Niche Programs

Find your ideal niche

Are you able to have a promising coaching career without having a coaching Niche?

The answer is YES you can, BUT it will be difficult. You do not want to waste neither your time nor your money in marketing your services to the wrong target. What you want is to set your mark and market yourself with impact; and this can be achieved by targeting the specific audience who are interested in what you have to offer, and tailor your marketing accordingly. This will make attracting clients much easier. Having a specific Niche is vital to the success of your coaching business and will give you a noticeable Return on Investment. The major question that most coaches face is: “How Can I Select My Niche?” We at CCA have one advice to all coaches; choose a niche you believe in and you really care about, choose where your passion lies and you will find your ideal niche. Clients want to know that you love what you are doing and you have total faith in your message.

LIFE COACHING

Life coaching is a profession like no other. It embarks clients on a journey of self-exploration and self-reflection. It is a profound profession based on the sciences of positive psychology and emotional intelligence and may incorporate other sciences such as sociology, relationship development, performance enhancement, and neuroscience.   Life coaching distinguishes itself from many other interrelated professions such as counseling, consulting, therapy, and mentoring. The client as an individual is the priority and the whole process of life coaching is centered on breaking the chains that hinder clients from taking forward steps.   During this exquisite journey of self-discovery, life coaches accompany their clients in each step of the way to provide support and ensure they assimilate positive changes. It is about creating awareness, exposing the clients’ strengths, facilitating the exploration of their needs, and unfolding their personal power. Coaching helps individuals to capture the opportunity to grow and develop roadmaps to take them from where they are at the present moment to where they want to be in the near or long-term future.   Life coaches build a partnership relationship with their clients based on trust, confidence, and mutual respect. They are specialists who offer all their expertise to help clients promote and grow on a professional and personal level. Expert life coaches can foresee the potential in their clients and help them create the life they visualize.     Programs we also offer that fall under Life Coaching category:
