Dear Coach Pony: How Do I Get Clients to Give Me Good Testimonials (Without Being Pushy?)

When you’re trying to demonstrate your credibility, what’s better
than having the glowing testimonials of happy clients talking
about how awesome you are?


Even better if they’re spontaneously given to you with permission
to share on your website and in your marketing materials, right?
But that’s not usually how it works.


So how do you get comfortable asking clients for
testimonials? 


And more than that, how do you get GREAT ones that will land you
more clients?


This season on the Coach Pony Podcast, dating coach Bobbi Palmer,
of Date Like a Grownup and I are here to help by answering your
burning questions about your coaching business, so you can get
more clients and get paid to coach! Also, we have a Bridgerton
audio theme this season, so enjoy!


Today, we’re digging into testimonials. Why humans love them, how
to ask for them without feeling like a sleaze, and why it really,
really isn’t too much to ask of your clients. We promise.
