The Endurance Coaching Business Podcast

In today's episode, we're tackling a question that's often overlooked in the coaching world: Is your current platform really serving your best interests? While dual-focus platforms that cater to both coaches and athletes seem like a one-size-fits-all solution, they may actually come with some subtle but significant trade-offs. Key Points The Allure of Dual Focus: Platforms like TrainingPeaks have...

For online and in person coaching businesses an essential marketing strategy is producing customized content for the audience you're hoping to engage with and convert into customers.

In today's episode, we're going deeper into the role of AI in coaching. Although AI isn't ready to replace coaches, it's set to provide a competitive edge for those who adopt it.

AI goes beyond creating tailored training plans and extracting insights. It can help stream...

Which coaches will AI replace? that’s the question I’m now asking myself. In January I wrote about AI potentially replacing endurance coaches in my post “Will AI Replace Coaches?” . In that post I talked about how AI had been around a while but honestly wasn’t very useful, but was starting to get really good at lots of things. I wasn’t sure whether it would replace coaches or not. Well, with the r...

Grow Your Endurance Coaching Biz the Right Way 🚀 I just wanted to share something I think could be super helpful for growing your endurance coaching business without getting stuck at a revenue plateau.

How old are you? Recently, I found myself arriving at an office building with my skateboard tucked under my arm, only to be greeted by one of my peers with a disapproving look and the question, "How old are you?". As a 45-year-old software entrepreneur, I have become familiar with the stigma of doing things outside of the norm. 10 minutes later as I observed the same person who questioned my choic...

Endurance coaches, I know I've been hammering on about the importance of lead generation in my recent blog posts. You might even be thinking, "Enough already! We get it!" But the truth is, many coaches still haven't grasped the full significance of this concept. Even those I deal with regularly continue to wonder why they struggle to sell their products and services when they launch them. The real...

Take, Take, Take, Quit That’s how you can tell you might be attracting the wrong customers. They take, take, take, and then they quit. You’ve probably had this happen with your coaching business. A new client seems really excited, they signup, pay and you have a kick off call with them. They are full of questions and want your advice on this training principle and that new tech device, and the lat...

During a recent trip through the North Island of New Zealand I was listening to the audio version of Stephen Covey's book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People". The book is great and and I highly recommend it. I’ll write more about the other habits soon but for now the habit I want to drill into is of "Seeking First to Understand, Then to be Understood" . It reminded me of the last few article...

Running, triathlon, or endurance coach? Got an email list but never send emails to your subscribers? Many coaches have started email lists but rarely send emails, and when they do, it's a sales pitch.  This neglects the opportunity to nurture their leads and build relationships with them. In our latest blog post, we'll discuss why triathlon, running, and endurance coaches should be sending more em...

As a running, triathlon or endurance coach, you probably know the feeling of being swamped with work during the busy season. Training plans need to be written, workouts need to be monitored, and athletes need support and guidance (some more than others, lol). It can be hard to find time for anything else, let alone to think about ways to improve your coaching business. But what if I told you that...

As an endurance sport coach, it's important to have a strong online presence in order to attract clients and build your reputation as an expert in your field.

There are many compelling reasons why endurance sport coaches should consider ow...
