How to Get Clients: New Pathways to Coaching Prosperity

Great coaching book.

Steve Chandler needs no introduction a leader in his field of coaching if you are on that particular journey. Invest in the best. Thanks Steve

I've read many of Steve Chandler's books including the Prosperous Coach. I think this book has helped me deepen my understanding of what he (and Rich Litvin) spoke to in that book and I'm feeling a lot more energised to take this forward in my own coaching practice

I've read a few of Steve's books. There are profound nuggets that make it worth ploughing throw this book and others, but oh my, waffle on. Why say it in a sentence when you can pad it out to a page. I wish he'd spent more time editing and less time writing or at least be reigned in by his editor (if he has one).

I found this book realistic and practical

This is such a gem of a book!

This book is a perfect reminder for me of what I've learned from my coach back in the day. Masteryourbeing.com

Steve Chandler's content never fails to inspire. There are so many take aways in this book that shift mindset. It's a Must Read!!

I first ‘met’ Steve Chandler approximately 20 years ago when a lot of what he teaches here was still in formative stages. Even then it was part of who Steve is. I had read 100 Ways to Motivate Yourself (released in 2001). Even then I knew I needed coaching and in the back of the book (perhaps another of his) was a way to contact him (email). So I did. I wanted to know how much it cost and he told me (when you read this book you’ll laugh at the irony of this). He recommended a telephone conversation but I told him I couldn’t afford him and I didn’t want to waste his time. He encouraged me. He told me that was fine, but recommended we talk anyway. So I sat in the parking lot of a client and had a telephone conversation of 90+ minutes. This blew me away. Even then he was coaching and encouraging! Now that I am formally beginning my own journey as a professional coach Steve Chandler (obviously) holds a special place in my heart and mind. And this book? In my mind this is pure gold. It resonates with who/what I am. It speaks to me as to how I want to be treated and respected by others and to how I approach virtually every interpersonal interaction. Life is relationships. I have been taught else where ‘how’ to sell, that I should always be thinking ‘sell, sell, sell’, how to…. If you are a coach you may well know. I have coached people for decades but in setting where and when my role was very different. I love helping and serving people and have done so voluntarily all this time. You may relate to this. But the jump to doing so professionally has been…awkward. I almost typed terrifying but it’s not, it’s just uncomfortable. And, in my case, the discomfort has been all about the sales part. But being reimbursed for services rendered? Developing relationships and getting people comfortable with the idea of being coached, etc. fits and I have already put it into motion. And it works. And it works well. People come in with reasonable expectations because the actual coaching has already begun. Wordy review. I would apologize but I want you to know where all this comes from. It comes from my heart. If your dream is to be a coach or a better coach, you’ll understand.

This book highlights the importance of connecting with people and thankfully it steers clear of cliched business speak!

What a great book! Coaching is so much about who you are along with services to the clients. Well laid out and inspiring to read.
