In late 2014, ICF partnered with MMP (USA), Inc., to produce a 13-minute segment for Corporate Review, an award-winning business and health program hosted by Donald Trump, Jr., and airing on cable networks, including Fox Business, Bloomberg TV and Bloomberg TV Asia. The segment, which highlights how partnering with a coach can help individuals and organizations achieve their goals, features interviews with ICF CEO/Executive Director Magdalena Mook and ICF Professional Certified Coach Christopher G. Padgett (USA), as well as one of Chris’ coaching clients.
View (and share!) the segment, find upcoming air dates and learn about other ICF efforts to enhance awareness of professional coaching by visiting Coachfederation.org/enhanceawareness.

As you prepare for a new year, set aside a few hours to conduct an audit of your 2014 marketing efforts. What strategies, tools and techniques did you use to market your coaching business in the past 12 months? Which ones were most effective in reaching your ideal clients? Which weren’t as effective? How can you mix and match marketing strategies to make your message more resonant? Reflecting on these questions before you develop your 2015 marketing plan will help you meet the new year’s marketing challenges head-on.
