Dear friend,
Are you curious or intrigued about the profession of coaching?
Imagine… creating the lifestyle you desire …being your own boss
…working from home or anywhere in the world accessible by phone …and
helping others get what they want in their lives. Does this sound
fulfilling?
These are just a few of the reasons that coaching is one of the world's
fastest growing professions with an estimated 30,000+ coaches
worldwide. Career and life coaching for Baby Boomers was included as one of the
27 hottest ideas for 2007at Entrepreneur.com.
This is one of the most frequent questions asked by prospective coaches. Two separate surveys conducted in 2003 revealed that 9% of coaches were earning $100,000 or more per year. Some coaches make a six-figure income from coaching and related products and services while others coach on a part-time basis to supplement their income.

To find out, begin by taking the time to research the profession. Create a list of questions that you have about coaching. Find out what coaches do. Check out the various coach training schools. These are just some of the things that can help you determine whether coaching is a fit for you before starting a business and investing in a coach training program. Training can cost anywhere from $1500 to $10,000+ US for an accredited program.
"The 'How to become a coach' ebook package is loaded with practical
and down-to-earth information about the coaching profession. Having
done some research myself before finding this ebook, I know this
material will save you a lot of time! |
Almost twelve years ago I was where you are
now. I was intrigued by coaching and wondering if it was right for me.
I had heard about the profession four years earlier and had visited the
Coach U site but didn't join. In early 2000 I heard that the Coaches
Training Institute was conducting a training course in town. I called a
couple of coaches I had met at a local ICF chapter meeting and asked
about the coach training program they had taken. I decided to take the
CTI training as it was in-person (and to me a scarier choice than a
teleclass).
I absolutely loved the environment and enjoyed coaching my fellow
classmates. Soon after the first course Thomas Leonard of Coach U came
to town on his Millenium Tour. He gave one flashy, content-filled
presentation. I was beginning to doubt my choice of training schools...
and I wasn't the only one! I completed the CTI curriculum but didn't
sign-up for the certification program. Something felt off.
I began coaching clients and still felt that something was off. Could
it be that one-to-one coaching didn't fit my personality type? Was I
just not ready? Could this happen to other people? And that is why I
wrote this ebook.
I have spent hundreds of hours researching the profession of coaching
since 2001. The amount of information was almost overwhelming! And that
was a decade ago. It's only gotten worse.
I’ll share with you the answers I found as well as the places that you
can find answers to your most pressing questions. I can help you find
the answers you're looking for in a fraction of the time you could find
them on your own. Think about the time you’ll save
by having the How to Become a Coach ebook at your fingertips.
The amount of information available about
coaching is expanding rapidly. Let’s take a look at coach training.
Currently there are over 400 organizations (and that's a conservative estimate) offering coach
training programs. Just over 200 of these coach training programs are
accredited by the main coaching associations - and that's just counting programs with at least 100 hours of training! It could take hours upon hours to research these programs.
The How To Become a Coach ebook outlines the difference between
accredited and non-accredited programs, shows you where to find these
coach training programs, and how to choose the best training program
for you.
Many of the free ‘Question and Answer’ or ‘Introduction to Coaching’
teleclasses available are slanted in favour of a particular training
program. The How To Become a Coach ebook is completely
objective. We are not affiliated with any coach training
organizations or coaching association. Since we have no agenda, this
allows you to choose the best program for you.
I created this guide so prospective coaches
could:
"As one of the
first Master Certified Coaches in Canada I have many people contact me
and ask me questions about the coaching profession.
Sue's ebook provides the answers to many of those
questions. I recommend anyone exploring the
profession and deciding whether to become a coach to purchase Sue's
ebook for their resource library. I wish I
had a book like this when I first became involved in the coaching
profession. It would have saved me a lot of
time." |
Still Not Convinced?

The How To Become a Coach ebook is
a comprehensive 90-page overview (74 pages if you exclude the Table of Contents, appendices, bio
and cited sources) of the profession and business of coaching. In addition
to the information presented many of the sections have a set of suggested
exercises included in a separate 33-page Workbook so that you can take
action and find the answers you need for each topic.
Plus there is an online resource section with links to coaching associations, coach training programs, and business resources in the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia.
You also get the Coaching Associations at a Glance report, which gives you an overview of the top dozen coaching associations. This comes in handy during the Coach Training and Certification chapters of the eBook.
Are you wondering if the information is old and dated? The ebook has
been updated eight times since June 2001. The latest revision was
released in September 2013.
