78. From DMs to Dollars: 6 Tips for Coaches to Convert Online Chats into Real Clients

Social media is a great way to connect with new prospective clients, but it can feel impersonal and salesy too. We’ve all been the target of unsolicited DMs from people who want to sell us something.

Let’s not be those people in our own businesses.

This week, we're talking about how to initiate conversations with new people in a way that feels authentic and real, and then move those social media chats into real-world connections.

Because if we stay in the DMs or try to convert new clients there, we miss out on the nuances of face-to-face talks. It’s hard to build trust through text alone and we want our clients to feel good about saying yes to us.

Listen in as we cover what not to do in your DMs (like jumping straight to selling or offering coaching advice) and share six practical tips to make your conversations more effective. You'll learn how to validate people's feelings, be yourself, and naturally move chats offline.

Whether you're struggling with awkward DM exchanges or want to improve your online communication, this episode has real-world advice to help you connect better with potential clients. We'll show you how to read between the lines, acknowledge emotions, and invite people to chat in a way that feels natural and helpful.

So if you want to stop feeling stuck in never-ending message threads and start having meaningful conversations that lead somewhere, tune in to this episode. You'll walk away with simple strategies to make your DMs work for your coaching business, not against it.
