From a Full-time Recruiter to a Full-time Coach in 8 months
From a full-time Recruiter to a full-time Coach in 8 months: Vicki Marinker is a CTI-trained coach who was drawn to coaching during lockdown.
Vicki launched her practice in July 2021, while still in a full-time Recruitment role.
She had a trickle of clients, through referrals and via LinkedIn. But she was frustrated that her coaching business wasn’t growing. She wasn’t clear on her offer, and felt stuck.
She joined the Abundant Coach Accelerator program in June 2022.
During Vicki’s first call with her cohort, she brought up the question of pricing and received feedback that it could be doubled for the type of coaching she is offering.
The outcome of that call was transformational. That afternoon Vicki signed up two new clients at the new price.
What’s more - it gave her the confidence that it could be possible to enjoy her lifestyle through coaching work alone!
Fast-forward 8 months - Vicki had a clear niche and offer and signed up 18 coaching clients! She built her business to a stage that could support her financially.
In January 2023 Vicki resigned from her recruitment job to be a full-time Career Coach.
Vicki now helps frazzled communications professionals to get confident and clear about their careers, and be the stand-out candidate for the jobs they really want.
If anyone in my network interested in getting this type of support - please do message Vicki Marinker ACC.
Vicki is also a LinkedIn evangelist and Top Voice for Careers and Job Search.
If you’re interested in learning more about her LinkedIn content process - we are running a small-group Masterclass for Coaches in our program and we decided to open it to ALL, so we can learn and grow together:
This is what Vicki has to say about her experience in the Abundant Coach Accelerator program:
“Katrin’s program gave me the structure I needed to demonstrate to potential clients how transformational coaching can be. She also gave me the confidence to charge what that transformation is worth, and ultimately get to a stage where I was able to give up my job.
I love Katrin’s coaching style, which is a mix of pure coaching and training on the practical stuff that we need to know to move our business forward.
Her community is intelligent, experienced and supportive.
If you love coaching and want to grow a successful coaching business, but don’t know how, Katrin is the answer.”
