    Your marketing isn't broken. The model changed. And if you're still operating like it's 2018, you're going to keep hitting walls. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why the old linear funnel is dead, what's killing your conversion rates, and the coaching business marketing strategy that's actually working right now. I'm also sharing the "breadcrumb method" I use to identify and convert the hottest leads in my audience. What you'll learn: Why 82% of coaches leave the industry by year two (and how to not be one of them) The 4 reasons the linear funnel model stopped working How to segment your leads by "temperature" and nurture them differently The breadcrumb tracking system I use to watch leads before they book Why personalized, high-touch outreach is the new marketing edge Plus: details on Best Damn Coach Live, April 13–14!

    What Two Days in a Room Full of Female Coaches Actually Does to Your Business

    What does it actually look like when a female coach bets on herself and shows up to a live event — even when the timing feels impossible? In this roundtable episode, I sit down with three clients who attended the very first Best Damn Coach Live: Kindyl Keeton, a mindset and action coach who drove 16 hours with barely one paid client; Sharleen Lucas, an RN-turned-wellness consultant who had an aha moment that's been expanding ever since; and Lauren Enright, a fertility coach who flew in from Montreal, overcame her own scarcity spiral, and declared on the flight home that she'd write a book and launch a podcast. You'll hear: Why showing up before you feel ready is the whole point How being in the room with the right people rewires your identity as a coach The real objections these women had — money, kids, timing — and how they worked through them What happened to Lauren's business after she recommitted despite a tough financial quarter (spoiler: best month ever) What Kindyl, Sharleen, and Lauren are most excited about for BDC Live 2026 Best Damn Coach Live is April 13 & 14, 2026. Two full days of strategy, real-time feedback, connection, and more than a few surprises. Grab your ticket at amanda-walker.com/bdc-live.
