BECOMING A COACH
Linda was in a dead end job that she didn’t enjoy, and falling farther in debt. She was also in an abusive relationship for over four years, and had low self-confidence. She decided she didn’t want to be a victim anymore, and she started a business with her long-time best friend. The business produced custom printed shopping bags for large companies such as Disney, Sears, Mattel and Nissan. Knowing “nothing” about business, she grew it into a multi-million dollar business, and a client referred to her a “Wealthy Bag Lady”. Since clients were already asking her about sales, marketing and sponsorships, she decided this would be her brand and she decided to monetize her coaching activities, primarily to women business owners.
