Avram Gonzales: Someone recently reached out to me asking me my opinion on whether they should invest in a particular coaching program for their business or not. And I think what they really wanted was a simple answer. But it's pretty nuanced. So we're making this podcast! Over the years I've invested in quite a bit of coaching and training.
Rachel has been here for a lot of them. And we figured we'd tell some stories. Share with you our experiences. Times when it worked out. Times when it didn't work out. And hopefully save you a boatload of cash and time the next time that you consider investing in something that will better your business or better you.
Rachel Gonzales: Yeah. Really important to take some consideration into these decisions that we're making. Whether it's a simple one time cost, or it's a larger sum, we're gonna give you some tips on maybe what to look at, and ask questions, the kind of questions that you would ask, and tell you some of the things that we've experienced, and what's come from that.
Avram Gonzales: Yeah, how to really evaluate whether it's going to be worth it for you or not and open up some blind spots for you. I think it's very easy to get excited about a new coaching program or a training system because let's be real, it's getting marketed to you in such a way that it is very enticing.
