Life Coaching is about coaching people in all areas of life. Spirituality is one of those areas. In Spiritual Coaching we address life from a spiritual perspective, so spirituality is more of a focus in this course.

If you conducted research on the Internet, most coaches are charging $300 to $600 a month for individuals or $800 to $1,200 a month for executive and organizational coaching.

Coaching fees vary according to where you live, your niche, and your personal preference.

As our coaching process is more in depth, most of our alumni choose to work with their clients on an hourly basis. Other coaches work with their clients for only a half-hour or 45 minutes. You can also provide group coaching and workshops. In our class or in your private session with your instructor, you will determine your natural marketing style, give you feedback on your marketing strategy, help you determine your fees and packages, and give you new ideas for social media, live speeches and workshops, and referral sources.

Some people are able to get their business going immediately. Just three weeks after completing her course, one graduate booked five radio shows and got local magazines and newspapers to write a story on her. Others take a longer time to get started because they work full-time, have a family, or have other responsibilities which also require their focus. The average person who wants to make their livelihood as a coach takes 3 months to a year to build a successful practice.

The good news about coaching is that you are not selling widgets. This is a personal service that is about helping others. It is about caring, showing compassion, and really connecting with other people. Marketing needs to be natural. During the class and individual time with your instructor we find ways that are natural and easy for you, and that fit within your schedule.

For specific examples of easy and natural marketing techniques, you might wish to come to our free online class. As a graduate of Life Purpose Institute, you will get extensive support and virtually step-by-step instruction from many live calls and webinars and recorded and archived content within the Alumni Center.

We teach how to incorporate spirituality into the coaching where appropriate. We respect each person’s unique philosophical and spiritual path.

Many of the people we work with are multifaceted. If you are dependent on marketing through the Internet, you need to niche as there are thousands of coaches. If, however, you are marketing locally through speaking or contacts you have, you can have a more general practice. That being said, you still need to come up with a catchy and marketable approach.

Life Purpose Institute will reasonably accommodate qualified students with a disability so that they can attend a program.
