Getting clients shouldn’t have to be so difficult!

Many business coaches covet their templates and only share them as part of their programs.  However, getting clients shouldn’t be a secret. In an effort to help other coaches start with a leg up, here are seven of my most frequently used client getting email templates.

Referral Bonus Email for Existing Clients

Subject: An Opening in My Schedule = A Bonus for You!

Hey [first name],

I have a rare opening in my schedule and I wanted to reach out to you right away with a very special bonus offer.

For a limited time, when you refer a new client to me, I will gift you with a BONUS hour of coaching with me. Here’s how it works:

  • You refer one (or more!) new clients to me—the client must purchase a private coaching plan with me to be eligible
  • Once the client has worked with me for a minimum of 60 days, I will reward you with a free 1-hour coaching session (you do not need to have a current coaching plan with me to claim your bonus)

All you have to do is send your friends and colleagues to my discovery session sign up page and ask them to put your name in the “referred by” field. I’ll do the rest!

Here’s the link to send them: [URL]

Thanks so much for trusting me with your business growth. I look forward to our continued work together—and to meeting your friends as well!

Warmly,

[your name]

I’d be so grateful if you’d share this opportunity with your friends and colleagues. I also offer a [name of discount, coupon, special referral credit] on [name of service, product, etc.]  for each referral you send. Just make sure your referral mentions your name and lets me know you directed them to me, and I’ll make sure you receive the discount.

Thank you again for your business, and for referring us to others. It is such a pleasure to work with motivated clients such as yourself. I have truly enjoyed watching your progress and I appreciate you so much!

Getting Clients Testimonial Requests Email

Subject: Care to share your thoughts?

Hi [first name],

It has been such a pleasure working with you over the past [number] months! I’ve truly enjoyed watching your business thrive as your skills and confidence grow. I can’t wait to see where you take this!

As you know, it can be difficult to choose a new coach. How can you know who to trust? Or who might be a good fit for your business?

Those are very likely the questions you asked as you were thinking about hiring me, and I wonder if you could help answer them for others.

Would you please take a few minutes to write a testimonial for my services? Ideally, a testimonial should include:

Thank you in advance for your help, and I look forward to our continued work!
