From Awkward to Awesome: Mastering the Coaching Chemistry Call

Science +  Art +  Humour = High Conversions


The chemistry call is a defining moment where coaches either inspire confidence and trust or lose a potential client’s interest. A compelling value proposition ensures that coaching is seen as a transformative investment, not just a service.

When done well, and with a tinge of humour it leads to strong connections, long-term engagements, and meaningful impact. When done poorly, clients remain unconvinced, disengaged, or hesitant, leading to lost opportunities.

In this 60-minute session, we will explore:

  • Understanding Client Needs – Asking insightful questions to uncover real challenges and aspirations.
  • Clarifying Your Unique Value – Articulating what sets your coaching apart.
  • Speaking the Client’s Language – Using outcome-driven, relatable language.
  • Building an Emotional Connection – Establishing trust and aligning with their transformation goals.
  • Handling Objections Gracefully – Addressing concerns about time, cost, or outcomes with confidence.
  • Closing with Confidence – Structuring the conversation to encourage commitment.
  • All with an element of humour

By the end of the session, participants will have practical strategies to turn chemistry calls into powerful, conversion-driven conversations that lead to happy and impactful coaching relationships.
