's a huge over emphasis on money and income, and not the actual service that we're providing to our clients.” - Serine Goodmond
