Author: Coaching Out of the Box

After great effort and hard work, we're very excited and proud to announce that Coaching Out of the Box® has been approved as a Level 1 International Coaching Federation (ICF) Accredited Coaching Education Provider.

The ICF provides Coaching Education Accreditation to Coach Education providers. ICF-accredited education organizations must complete a rigorous review process and demonstrate that their curriculum and the organization aligns with the ICF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics and meets the highest industry standards.

How does this benefit you? Before our Level 1 accreditation, students that went through the Coaching Out Of The Box® Fast Track to ICF Credential program were only awarded 68 hours of ICF accredited coach specific education. Now they get 111.4!

Sixth in the What's Next? Series

Business name, the last in our series of What’s Next? but definitely not the least important task. Niche, tone, branding, marketing, social…all are important and over the course of the last few months we’ve looked at each individually.

To recap, here are the tasks to consider when focusing on what's next in starting your business:

Website- August newsletter
Niche- September newsletter
Tone, branding, personality- October newsletter
Marketing - November newsletter
Social - December newsletter
Business name

You’ve looked at your competition’s website, reviewed your available budget for both website and marketing, dug into who you are as a coach and how you want to portray yourself to potential clients. Now, let’s put the icing on the cake and find a business name.

There’s a lot to consider and a lot that is in a name. Think of brands that you love, logos that you recognize on sight, emotions that bubble up when you see or hear that business name.
