"Essential reading for anyone who's serious about running a life coaching, executive coaching or business coaching practice." Jonathan Jay, founder of The Coaching Academy" A highly recommended resource book that all coaches should own. this book is a marvelous 'insider guide' to the art of defining your coaching niche. It is concise, yet thoroughly comprehensive in its exploration of the sometimes complex subject, whilst remaining an enjoyable book to read with its healthy doses of practical advice, borne out of the author's pure experience. The lack of jargon means that the reader is informed & supplied with the necessary tools to be effective, as well as being given invaluable 'tricks of the trade' to help avoid some of the pitfalls out there in the real world. I have learned a lot from this book & it has changed the way that I now approach marketing as a coach." Grant Willcox 2Excel Coaching" Hannah McNamara is a successful coach who has the rare quality of actually walking her talk. In her informative new book she shares her secrets of success.

Everything you wanted to know about marketing but were afraid to ask!
As a fledging life coach I must say that the marketing side of the business was the scariest area to contemplate. After looking at Hannahs marketing website and being impressed with that I decided to buy the book. I am very glad that I did. It is presented clearly and concisely with an appropriate amount of humour. You'll need to buy the book to find this out but I suspect not many marketing books mention ducks!!! It is not dry and it is crystal clear that Hannah sure knows her stuff. It has exercises that you can do to build up your plans and work towards your goals. I bought mine from her website and she had kindly signed it, a sign to me that she cares about her business and who she connects with.

If you are going to buy one book on marketing for coaches then make it this one.

Great Marketing book
I thought I knew a fair bit about marketing until I read this book. A must for every coach, and business owner/ entreupeuner who wants to expand and make their business more effective. Having a great product alone will not pay the bills, this book will help you to pay the bills and more if the principles are applied, it is priceless and worth every pennny.

A must have for all coaches
This was the first non-fiction book I've ever read that I could hardly put down!! It has a style that is easy and engaging. I'm not new to coaching but I am new to marketing my coaching and I found Hannah's advice relevant, clear and motivating. There are lots of good ideas here which are great for new or experienced coaches alike and Hannah demystifies many terms with her 'Jargon alerts'. Whenever I feel my marketing efforts are flagging, I go back to this book for a boost!!
