Do you find it difficult to get clients that are willing to pay you what you&#039;re worth for the advice and help you can offer? (...)]]></description>

<div id="attachment_710" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 293px"><strong><strong><a href="http://www.coacheswebmarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/youre_new_career.jpg"    class="thickbox noicon" rel="gallery-709" title="Your New Career Sign"><img class="size-full wp-image-710" title="Your New Career Sign" src="http://www.coacheswebmarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/youre_new_career.jpg" alt="Find you're coaching niche" width="283" height="424" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Find your coaching niche if you want more clients</p></div>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<h4><strong>Do you find it difficult to get clients that are willing to pay you what you&#039;re worth for the advice and help you can offer?</strong></h4>
<p>Then you need to read this article from <span style="text-decoration: underline;">start to finish</span>&#8230;</p>
<p>Recently I received a message from a coach wanting advice about how to develop her website to promote her coaching services. She wanted to know what I suggest she should do next.</p>
<p>So, what was my answer?</p>
<p><em>To forget about websites until you have chosen your niche!</em></p>
<p>You see, coaches who do not focus on helping <strong>specific people</strong> with <strong>specific problems</strong> will always struggle to find clients. Nobody wants coaching, they only want solutions to their problems.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">So the most important thing to do if you&#039;re a generic coach or life coach is to decide on your very own area of  specialism!<br />
</span><br />
You know you have a niche when you can answer the question &#039;who is the person&#039; and &#039;what is their problem&#039; I will help them solve? For example, helping mothers lose weight, or helping career women deal with stress at work. <strong>Niches are very specific.</strong></p>
<p>When you have a niche it is much easier to find your ideal client. Plus, when you become a &#039;specialist&#039; in one area, people are much more interested in having you help them. People always prefer specialists to generalists. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">They want to be reassured that this person is an expert in helping them with their specific problem.<br />
</span><br />
So if you don&#039;t yet know your niche, this is really where you need to make your first decision. Just what is your niche going to be? Only once you know your focus should you start learning about how to sell your services via websites etc.</p>
<h2><strong>How to find your coaching niche&#8230; and a special offer</strong></h2>
<p>The good news is that there is an opportunity coming very soon to help you take a huge shortcut in finding your niche <strong>and</strong> learning how to market your coaching services. It is the <a title="Coaches Superconference April 25-27" href="http://twurl.nl/riy7cb">Coaches and Consultants Top Gun Superconference on April 25/26/27 in London</a>.</p>
