Where to Start as a Coach: Your Guide to Finding Clients and Building Momentum

You’ve just earned your coaching certification—congratulations! That’s a huge achievement and a testament to your dedication to personal growth and helping others. But now what? You’re likely asking yourself the same question many new coaches do:

“Where do I start as a coach?”

If you feel overwhelmed, unsure where to find your first clients, or stuck staring at a blank calendar—you're not alone. This is the part no one tells you about in training: launching your coaching career is a different journey than learning how to coach.

The good news? You don’t have to figure it out alone. Let’s walk through the common roadblocks and show you how to move from confusion to confident action—without spending a penny on ads or complicated funnels.


The Real Struggles of Starting as a Coach

Most newly certified coaches leave their training buzzing with energy, clarity, and a deep desire to make an impact. But within weeks, the doubts begin to creep in:

  • “Where do I find clients?”

  • “Should I build a website first?”

  • “Do I need to be on social media every day?”

  • “What should I charge?”

  • “Why does this feel so hard when I’m so ready to help?”

These are valid, common questions—and unfortunately, too many coaches give up here. Not because they aren’t talented or capable, but because they don’t have the right platform or support system to bridge the gap between certification and income.


What Most Coaches Try (and Why It Doesn’t Work)

In an attempt to get started, many coaches fall into one of these traps:

  • Building a website from scratch — which takes months and doesn’t generate traffic.

  • Posting endlessly on social media — without clear strategy or results.

  • Signing up for expensive marketing courses — that overcomplicate everything.

  • Waiting for referrals — which rarely come in the early days.

If any of that sounds familiar, know this: the problem isn’t you. The problem is that most new coaches are trying to piece together their business from scratch instead of plugging into a system that works.


Where to Start as a Coach: Plug Into a Ready-Made Ecosystem

Instead of wasting time and energy figuring it out alone, what if you could plug into a platform that already connects clients and coaches—and lets you focus on what you do best: coaching?

That’s exactly what Love2Coach was built for.


Introducing Love2Coach: Your Launchpad as a New Coach

Love2Coach is a global coaching marketplace designed to help certified and aspiring coaches launch their business, attract clients, and start earning—without upfront fees, commissions, or credit card requirements.

Let’s break down why Love2Coach is the perfect answer to your “Where do I start?” question.


1. Start for Free—No Barriers, No Catch

The first step is simple. Visit www.love2coach.io and sign up for free. There’s no credit card required, and the platform is 100% free to join. That means:

  • No monthly subscription
  • No hidden costs
  • No commissions on your earnings

You keep 100% of what you make.


2. Create a Profile That Works as Your Digital Storefront

Once you join, you’ll build a public coach profile that helps clients understand who you are and what you offer. Your profile includes:

  • A personal bio and coaching introduction
  • The services you offer
  • Your pricing—whether it's per session or package
  • A booking calendar
  • Testimonials and reviews
  • Optional blog posts to build trust

No need to hire a designer or build a website—Love2Coach gives you everything you need to show up like a pro.


3. Be Seen Without Marketing or Social Media Hustle

One of the hardest parts about being new is getting seen. Love2Coach does the hard work for you:

  • The platform markets itself to coaching clients around the world
  • Visitors browse by niche (mindset, health, career, grief, etc.)
  • Clients book directly through your profile
  • You don’t need to spend time creating funnels or running ads

This gives you instant visibility—something most new coaches spend months or years trying to build.


4. Clients Pay You Directly—You Keep Everything You Earn

Unlike many platforms that take a cut of your income or force you through their systems, Love2Coach keeps it clean:

  • Clients pay you directly
  • You choose your payment method
  • Love2Coach never takes a commission

That means you keep every pound, dollar, or euro you earn.


5. You’re in Control of How You Coach

Whether you prefer Zoom, Google Meet, or phone sessions—you decide how to deliver your coaching.

Love2Coach doesn’t interfere. You own the client relationship, the pricing, and the delivery. It’s your business—just with more support.


6. Grow With Reviews and Visibility

After each session, clients can leave a review on your profile. As you build your reputation, you’ll:

  • Attract more clients
  • Climb in the search rankings
  • Be seen as a trusted expert in your niche

You can also post blogs or updates on your profile to stay visible and show off your voice and thought leadership.


7. Scale Your Coaching Career—Your Way

Love2Coach grows with you. As you gain traction, you can:

  • Update your prices
  • Add new packages
  • Promote your profile on social media or your newsletter
  • Turn one-time clients into long-term transformations

You’re not boxed into one way of doing things—you’re empowered to grow your business the way you want.


Why Love2Coach Is Built For Coaches, By Coaches

Unlike other platforms built by tech startups who don’t understand the coaching industry, Love2Coach was created by coaches who have been where you are.

They know what it feels like to:

  • Get certified but feel invisible
  • Love coaching but hate marketing
  • Want to make a difference but struggle to find the first few clients

That’s why Love2Coach was built to remove the barriers and create a home for coaches to succeed—together.

And the mission is big: to become the largest coaching marketplace in the world, where clients find trusted coaches in every niche—and coaches finally get the recognition and revenue they deserve.


The Bottom Line: Where You Start Matters

When you’re new, where you start can either slow you down or speed up your growth. You don’t need to waste time guessing, second-guessing, or building alone.

Start where support already exists.

Start where your profile gets seen.

Start where you keep 100% of what you earn.

Start with Love2Coach.
