For business coaches, the foundation of growth isn’t just a strong personal brand. It’s access to the right people, in the right environments, at the right time. Traditional networking often feels like a grind: weekly meetings, rigid formats, forced referrals, and redundant elevator pitches. But there’s a smarter, more sustainable way to grow your coaching practice.
Five Ways to Use Smarter Networking to Increase Your Client Base
1. Focus on Curated, Professional, Monthly Groups
Instead of attending weekly meetings that lack depth or direction, business coaches benefit from being part of monthly mastermind-style groups. Seek out networking environments with like-minded business owners and professionals who align with your client profile, such as small business owners, service providers, or emerging leaders. These meetings bring together individuals who are actively looking to grow. A monthly cadence avoids burnout and creates anticipation and intention for each gathering.
