    👉 Grab my Free Guide: How to Write Compelling StoryBrand Copy in 5 Minutes Flat: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resourcesPretty websites don’t pay the bills. Clear websites do. Let me show the difference.I see this heartbreaking pattern all the time: brilliant coaches and consultants who cringe when they send prospects to their websites. These are amazing professionals getting incredible results for their clients, but their website makes them look like they just started yesterday. Meanwhile, others with the same skills are booking calls left and right.The difference isn't fancy design or expensive photo shoots. It's whether your website makes it crystal clear why someone should pick you over the 50 other coaches they just looked at. If it doesn't, you're literally sending people away to find someone who can explain their value better.I recently worked with a brilliant executive coach who had 15 years of corporate experience and an MBA from Wharton. She was getting amazing results but only one inquiry per month because her website was completely generic. After spending just two hours rewriting her homepage to make it clear exactly who she helps and how she's different, she was fully booked with a waiting list within six weeks.What You'll Learn:✅ The 5 website mistakes that make you look like every other coach (and how to fix them)✅ Why "helping leaders reach their potential" is sabotaging your success✅ The simple headline test that reveals if your website is working against youYour website's job isn't to impress people with how smart you are—it's to make it completely obvious that you're the right person to solve their problem. When someone lands on your site, they should immediately think, "This person gets me." Ready to transform your website from a source of embarrassment into your most powerful sales tool?

After 23 years in marketing, I've discovered that the most successful entrepreneurs don't just have beautiful websites - they have websites that tell compelling stories where their clients are the hero.In this episode, I'm sharing my conversation with Rich Brooks on the Agents of Change podcast, where we break down the exact framework I use to help my clients transform their websites into 24/7 sales machines. Your signature story isn't about you - it's about making your potential clients feel understood, valued, and confident that you're the guide who can solve their problem.The truth is, most business owners struggle with their messaging because they're making themselves the hero of their own story. But when you shift into the guide role and follow the proven story structure that every movie and book uses, everything changes. One of my clients went from closing 20% of her sales calls to 95% simply by getting clear on her signature story and her role as the guide.WHAT YOU’LL LEARN✅ Why being the hero of your own story actually kicks potential clients out of your narrative (and how to become the strongest character instead)✅ The "accordion method" for stretching and shrinking your signature story to work across every marketing channel without feeling redundant✅ The exact six story components that transform confused website visitors into eager clients who can't wait to work with youReady to stop living and dying by referrals?

    Ep. 31 | From Corporate Leader to Confident Coach: Breaking Free with Candy Motzek
    2025/06/24
    👉 Grab my Free Guide: How to Write Compelling StoryBrand Copy in 5 Minutes Flat: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resourcesWhat if the "security" you're clinging to is actually the riskiest path you could take? I sat down with business and mindset coach Candy Motzek to explore why talented professionals stay trapped in corporate roles—and how to make the leap into coaching without going broke.Here's the reality check: Your corporate job isn't as secure as you think. Downsizing happens to star players too—and having a side coaching business creates real financial security, not just passion fulfillment.Candy helped one corporate leader transition from managing KPIs to coaching at a major university. But here's where most coaches get stuck: You can be amazing at coaching and still be broke. The skills that make you brilliant at transformation don't automatically equal business success.Many fabulous coaches have hardly any clients—and we're fixing that problem today.✅ Why your corporate job might be riskier than starting your own business (and how a side coaching practice creates real security)✅ The real reason people aren't buying your coaching (hint: it's probably not your qualifications)✅ How "buffering" keeps you stuck in busy work instead of income-generating activities (and what to do instead)The bottom line: When you're doing work that energizes instead of drains you, everything changes. You stop buffering with extra shopping trips and spa visits because you're not constantly rewarding yourself for surviving tough days. The freedom and fulfillment on the other side of that leap is worth every moment of uncertainty.Ready to stop playing it safe and start building the coaching business you've been dreaming about? This episode gives you the roadmap to make it happen without the overwhelm.More About CandyBusiness coach and trusted mentor for aspiring coaches.

    👉 Grab my Free Guide: How to Write Compelling StoryBrand Copy in 5 Minutes Flat: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resourcesIf your website confuses people, you’re losing money—here’s how to fix it.If potential clients can't understand how you help them within five seconds of landing on your homepage, you're losing dream clients every single day—and you might not even realize it's happening.I've seen this pattern countless times with brilliant coaches and consultants who have all the right credentials but struggle to book discovery calls. The problem isn't their expertise—it's their messaging. When your website copy is unclear, confusing, or speaks in transformation language that sounds deep but lands flat, you're attracting bargain hunters instead of dream clients who value your expertise.In this episode, I'm breaking down the four biggest messaging mistakes that keep coaches and service providers stuck in the feast-or-famine cycle, plus my proven framework for turning your website into a client-attraction machine.WHAT YOU’LL LEARN✅ The real reason your certifications and testimonials aren't converting visitors into discovery calls (hint: your ideal clients aren't looking for credentials—they're looking for someone who gets them)✅ Why transformation language like "step into your purpose" actually repels dream clients, and the simple shift that makes people think "I have to talk to this person"✅ My four-step framework for rewriting your homepage so dream clients stop scrolling and start reaching out—without a complete rebrand or expensive website overhaulThis isn't about being the best expert in your field. People don't hire the best expert—they hire the one they feel most connected to, and story is the key to creating that connection. Ready to turn your website into your hardest-working salesperson?
