    499. Why Your Business Strategy Isn't Working (And What Your Stage of Business Has to Do With It)

    20/10/2026 | 23 mins.
    You've invested in the courses, tried different strategies, maybe even created a low-ticket offer or a membership. But you're STILL struggling to sign clients consistently. What if the problem isn't that you haven't found the right strategy, but that you're investing in strategies your coaching business isn't ready for yet?
     
    In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, we're talking about something I see happen ALL the time with coaches who are doing everything they think they're supposed to do but aren't seeing the sales they want. Because listen, there are a million different ways to grow an online coaching business: ads, funnels, webinars, memberships, group programs, you name it. And I'm not saying those strategies don't work but just because a strategy is working for another coach doesn't mean it's the right move for YOUR business right now.
     
    Today, I'm breaking down why knowing what stage of business you're in matters so much, what needs to be working BEFORE you start adding more strategies, and how to figure out where your current client attraction process is breaking down. I'm also sharing the story of a client who had 14,000 followers and was getting people into her DMs but still couldn't convert them into paying clients. She thought she needed more offers, but that wasn't her problem at all.
     
    If you've been investing in courses, trying new strategies, and adding more offers to your coaching business but still can't figure out why you're not signing clients consistently, then this episode is for you.

    498. The #1 Mistake Coaches Make That Keep Them In Feast Or Famine Mode

    13/10/2026 | 21 mins.
    One of the biggest mistakes I see coaches make is constantly chasing the next strategy. They sign a few clients, have a slow month, decide whatever they were doing isn't working, and move on to the next freebie, workshop, or launch. And then they wonder why they're still struggling to get consistent clients.
     
    Today, I'm breaking down why constantly switching strategies keeps you stuck in feast-or-famine mode, the difference between unpredictable revenue and unpredictable client acquisition, and why having one repeatable promotion is so important.
     
    We're also talking about why you need to STOP abandoning a strategy just because it didn't work the first time, how to use your numbers to figure out what's actually going wrong, and why getting consistent clients doesn't mean getting the exact same results every month. Because you don't need to keep reinventing how you get clients. You need a strategy you can run, learn from, refine, and get better at every single time.
     
    If you've been signing clients here and there but keep jumping from one strategy to the next hoping something will finally bring you consistent sales, then this episode is for you.

    05:15 The difference between unpredictable revenue and having no system to get clients
    07:07 Why every coach needs a promotion they can run again and again
    09:30 Why starting from zero every time you need clients is exhausting
    12:47 Why one failed promotion doesn't mean your strategy doesn't work
    16:02 What happened when the exact same workshop crushed it, bombed, and then worked again
    20:11 Why you need to stop leaving your next client completely up to chance

    497. How to Create Bonuses That Actually Help Sell Your Coaching Offer

    06/10/2026 | 20 mins.
    Is your bonus actually making your offer more compelling, or are you just giving your clients more stuff to do?
     
    In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm talking about something I got wrong for a LONG time: bonuses.
     
    I used to think a great bonus meant giving people more. Another course. Another training. Another call. More resources. More value, right? Not necessarily. Because your buyer probably isn't sitting there thinking, "You know what would make me buy this? Another 50-page workbook." In fact, piling more into your offer can actually create MORE hesitation, especially when she's already wondering whether she has enough time to do the actual program.
     
    So instead of asking, "What else can I give them?" I'm showing you how to think about your bonuses like a marketer.

    496. 3 Ways to Run a Black Friday Sale in 2026

    29/09/2026 | 19 mins.
    You know what you're selling for Black Friday but how the heck should you actually sell it?
     
    Do you slash the price? Add a bunch of bonuses? Bundle things together? And once you've figured that out, how do you actually promote the thing without scrambling at the last minute?
     
    In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down exactly how I think about structuring a Black Friday promotion so you can stop overcomplicating it and get your offer out there. We're talking about three different ways you can structure your sale: discounting an offer, keeping your price the same and adding a strategic bonus, or creating a limited Black Friday bundle from things you already have. And I'm walking you through when each one makes sense.
     
    If you know you want to run a Black Friday sale but you're stuck trying to figure out the offer, the discount, the bonuses, or how you're actually going to promote it, this episode is for you.

About The Divorce Revolution
You're a coach. Now let's get you clients on repeat. Welcome to The Divorce Revolution, the podcast for coaches who want to sign clients on repeat without ads, constant posting, or cringe sales tactics. Hosted by Amber Shaw, the Queen of Pre-Selling. The title comes from where my business actually started. After my own divorce, I was lost, broke, and had no idea how I was going to support my kids on my own. I wasn't just grieving my marriage, I was grieving my identity, my security, and the version of me who thought someone else would always have my back. So I did what most women are never taught to do. I rebuilt my life, my confidence, and my income from the ground up by starting an online coaching business. And it changed everything. What I learned along the way is the thing most coaches in this space don't teach: the work that actually signs clients isn't the pitch. It's everything before the pitch. Your messaging. Your content. Your DMs. Your story. The whole ecosystem that makes the sale feel obvious by the time someone is on a call with you. That's the pre-sell. And it's the entire reason I exist. This podcast is for the coach who's tired of posting and getting crickets. The coach who's invested in courses, certifications, and trainings and still can't figure out why none of it is turning into consistent clients. The coach who doesn't want to run ads, do giant launches, or feel slimy in the DMs. The coach who wants a system that actually works without selling her soul. Each episode digs into the real stuff. Messaging that signs clients. Content that doesn't get ignored. DM conversations that don't feel awkward. Sales calls that don't feel like sales calls. Mindset, money, confidence, identity, visibility, and what it actually takes to build a coaching business that pays you back. Because the sale isn't where the magic happens. Everything before it is. If you're ready to stop guessing and start signing clients on repeat, you're in the right place. Welcome to the Revolution. Let's do this.
