 Must read for anyone pursuing a coaching career. June 28, 2008
I found myself reading the great novel of the century! How can that be for a how to book? Every page was engaging and filled with so much helpful advice for a real novice like me. The pointers and the resources throughout the book have made is so dog-eared that I may have to purchase another copy, since will surely lose pages from my worn and torn edition.

I feel compelled to write a review for this book because all of the reviews, thus far, are so positive. These same reviews convinced me to buy the book. I feel misled. After two evenings with the book, I've packed it up to send it back to Amazon.
I consider a book valuable under two conditions: (1) it's aesthetically pleasing and/or (2) it contains great insights. This book fits neither criteria. It looks like a word document, printed out and bound at Kinkos. The text is huge and the writing is poor. At one point the author brags that while she wrote her first book in 6 months and her second in 6 weeks, her third book took mere hours. Unfortunately it shows. I also found the information and "insights" in the book tired regurgitations of what's said better elsewhere. Except in this book we have to hear much too much about how skillful the author is in her own business practices.
My main take-away from this book is that the barriers to getting a book published are not nearly as high as I'd imagined. I suppose, in a back-handed way, that is a good lesson to have learned.
There are so many coaching books out there, many well informed with great, implementable insights for new and experienced coaches. With so many to choose from, I do not recommend this one.
Instead, try "The Business and Practice of Coaching: Finding Your Niche, Making Money, and Attracting Ideal Clients".

I loved this book. It's a gem. As a SCORE volunteer counselor I regularly look for small business books that talk about how to start a successful coaching business. Up until I read this book my favorite was "Four Steps to Building a Profitable Coaching Practice (ISBN: 0595296602). Now I have two favorites. If you are looking to start a successful coaching business, then I highly recommend you get a copy of both books.
Both books talk about the importance of creating a program so you have a product to sell. People generally don't buy coaching services without having already sampled a product that the coach has authored. The idea is that coaching clients will devour the coach's product or products and ultimately want some one-on-one instruction. It's when the clients seek the personal instuction that the coach starts making money as a coach.
In Coaching Millions the author points out eloquently that successful coaches start out selling products online. They start by selling an ebooklet or ebook or even a regular book. When they find a winner that sells, then they build a "program" around it. You know, the kind of program that has books, cassette tapes or audio CDs. Maybe a DVD video would be included. They sell such a program for a couple hundred dollars or more. If sales for that product take off, then they ultimately will get people calling them for personal coaching services.
The author in this book explains how this all works. There is really a goldmine of information contained in this book. I have recommended this book to a number of my SCORE clients already. And I expect I will be recommending it to many more in the foreseeable future. Other titles I suggest are complimentary to this wonderful tome are: Web Business Success (ISBN: 0974924504), Secrets of Successful Blogging (ISBN: 0978806018), The Entrepreneurial Itch (ISBN: 1551807351), and The Chic Entrepreneur (ISBN: 9781934759042). 6 stars!
Essential reading for not only coaches, but really anyone in business March 22, 2008
After having been recommended to read this book by a fellow coach, I am blown away by the amazing information provided by Milana.
I wish I had this book 3 years ago when I first finished my NLP training - having said that, I believe that the necessary information comes to you when you are ready to receive it, so now is the perfect time for me to be reading this book - it may be for you too.
The most important aspect of the book I believe is the information on getting a "Niche". So many coaches that I have spoken to (myself included) have thought that it's sufficient to get your qualifications & away you go - you want to coach anyone & everyone, because who knows where your next client will come from.
Milana clearly shows that by narrowing your focus to a very specific and targeted niche (specifically something you are interested in or passionate about) can make all the difference in getting your coaching business on the right track.
This book is an absolute must read.
