Learn how by using 8 EASY steps you can work with clients from the Inside Out.

Train to be a Holistic Image Coach

 These courses and programmes are provided for you to offer light, fun, refreshing, knowledgeable consultations/services with your clients. On purpose I have removed the 'sterile' atmosphere, the lets over load people with so much information their minds shut down and all they want when they leave is to lie down in a darkened room with a cooling cloth to soothe their throbbing heads.

Your clients will leave you wanting more because they have learnt loads from you, they have enjoyed themselves and feel confident again because you have helped them in a fun interactive way.

 

 

Training with me you will get first hand knowledge and experience from an active Image Coach who truly understands and can identify the simple steps you need to run a successful business. You will learn from my years of active experience and I will share with you my deep knowledge of styling clients in a holistic way. You get the theory PLUS the practical assignments at the stores - the TOTAL learning experience.

 

Dear Entrepreneurial Image Coach,

 

Are you….

 

Ø       Looking for a training company who doesn’t use outdated & uninspiring jargon when working with clients.

 

Ø       Someone who wants to offer a much softer approach to styling clients…..that of a coach rather than the Trinny & Susannah approach, which leaves you cold.

 

Ø       Beginning to realise that offering services which are authentic to you are very important to how you market your business

 

Ø       Someone who people come to for styling advice

 

Ø       Someone who likes fashion

 

Ø       Someone who wants a limitless business & are creative

 

  

 

Why should you have to conform to the 1970’s principles still used by many training companies today……..when I first trained I was told who I would be working with and set my business up accordingly BUT IT DIDN’T FEEL RIGHT. I worked out who I wanted to REALLY work with and the world opened up to me because I honoured who I truly was from within. I don’t do bossy and intimidating and believe me I’ve met many of these professionals and they scare the life out of me….what they must do for their clients??????

 

Is this training course for you?

 

 

As an entrepreneur you have a passion for your business and a strong desire to share your unique talents in a way that really makes a difference to all the people you work with.

 

Working with me you will:

 

Ø       Effectively move your ideas beyond fearfulness (which keeps you where you are STUCK)

Ø       Transform you from a plain ‘business’ into one that powerfully represents YOU, this makes it easy to market yourself and as a result sets you apart from your peers

Ø       Using modern creative marketing for consistent, positive & profitable response from your potential clients

Ø       Learn 8 SIMPLE steps to creatively styling your clients with ease and have them coming back to you again and again

 

 

I’m Sue Cocks and when I first started in business I thought that my ideal client was A.N.Y.B.O.D.Y, you know, just send me anyone who will pay me, get some money in the bank, I don’t care what there background is I was just grateful to get ANY clients that I gave little thought to specialising. As I began to panic due to a shortage of clients I finally began to tap into my authentic self and worked out ‘who’ my ideal client was.

 

 I worked out that for me it was more about connection and the experience of being with my ideal clients; I didn't just want a 'one-off' consultation with them, I and they wanted much more out of the experience. When you connect deeply with your ideal clients, the time spent together flows; you build a rapport so quickly that you feel like you''ve known them for a lifetime instead of just a few hours. Your ideal client benefits so much more than you will ever know and business relationships are built and they come back to you time and time again.

 

It was also about me honouring that I don't do or like complicated & dated processes, I find them overwhelming and clients go away confused & upset. For example styling a client the 1970's way is so humiliating...stand them by a wall, draw around them, get the tape measure out and point out their flaws....that leaves me totally cold and it doesn't do wonders for the client either, I hated the experience and vowed never to put my clients through it. That is not connection to a client and delivering a memorable experience.

 

I work using simple confidence enhancing steps, I want my ideal clients to love and enjoy their time with me and that is what I'm about.

Sue how do I choose a training company/home study programme?

 

Indecision, that’s the main reason people never book a course or home study programme…..they go round and round and round all the training courses that they can find, get totally confused and get into a right pickle… the end result of which is indecision. This process can go on and on for months and sadly years.

 

In order to be able to make the right decision for you, you first of all need to write down a list of your requirements:

 

What you want to train in

How you like to do this

What’s best meets your needs

Listen to your intuition/gut instinct

Who do you want to work with

What do you want to offer as services/programmes/events using your creativity

 

Once you have your list then you can only view the companies that meet your needs the best

 

What you must not do:

Listen to people who do not understand what you want to do with your life

Feel pressured to sign up

Do a course that someone else did, but doesn’t feel right with you – we are all different

Choose a course because it’s cheap

Don’t write a list

Listen to well meaning but misguided comments

 

 

You must also understand that the training is just the beginning of your business; businesses evolve every single year, they have to, to grow and thrive and for you to develop. Take me for example when I started out 8 years ago:

 

v      I only offered services for women then

v       It quickly became apparent the men also needed my image services so I added those

v      I developed corporate services as I was approached and did more training in order to do so

v      I started to run events

v      I was asked to offer personal shopping across the country

v      I started to give talks so I joined Toastmasters International to learn the art of public speaking

v      I was offered contracts on cruise ships as a speaker

v      I was prompted to start my own training academy

v      I’ve developed my home study programmes

v      I found my mentors to help grow and stretch me and my businesses

 

Did I think for one minute when I started my training 8 years ago where I would be in several years time and what I would be offering. NO. It’s been the most amazing journey, I’ve jumped several times right out of my comfort zone in order to offer more; I could have let fear and indecision hold me back but I refuse to let it because I know that each opportunity is worth exploring to see where it takes me to which is often the next level of business for me. It’s exciting, thrilling, demanded, down right scary……and I LOVE IT and so will you.

 

So go write your list of your training requirements and go find the course or programme that best suits you. If I can help you I will be delighted to hear from you.

Trainees comments

I trained with Sue 2009-2010 The training was fun and informative and Sue was very willing to share her skills and experience. On our last day things came together and it has given me confidence to move forward and set up my own business. The fact that Sue is prepared to continue to offer support and advice is invaluable.
Thanks very much Sue!

Sue I really enjoyed the course very much; you are so thorough & knowledgeable and I love your modern approach. I now stand apart from my peers and offer a totally unique service. Afshan, Manchester

I feel very lucky to have found you and your course. I feel the business is really going to get going and do well, and it so nice to have a tutor who is so supportive. RS.

Sue just wanted to say a big thank you for such an interesting, informative and enjoyable week training with you. SH

Training in the image industry could set you on the road of a very satisfying and rewarding career. If I can help you to realise your dreams, I look forward to working with you.

I decided to call Sue and have a chat about my training needs and I'm so glad that I did. I felt comfortable with her right away and what was really great was that she just listened, answered my questions and there was no pushy sales spiel. Having spoken to several companies I was very surprised at how pushy most of them are and I felt that they just wanted bums on seats, they weren't interested in me, just my money. Sue gave me some things to think over which really helped me to make my decision to train with her. The training is a great mix of interactive and theory, the perfect balance. Her systems are so easy to learn and understand and how Sue develops your thinking about you and your business is so refreshing. The contemporary approach was just the method I was looking for. As a trainer Sue is wonderful, an inspiration to everyone, and a constant source in creative energy. (Izzy) 
 
I had a great and intensive week with Sue learning to become an image coach.  Sue took me through all the aspects of the job seamlessly.  It was exciting to get my colours done and realise that I could wear different colours - and the shopping afterwards was great.  I bought clothes I never would have thought of wearing before.  It was great to know that my future clients will hopefully get the same buzz and confidence after we have worked through their colours and style personality, as I did after mine.  Only job left now is to launch the website and get my own clients!  Thanks again Sue!   Laura, Scotland
