Corporate Coach Jodi Flynn – How I Got My First Paying Client

 


How did Jodi Flynn land her first paid coaching client?
Networking, networking, networking.


 


This can apply to any business but especially when you’re
coaching in the corporate executive realm, it's all about
relationships.


 


Getting clients is all about who you know and being brave enough
to put yourself out there.


 


You have to get in front of potential clients, get to know them,
and let them know what you can offer.


 


All this season we have been chatting with experienced 6 and
7-figure coaches from different niches about how they got that
very first client and what they might do differently today.


 


In this episode, we are continuing our series by peering into the
world of corporate coaching with the Founder of Women Taking the
Lead, Jodi Flynn.


 


For over a decade, women leaders have been hiring Jodi to develop
the skills needed to thrive in Senior Leadership.


 


She is the host of the critically acclaimed Women Taking the Lead
podcast, and an Amazon bestselling author with her book,
Accomplished: How to Go from Dreaming to Doing. She is the
President of the board for The Maine Women’s Conference and has
been featured in Entrepreneur and Forbes Magazine.


 


Jodi is more than a decade into her career as a corporate coach
and is still loving it!


 


And funny enough, after all these years of experience, she is
still getting her clients the same way she got that very first
paying client–networking, networking, networking…
