How to Create A Group Coaching Program
By: Melissa Lin
Welcome back to The Fierce Business Podcast, where we provide valuable insights and advice on growing and scaling your business. Today, we're diving deeper into the topic of creating a group coaching program and discussing the steps to make it successful.
In our previous episodes, we discussed the benefits of running a group coaching program, including the ability to support more people, provide an affordable option, and create a sense of community and support for your clients. Now, let's talk about how you can create a program that meets the needs of your clients and helps them achieve their goals.
Step One:
The first step is to consider where a group coaching program could fit into your current product offerings. Look at your current offerings and identify where a group coaching program could fit. Typically, it falls somewhere between low-ticket and high-ticket programs. Once you've identified where it could fit, map out the transformation you want your clients to achieve and the structure of your program.
When mapping out the transformation, consider the outcomes you want your clients to achieve. What do they need to learn? What skills do they need to develop? What mindset shifts do they need to make? Once you have a clear understanding of the transformation, you can begin to structure your program.
Group Coaching Format:
Consider the format of your group coaching calls, the support between calls, and where you want to host the program. You may also want to prequalify leads and set expectations and boundaries for yourself and your clients. It's important to choose a format that serves both you and your clients and helps them achieve their goals. Additionally, consider the support between calls. Will you be available to clients every day, or only on certain days and at certain times? Make sure to set clear expectations and boundaries for yourself and your clients.
Rolling Enrollment or not:
When launching your program, it's important to decide whether you want everyone to start on the same day or have rolling enrollment. Rolling enrollment allows people to join the program at any time, while starting everyone on the same day can create a sense of community and camaraderie. It's important to consider the platform you want to use, like Slack, Facebook groups, or Voxer. Choose a platform that's easy to use and provides the support you need to run the program successfully.
Another important aspect of running a group coaching program is to set goals and metrics for success. This will help you track progress and ensure your clients are getting the most out of the program. Consider progress reports, metrics collected in the back end, or even feedback from clients to determine program success. By setting goals and metrics, you can ensure your program is effective and provides value to your clients.
As you create your program, remember to keep your clients' needs and goals at the forefront, and tailor your program to meet those needs. This will ensure your clients are getting the most out of the program and achieving the outcomes they desire.
In conclusion, group coaching programs can be a great addition to your product suite. By following these steps, you can create a successful program that supports both you and your clients. As you create your program, remember to always keep your clients' needs and goals in mind, and make sure that your program is tailored to meet those needs.
