Leadpages recently hosted 9 master coaches and marketers in a virtual summit event entitled Converted: Clients from Scratch. Aimed at helping coaches, consultants, and service providers explore how to sell professional services online and book clients, the day-long conference covered everything from the foundations of a personal brand to sales techniques for premium programs.
In case you’ve been outside the Leadpages loop for the past several weeks and missed out on the live event, we’ve pulled together some of the un-miss-able highlights.

Uncover your niche over time
There are obvious benefits to choosing a niche and focusing on a narrow specialty or segment of the market. But that doesn’t mean you have to know exactly what to focus on during the first few years of your coaching or consulting business.
Choosing a niche? Don’t do it over night. Gauge interest and validate the market demand slowly rather than pivoting your brand right away.
The most successful service providers allow their market focus to develop over time. Find something that resonates with a specific audience and build upon that. Clarify the components of (1) who you serve, (2) what you help with, and (3) how you do it. And most importantly: test, don’t guess. Treat choosing your niche like a series of experiments rather than a puzzle to solve in your own head.
Word-of-mouth marketing will only get you so far in your business.
Having a website that attracts the right audience and pre-qualifies them to work with you is a must.
Skip the bells, whistles, and complications for your website, and keep it focused on converting visitors into leads and clients. Use a “take action, revise later” approach to your website content, beginning with better images, a handful of pages (home, about, get started, thank you), and opt-in opportunities to claim your free lead magnet.
Take the ideas presented from the rest of the Converted sessions and implement them into your website. Showcase your primary niche throughout your site (Session 1), using emotional triggers as the foundation for your copy and images (Session 4). Use pictures of you on your website that show off your personality and expertise (Session 2 and 3).
