How to Find Your Dream Client (Even If You're Just Starting Out)
Last week, a coach asked me:
"How can I know who my dream client is when I haven't worked with anyone yet?"
It's a brilliant question.
And here's the thing - you don't need existing clients to get crystal clear on who you want to serve.
You just need 15 minutes and these four simple questions.
Let me show you exactly how this works.
1. "Who do you WANT to help?"
Start with passion. Think about:
- What type of person are you drawn to supporting?
- What problems get you fired up about finding solutions?
- What transformation would make you excited to be part of?
2. "Get Specific"
If you have clients: Think of your favorite one
If you're starting out: Picture your ideal person to help
Ask yourself:
- What keeps them awake at night?
- What are they struggling with right now?
- What's their biggest frustration?
- What's their ultimate goal?
3. "Find Them"
Time for some real-world research:
- Where do they spend time online?
- What solutions are they already trying?
- What's failed them so far?
- What questions do they keep asking?
4. "Reality Check"
This is crucial - be honest with yourself:
- Can you genuinely help them?
- Will they value your solution?
- Are you excited about serving them?
Quick Tips for Research:
- Draw from your own experience - what challenges have you overcome?
- Join LinkedIn or Facebook groups in your niche - what questions keep coming up?
- Read competitor testimonials - who's getting great results?
The Power of Getting This Right
When you're crystal clear on your dream client, everything else becomes easier:
- Your content writes itself
- Your offers make perfect sense
- Your marketing hits the mark
- Your business has real focus
Take Action Now:
Grab a piece of paper, set a 15-minute timer, and work through these questions.
Don't overthink it. Your first instincts are often right.
Remember: Every successful coach started exactly where you are. The difference? They got clear on who they wanted to help, then took action to help them.
