Relationship Coaching Technology:
14 COMPELLING REASONS TO USE A RELATIONSHIP COACH
by David Steele, Layne Cutright, and Paul Cutright
(with much appreciated input from RCI coaches)
The coaching relationship is unique and powerful, and really can help
you find fulfillment in your life and relationships. Below are some important
reasons to use a Relationship Coach, any ONE of which is compelling enough
to get your very own coach TODAY.
YOU VALUE RELATIONSHIPS HIGHLY
You prioritize building fulfilling personal and professional relationships.
You realize that your success and quality of life is directly connected
to the quality of your relationships.
YOU ARE COMMITTED TO SUCCESS
You are serious and intentional about having a fulfilling life partnership,
family, business, and community.
YOU WANT RESULTS
Working with a coach can move you farther and faster than you can on
your own.
YOU ARE WILLING TO LEARN
You realize that you don’t know what you don’t know, and
your future success may depend upon access to new relationships skills
and knowledge.
YOU ARE READY FOR ACTION
Using a coach can be the most effective means of translating knowledge
into practice. One of the most indispensable roles of a coach is to
help you use what you already know to make effective choices and take
the actions necessary to be successful.
YOU ARE OPEN TO MENTORING/SUPPORT
A Relationship Coach helps you to use your relationships to evolve and
develop relationship skills critical to your business success and personal
fulfillment. The process of self-discovery, learning about relationships,
and how to make successful relationship choices cannot be effectively
self-taught or obtained from a book or tape.
YOU WANT FULFILLMENT
You do not want to settle for less or risk preventable failure, and
you are willing to give yourself the gift of the support and technology
needed to be successful.
YOU WANT TO BE TRUE TO YOURSELF
A Relationship Coach helps keep you honest with yourself, helps neutralize
any tendency you may have to settle for less than you really want, is
good for providing "reality checks" and being a sounding board.
YOU WANT TO BE PROACTIVE
A Relationship Coach helps you solve problems while they are still small.
YOU WANT TO GO BEYOND YOUR LIMITS
A Relationship Coach holds your highest vision for you beyond your fears
and limitations, and helps you overcome your obstacles and challenges.
YOU WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY
A Relationship Coach helps you take responsibility for the quality of
your relationships so that you can create them the way you want.
YOU WANT LIVE AUTHENTICALLY
Today's world is filled with challenges to finding and staying on your
highest path, telling your truth, and making choices that are best for
you. A Relationship Coach helps you identify and live the life you really
want, and to be more of the person you really are and want to be.
YOU WANT BALANCE IN YOUR LIFE
Your life is filled with opportunities and conflicting choices. You
recognize the importance of creating and maintaining balance in relationships,
including the ones you have with yourself and your higher power.
YOU WANT NEW POSSIBILITIES FOR YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
You recognize that a healthy relationship is growing and dynamic. One
of the worst things that can happen is to take one another or the relationship
for granted. Opening to new possibilities keeps a good relationship
getting better with the passage of time. A Relationship Coach helps
you to continually discover and implement new and more fulfilling possibilities
for your life and relationships.

Practice Tips:
TOP 5 WRITING MISTAKES
by David Steele
As a private practice professional it is important to communicate effectively
with your prospects and clients. In composing text for your brochure,
web site, announcements, newsletter, etc, here are my top five writing
mistakes to avoid:
SPELLING ERRORS
Use your spell checker! Proofread everything you send at least 3 times
for items the spell checker misses. Ideally, have someone with good
writing skills proofread for you as well.
GRAMMATICAL ERRORS
If we want to build trust and credibility, grammar is as important as
spelling. Even the best educated confuse 'it's' and 'its,' and has trouble
remembering to put the punctuation inside quotation marks (which are
my most recurring errors!). There are grammar checking books and software,
or you can go on-line for free at
http://www.grammarstation.com/GC.html
USE OF CLICHES
A turn-off. If you aren't sure if a phrase is a cliché or not,
a fun site to visit is http://www.clichesite.com/index.asp
USE OF JARGON
Another turn-off. You lose your reader (and possibly the prospect/client)
when you use language your prospects and clients don't understand. Remember,
you are writing for THEM, not for YOU! Define your terms... even better;
use plain language so you don't need to do so!
TOO MUCH TEXT
Edit everything you write to its most concise form. Most good writers
spend much more time editing their writing down than actually writing!
For web sites, use lots of bullets and outlined points. For e-mail text
especially, such as e-mail newsletters and correspondence, break up
text into short paragraphs of a sentence or two.
I suggest reviewing the web sites, newsletters, announcements, brochures,
etc, of the leaders in your field and identify:
What they do well that you would like to emulate
What they don't do very well that you could improve upon
BONUS WRITING TIP:
When writing marketing copy for your prospects, emphasize BENEFITS, BENEFITS,
BENEFITS!
Address what your prospects and clients care about and want, not what
you think is important.
'Don't tell me about your grass seed; tell me about my lawn.'
