    The layout of your website and how it is designed will be critical for your success as a coach.

    Here are some quick tips of how to design your site to ensure that it is the best it can be:

    A Good Looking Site Is Not Good Enough

    It is all well and good having a flashy website but your main aim of the site is to convert browsers into clients.

    Keep gizmos to the bare minimum and when designing your site put yourself in your ideal clients shoes and ask yourself:

    "What would I want to see on this site?

    "What colours?"

    "Pictures? personal pictures or business?"

    Get this type of thing wrong and it will cost you dearly as you only get 5 seconds to grab the visitors attention

    Attention Grabbing Headline

    What is the main benefit of your service?

    What can you offer that other coaches do not?

    What problems can you solve for the client?

    A headline based upon some of these factors will make sure that the visitors attention is grabbed and that they will be curious to find out more.

    Capture The Visitors Email Address

    Do this by setting up an auto-responder and offering a newsletter, report or ecourse that the visitor can download right away.

    Then follow up with the prospect on a continual basis

    Enquiry Forms

    Make sure you have got enquiry forms on EVERY PAGE of your website.

    Here is an example of what I mean: http://www.lifecoachwebsolutions.com/help.htm

    On this form anyone can enter their email address and their name and what they want.

    Getting clients is a contact sport. When they are looking at your page content they may have questions on their mind or they may be ready to buy - make it easy for them to contact you without having to go and hunt for your contact details.

    Easy Navigation

    Make sure that your site structure is such so that it is easy for the prospect to find what they need quickly and effectively.

    Before you design your site sit down and map out what pages link to which so that your site has continuity and a logical flow.

    Contracts That Work - Limitations of Liability
    Limitations of Liability Thomas J. Hall, JD It’s a provision found in almost every commercial contract: “Vendor shall be liable only for direct damages, in an amount not to exceed $X. In no event will vendor be liable for indirect, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages or for lost profits.” Although the actual words may vary, the meaning is the same: • The most vendor will pay is $X; • For certain claims, vendor has NO liability. Such provisions raise a number of issues: • They are unfair. Vendor’s liab

    Who Hates Boring Meetings?
    I think about communication when things go wrong and often forget about sharing what is happening in business if I am on a good road. The problem is that communication within the organization should be constant and not treated as an inconvenience. I am more than guilty when it comes to staff meetings and I would rather duck out than face long boring talks. I tune out and think about my day rather than thinking about the company in general. By doing this, I was finding myself out of the loop so to speak and not really knowing the underpinnings of

    Questionable Collection Ethics Back In The News!
    There's been a lot of bad press lately pertaining to the ethics of debt collectors. As the owner of a collection agency, I'd like to take this opportunity to respond to such allegations. As a general rule, businesses contract with collection agencies in an effort to resolve recovery issues due to extended lines of credit that have failed to be honored.When not pursued diligently, past due accounts are among the leading contributors to serious cash flow issues that prevent businesses from paying their own bills, or forcing them to go out o

    E-Currency Exchange Program Reviewed
    The truth is that it is possible and some of the richest people you will ever meet make the majority of their money passively and without working as hard as you may be. You see society teaches us that you must work hard to make money and this is what keeps 99% of people working their whole lifetime without much to show for it.Well I'm here to tell you that making money on autopilot is possible. The e-currency exchange business is the way I do it and it's the way I recommend to anyone, even my friends and family. It's an amazing opportu

    A Picture Is A Must

    Visitors are skeptical creatures!!!

    You need to build up their trust and they need to get to know you well before they send you the money!!

    Therefore, having a picture of yourself on your site is an absolute MUST.

    Contact Details

    On this page you should have the following:

    - Your full name

    - Your full address

    - Telephone number

    - Email address

    - Enquiry form

    Try to avoid PO BOX numbers if you can as these are synomonous with scams on the internet.

    In Summary:

    With a lot of thought and planning you too can produce a winning website that will make a real difference to your business.

    Having a poorly designed website is actually worse than not having one at all - so be careful when designing your site because your credibility and your reputation is at stake.

    My advice to you is to get someone who knows what they are talking about to complete it for you. It will pay off believe me and this will free you up to do what you like doing the most - coaching!
