How to Pick a Coach or Mentor 4


These days, it’s not enough to be good coach or mentor, because there is just too many good options out there.

In today’s market , coaches and mentors  need to be remarkable  ( as in Seth Godin’s definition – worthy of remarking on. ) and obviously of the very highest quality in every way.

As a coach or mentor you need to provide amazing quality at a value level your potential clients can execute on.

All sales are based on trust and value.

So first of all who ever you pick you need to ask the questions:

  • Do I know you?
  • Do I like you?
  • Do I respect you?
  • Do I think you are credible?
  • Do you know your stuff?

And then beyond that.

  • Is this what I want and need more than anything else to transform my life with my limited assets?

If the answers are no, walk away.

If the answers are yes, a mentor or coach can be the best investment you ever made.

All the best,
