What did you think about the "Client Getting Emails" from this page?
Did you try it yet? Did you send it? Did people reply and request a session with you? Did you sign up some new clients? If so, I'd love to hear about it. Make a comment below.
Are you afraid to try it? Do you think it isn't going to work? Is there something keeping you from moving forward? Let me know and I'll see if there's anything I can do to help.
Do you have any additional insights, ideas, or suggestions that you think will help everyone? If so, post them below.
Thanks for sharing!

PS: Remember, people need our help. Let's get people coached!
PPS: I added some new tools to the "Client Getting Emails" page.
Feel free to share your comments or questions about those here too.
Thanks Christian! This rocks. Actually I used a swipe file of yours a year ago that a friend got from you. It was titled 'red hot...(um, something or other) any way - I used it and it not only got me several new clients but actually paid for me and my wife to move from D.C. to California!
ReplyDeleteThis is very timely to see this again. I was just talking to my wife and she wants to get a few more clients now as I am slowing down on my coaching in order to create info products!
To anyone reading this - USE this guys free swipe files! They work.

Hi Christian,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the email templates. The only confusion is the bottom of each email says it is copywrite protected and we cannot use it without email permission...I am assuming we have permission since you sent it to us? Sounds crazy, but since it was on there I want to be sure it is ok to use verbatim.
Thanks again for these...looking forward to using them!

Hey CA,
ReplyDeleteThey are totally FREE to use as is to send out to your list and get clients. The copyright is there to protect me from people that want to take all of the "client getting emails" put them up on their own website and give them away to people like I'm doing.
Does that make sense?
Cheers!
CM
Wow Christian! Thank you so much for sharing these!
ReplyDeleteI will definitely come back to let you know how well they worked for me!
Christian: Thank you SO much for the free emails. I was just about to launch a Job Search Strategy Mastermind Group and your Career Coach email was invaluable. I'm fairly new to the biz so I have a smaller email list (for now!) and with your email I have at least 15 people signed-up for free sessions. I'm so excited. BTW - for others reading this: I took Christian's advice and used 99.5% of the email 'as is'. I didn't mess with the forumala... this makes it way easier to just get out there. Plus, it WORKED! I can't wait to serve these people. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteHey, Christian,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great call, it gave me ideas to tweak & improve a Professional Development call that I've been asked to speak on. I'm a pretty positive person and the advice of many to 'push the pain button' and keep pushing it didn't resonate with me. I used to resist pushing it at all. I've come to realize that it needs to be written in a way that resonates with the target market, and the way the pain button is pushed can be in an empathetic, loving, this-is-how-it-really-is, understanding way that feel authentic to both them and me.
Hey, Christian. First, a huge thanks for the great value you share in your communications. I look forward to the awesome ideas and support that I receive from your emails and posts.
ReplyDeleteI've been noticing that I have some fear about sending the emails. I think about doing it, but then I think - "if a bunch of folks respond, I am not sure yet that I can give a great free session....should I wait until I am more skilled at this so I don't waste the opportunity to talk to these people?" I don't have your older version of FSTS and don't have cash for the new one, so I think my "saboteur" is trying to hold me back and get me feeling like I will mess this up.
I'll keep working to master my psychology on this one...Thanks again!
Free Sessions That Sell 5.0 is coming out on November 17th so you don't need to wait long. AND, I'll be letting people try it out for 30 days for FREE, so even if you can't afford it now, by the time you have to make a payment, you should have signed up a few (or a lot of) new clients just during the free trial month.
ReplyDeleteMy advice at this point is to work through your fear (I'll help you with this on the "Make it Safe to Spend" webinar happening on 11/10) and then let your intuition guide to either wait for FSTS 5.0 to land on your doorstep or to go for it now.
Thank you! It is great! I am sure we should help people as you did. Great model, I will follow! "Let's get people coached!"
ReplyDeleteHi Christian,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your generous sharing of pre-written client-getting emails. I will forward you email to several other coaches & consultants I know who might benefit from your wisdom. Many Blessings to you.
All the best,

Dear Christian
ReplyDeleteThank you for your free coaches with clieunts email education system. I think that it is absolutely fantastic and am delighted that Hannah passed it on to me. I am going to use three of the emails, the career one, the leader/executive one and the generalistic one.
So far, this has been the most helpful coaching advice I have received.

Although I've just found just recently you... I love your work. Wow what an education. I'm learning so much from your freebies I can't imagine what's in the paid system. I'm trying very hard to get a few clients now so I can pay for your system ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for everything you do for the coaching community, the latest being this incredible set of pre-written emails for attracting potential clients. You are amazing and proof that tremendous success can come with having integrity and being extremely generous!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your generosity.
ReplyDeleteI want to thank you for sending such inspiring, original and up to date emails.
ReplyDeleteAs I am in the process of starting my life coach business, I have increased my practical knowledge just by reading your tips and secrets.

Thanks so much for the pre-written emails offer!
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous, Christian! Thanks you sooooooooo much! I really appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteTo echo all of the others - thank you, thank you for an awesome webinar last night and for all of your great work. You've inspired me and got me feeling confident that I can help others.
ReplyDeleteI am going to have ten minute "sample coaching" sessions with women at an event this weekend - I'd like to offer them something useful and then ask if they want to schedule a free session for another time. Thoughts about whether making the free session offer would work in that setting or how to tweak?
Thank you! Blessings to you, your wife and baby on the way!
I also appreciate your generosity.
ReplyDeleteI would like to know how people are getting results?
Hey Jen,
ReplyDeleteYES! I'm sure it will work great. Sign all up for Free Sessions and then sign them all up for ongoing coaching!

C,
ReplyDeleteDonna Payne, The Web Coach here. My friend Linda Puig sent me to your site and I impulsively downloaded your "Client Getting Email" and sent it out immediately, which is something I NEVER do.
Well let me tell you... the response was AMAZING!
I decided to give 30-minute free "business breakthrough coaching" the very next week.
I sent the message on Friday 11/6, and a reminder on Sunday 11/8 to my herd of 1500 peeps. (+social media=8k)
Between monday and friday I had 13 appointments set and confirmed!
Of those, 4 are interested in websites, 3 are joining my paid mastermind, and 2 I'm going to coach pro-bono.
Dude, you rock! Thanks for what you do.

Hey, Christian. The event where I have ten minute sessions with women is tomorrow. I'm going to invite them to sign up for a special free session - will let you know how it goes!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Jen
Hey Christian,
ReplyDeleteI get a LOT of emails from marketing coaches and am skeptical of most. It sometimes seems like the only way coaches are making money is to sell ideas to other coaches. However, yesterday I got your email offering free email scripts. I thought, it's really free, so why not? I've done a fair amount of email marketing (ezine, announcements, etc) for our counseling and coaching practice with decent but not overwhelming results. So, I copied, personalized and pasted your relationship coaching email and sent it out to about 1500 people I regularly correspond with. Within 5 minutes of the first round of 700 going out, I got a phone call and referral from a co-worker. Within the last 24 hours, I've gotten 4 referrals and scheduled 3 coaching appointments. Thanks for this free offer! It really worked this time. Be blessed today!
t.p.
Thank you for all the wealth of information that you provide to us! Like Jen, I find in myself a fear of sending these emails out (which is probably why I don't have an email list yet...)But after listening to the replay of "Making it Safe to Spend," I would like to move forward with the email campaign. Any tips on how to do that without having an email list to send it to?
ReplyDeleteI sent the email last night and have a couple of responses already. This should be fun especially after the next two rounds of this.
ReplyDeleteRgds,
roger
Just wanted to report back that I didn't end up asking folks to sign up for the free session at the women's event I went to - the vibe didn't seem right. But, I just practiced a free session based on the "cheat sheet" with a friend who's a coach, and she was blown away. She said when she gets her first client, she's going to hire me!
ReplyDeleteThanks again...big blessings!
Hi Christian,
ReplyDeleteI listened to your call today with Sharla Jacobs, i am part of the rejuvenate tribe. I have to say, your information has been blowing me away and your step by step detail with even the "free" info has been stellar.
I am an acupuncturist starting a coaching practice to women 35-55 in the "anti aging" market. I really want to move quickly into group coaching and or as Sharla calls it coaching gym. My first product I was planning is a teleseminar series. I was planning on doing a free preview call and anyone on the preview call offering a free "strategy" session who signs up for tele-seminar. At the end of the tele-seminar, I was planning on offering the group coaching.
How do you see these emails working for me, for that matter how about your program. Even though I have been treating patients for over 7 years (which by the way entails tons of coaching, I don't have "formal" coaching training so I could use advice as to how to structure group style coaching.
Wow, I know this comment is long winded, but these are the questions I have for you.
I look forward to your response and for taking action. I really want to reach out to as many fabulous women as possible.
Warm regards,

I love your emails and all your helpful information but the one thing I have yet to understand is - how do I build this miraculous list so that I can send it to people? I am tired of being bombarded with 'build your list quickly by sending your email to...' (so that I get added to their lists).
ReplyDeleteI got a few results after the first email and burnt those contacts by botching the FSTS (I should have waited till the program arrived). I then sent the second email "did you see this..." email and got a few more. From those I closed one client.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you do when the prospect doesn't have a very good vision for their business. also, those same prospects couldn't think of any challenges. I tried probing and asking what others told me that they experienced, however they didn't think they had those problems.
finally, I've come to the conclusion that my database is made up of a lot of people who are not in my target market. I almost need to scrap my current database and find a program to build my database from scratch.
Hey Christian,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for providing those free e-mail templates to send out! I have a small list of people (97) that signed up for my free e-book and newsletter (I help people deal with negative emotions such as anxiety and fear), so I knew I had a chance of getting people to sign up for a free session.
The first time I sent your e-mail out, which was last year somewhere, I think I had one response in total and the guy had no interest in doing the session.
Oops!
Anyway, this week I decided to send out your e-mail (the template for coaches without a niche), and I immediately had 3 people responding to it...within 24 hours! One of them signed up right away and the other two were reluctant to fill in their personal details in the e-mail and were still doubting if they were going to do a session with me.
So two days later I decided to send out the follow up e-mail ("Did you see this?") and I adjusted the template a little bit by saying they could sign up for a session by using my TimeDriver online agenda instead of answering the questions in the e-mail. I also said that I only had 10 spots available, as they could see in my TimeDriver agenda online, so they would have to be fast!
Guess what happened? 2 minutes after sending out the e-mail to my 97 people, 1 signed up immediately. One hour later, I got another one to sign up. So now I have 3 free sessions booked after 3 days of using your email templates!
You ROCK, Christian! Thank you for being honest in helping others. I've seen so many "coaches" out there helping other coaches that have no clue when it comes down to practical results...but you know your stuff.
Cheers,
Tom.
