From time to time, I like to read a website called "Clients From Hell". 

 

Although it's geared towards freelancers, it showcases real stories that should serve as cautionary tales for coaches (or any entrepreneurs). 

 

Some of the client stories are truly cringe-worthy! 

 

While you might not encounter the same level of horrible clients, if you're working with people who aren't the right fit for you then it makes business a lot more difficult. 

 

Spoller alert: 

 

When you're working with the right clients, it doesn't feel like work. 

When you're working with the wrong ones, it's a real slog ... it's like swimming upstream against the current, and you're left frustrated and burned out. 

 

That's not rocket science, so the question becomes:

 

How do you find clients who are a joy to work with? 

 

One way is to use "virtual stages", and Suzanne Evans is doing a training inside my Facebook group tomorrow at 1 pm EST to show you how. 

 

Suzanne is a master of selling from the stage (in-person and virtual), and you'll learn a lot during the hour or so watching it. 

 

No registration is needed but you'll have to be a member of The Coaching Jungle Facebook group to watch it. Here's the link:
