3 Myths that Stop Holistic Healers from Being Visible to Potential Clients
By Larissa Popov | Authenticity , Business , Confidence , Visibility
If you’re a holistic healer, coach or wellness practitioner, I am certain you’ve got TONNES of skills.
I know you really want to change the world through the work you do!
So, why are you struggling to find clients?
It’s so demoralizing, to believe in what you do so sincerely, and then not see all of that HARD WORK and HEART be rewarded in the form of a fully-booked schedule and money in the bank.
Am I right?
I totally understand what that’s like because I’ve been there! After helping many clients with these same challenges, I’ve identified 3 common misconceptions that coaches, healers and wellness practitioners make that kill their confidence when it comes to getting more clients and makes them feel like they are the world’s BEST KEPT SECRET.
Myth #1: If you build it, they will come.
As an idealist, I’ve definitely found myself buying into this one! I really believed that if I was guided to this work and I was good at it, that the universe would support me by sending me the people who really needed my help. I learned the hard way, that although this approach may work very nicely for things like Bird Sanctuaries, it was not a good plan for a successful wellness business.
Myth #2: If someone needs my services, they will reach out and get in touch with me.
I know that it might seem like there is nothing more important in this world than doing the powerful work that you offer in your business, but your potential clients don’t have your services quite as “top-of-mind” as you you do.
Think about the last time you needed to find a new dentist or find a store that sells a particular product you were looking for… It takes serious effort to firstly, prioritize taking some sort of action in this direction when there are a million other things you have to do, and secondly, to actually reach out to someone for more information.
If we don’t make it easy for people to find us and connect with us in this fast-paced world, that’s expecting a lot!
Myth #3: If someone has the chance to meet me or see my website, they will understand the value that I offer.
As you may have noticed, having a physical presence or an online presence doesn’t necessarily translate into more new clients.
As experts in our field, we love to talk about what we do and how we do it because it’s just so fascinating, but what your prospective clients care about the most is how you’re going to help them with their problems. And further to that… what I’ve found in working with holistic healers is, often THEY are not that clear on the value they offer. So, if we are not even clear on the value we offer as service providers, how we can we expect anyone else to “get it”?
All of these myths or misconceptions may lead you to believe that it’s ok to keep hiding behind your computer, waiting for that magical moment when all the new clients start coming out of the woodwork!
But really, they serve as a way to avoid dealing with the harsh truth which is; in order to get more clients,
YOU NEED TO BE MORE VISIBLE!
And yeah, I know it can be REALLY SCARY to put yourself out there!
There can be all kinds of fears lurking underneath the surface, that are giving you good reason to keep hiding, but what I have found through my own experience and those of my clients is that there are 4 key forms of CONFIDENCE that you must have in order to step into the spotlight with authenticity and attract those ideal clients:
-
CONFIDENCE in the Unique Value that you Offer
-
CONFIDENCE to Share your Message in a Clear and Compelling Way
-
CONFIDENCE to Invite People to Work with You
-
CONFIDENCE to Promote your Business by Sharing Your Expertise In-Person, Online and On-Camera!
Notice that I also mentioned, doing it with AUTHENTICITY. This is isn’t about forcing yourself to do things that make you want to run and hide…
In my upcoming pilot program, “Own Your Brilliance: Stop Hiding & Share your Gifts”, I will be sharing my unique process that clears the hidden blocks that are stopping you from feeling confident in all four areas so that you can BE MORE VISIBLE to your ideal prospects and FEEL REALLY GOOD doing it!
Because this is a pilot, I am now offering the opportunity to participate at a one-time-only, radically-reduced rate in exchange for your valuable feedback.
