Choosing a voice-messaging platform for coaching clients


I'm pretty vocal about my love for Voxer, and how switching to Voxer-based offers transformed my business - but that doesn't mean I recommend Voxer to everyone.

This week's Ask Laura question was asked by Kate Lynch, author of the Atypical Kids, Mindful Parents Substack:

"I want to offer asynchronous parent coaching, and it doesn't much matter to me what app I use....

What suggestions do you have?

What pitfalls should I look out for?

What am I forgetting to ask about this idea?”

If you're considering offering voice-messaging coaching (or you already do) this 10 minute episode will help you decide what features matter to you when choosing your preferred platform.

And this is a lucky coincidence (as I recorded this episode 3 weeks ago) - but Lizzy is retiring her Rock Your Day Of Voxer course, and it's available at 80% off until Monday.

This course completely changed my business, and resulted in £10,000s in sales of Voxer-based offers. I used it to come up with my own version of a Day of Voxer, and then those clients inspired me to offer a longer-term marketing mentoring package that was Voxer-based.

What do these three have in common Reader? Lots of similarities, right? Do you know how they're different from each other? Their consistency. Just like ice creams, your marketing does not need to be a consistent consistency to be good. I consistently send the Comfy Business Newsletter at least once each week. But sometimes more often. And the day of the week it goes out varies a lot. I aim for the content to be consistently helpful to people who have a business that squishes in around a whole...

Sometimes my job involves pissing my clients off, Reader The conversation (via Zoom, Voxer, or text) goes like this.... Client: I need to build my email list, but I don't want to run Facebook Ads Or Client: I want to get more people into my membership, but my last doors open/closed launch cycle flopped, and I don't want to do it again Or Client: I know I need to be marketing my business, but I hate creating content for social media. Or some other variation of: I need this outcome, but I...

This just came up with a Marketing Action Plan client and it'd be great for an Ask Laura episode...but also it would be a really short episode, and it probably is easier to process and understand if you see it written down Reader. You know those 'This is for you if' and 'This is not for you if' lists that appear on sales pages sometimes.... They can help the reader understand if they're a good fit for the offer, and they can help turn away people who aren't a good fit. But sometimes they can...
