Social Media Marketing - Top Four Tips to Get Coaching Clients With Social Media Marketing

Are you a coach interested in social media marketing? Have you been using social networking web sites, such as Facebook and Twitter for a while, but you haven't gotten any coaching clients from them? The good news is that you can get coaching clients with social marketing, and it is not hard to do. Read this article for my four tips on getting coaching clients using web sites such as Facebook and Twitter.

Here are the top four tips for promoting your coaching business using social media marketing:

1. Define Your Social Media Marketing Goals.

Too many coaches jump into social marketing without a plan, without setting goals for the results they want to get from those web sites, and without creating systems in their business to support their marketing efforts.

Start by setting goals for your social marketing efforts - one of them should be building your list. Once you know what your goals are, it is going to be easier to see whether your social networking efforts are bringing in results.

2. Create Systems In Your Business To Support Your Social Media Efforts.

Even if you spend all of your time on social networking web sites, you are not going to get results unless you have systems in your business to support your social networking efforts and help you convert people you meet on social networking web sites into coaching clients.

Some of the systems you need include a way to invite people you meet on websites such as Facebook and Twitter to get a free gift from you and get on your list, a way to keep in touch with them and a way to convert them into coaching clients once they are on your list.

3. Network On A Regular Basis.

In order to get regular, consistent results from social media(such as more coaching clients), you must network on a regular basis. Share useful tips and ideas, share your blog posts, answer questions asked by your contacts.

Help others, and you will see that more and more people will be interested in what you have to say, and will join your list as a result.

4. Evaluate Your Social Media Efforts.

You will not know how well social media marketing is working for you unless you track your results. Evaluate your networking results on a regular basis to see what kind of results you are getting.
