Coaches, Your Competitors Are Stealing Your Clients – Here’s How to Stop Them

If you’re a coach and NOT on Google Business Profile (GBP), you are handing your potential clients to your competitors on a silver platter.

Every day, people are searching for coaches just like you—but they’re finding (and hiring) your competitors instead.

Why? Because your competitors are showing up on Google when you’re invisible.

If you think “I don’t need GBP because I don’t have a physical office”, think again.

The coaching industry is changing, and those who don’t adapt will be left behind.

Here’s why being absent from Google Business Profile is costing you clients—and how to fix it.

Your Clients Are Searching for You – But They’re Hiring Someone Else

When potential clients search for “life coach near me,” “business coach online,” or “mindset coach,” Google does not show random results. It prioritises businesses that have an optimised Google Business Profile.

That means if you don’t have one, you don’t exist in Google’s eyes. Instead, your competitors who took five minutes to set up their GBP are showing up—and winning clients who should have been yours.

Question: Have you ever wondered why some coaches seem to have an endless flow of leads while others struggle? Answer: They are leveraging Google’s free tools, and you’re not.

Credibility Matters – And Right Now, You Have None

If a potential client Googles your name or business and nothing comes up (or worse, they see an incomplete profile with no reviews), they instantly question your credibility.

Meanwhile, your competitor’s GBP is full of glowing testimonials, engaging posts, and easy booking links. Who do you think gets the client’s trust? Not you.

People trust Google. If Google says your business is real, clients feel more confident hiring you. Without a GBP, you look like an amateur, even if you’re a world-class coach.

Stop Wasting Money on Ads When GBP Can Get You Clients for Free

Are you spending hundreds (or thousands) on ads to attract coaching clients? What if I told you that Google Business Profile can generate leads for free?

Instead of throwing money at paid marketing, GBP helps you get:

? Organic search traffic from potential clients actively looking for a coach.

? Free exposure on Google Search and Maps.

? More inquiries, calls, and website visits—without spending a cent.

Meanwhile, coaches who refuse to set up GBP are burning money on ads, hoping to catch leads that their competitors are getting for free.

If You’re Not on Google Business Profile, You’re Invisible

Think about your ideal client. They’re ready to invest in a coach. They type “career coach near me” or “business mentor online” into Google.

Who shows up? The coaches who have a fully optimised Google Business Profile. Not you.

That’s like owning a shop but refusing to put up a sign while your competitor has a bright neon billboard right outside.
