SHOW NOTES

(03:27) “A couple of times what you’ll need to do if you’re copying testimonials from LinkedIn is you need to take out all of this bump. Take out the ‘what you want to do is’ and just give them the testimonial. So, this bit here… what I’ve done is I’ve popped this down on a spreadsheet. I’m just going to go and copy and paste it because I’ve given ChatGPT my instructions. Now what I want to do is just copy the testimonial text. That’s quite a bit of it. You want to give it enough data to work with, not too much because otherwise the system won’t work. Oh, come on, keep going! Oh, so slow… choppy chop chop… Oh, right, oh, okay. I don’t want that bit, so copy it, pop it into ChatGPT, and then press the little go button and let’s see what it’s going to do.”

(04:08) “Okay, so it’s giving us a little bit of background information. So, as a female entrepreneur in her 40s, she has been running her own business for over five years, but she feels like she has hit a plateau and wants to take her business to the next level. But she is not sure how to do it. This classic example of a client that I work with is just classic pain points: struggling to take a business to the next level, lacking clarity, focus, and direction, feeling stuck and frustrated, needing help with marketing and sales, wanting to position herself with authority and credibility. What Wendy has helped her with: created her one-to-one signature program, positions herself with authority and credibility, sold more products and services, served her clients at a high level.” 

(05:29) “Strengths. I mean, imagine how long this takes you to do if you’re doing it with your own head. Whereas if you can give GPT a reasonable amount of data, it can do it for you. And this is 100% authentic and in line with my business and what it is that I do, which is really important to me. So, strengths: stability, ability to help our clients to gain clarity, focus, direction, marketing expertise and experience, ability to position her clients with both writing credibility, sales skills, communication skills. What else have we got here? Um, why Sarah loves working with Wendy: Wendy cares deeply about her clients, Wendy delivers on her promise and helps her clients achieve their goals, Wendy is a powerful personal coach, Wendy’s warm, compassionate, and easy to pull through, brilliant. However, I would like a bit more information on the background and a bit more information about Sarah, so let’s try…”  

(06:05) “So, because I haven’t got all of the information it is that I’ve wanted, I’m going to now put another prompt in and ask it a question. Now, this is what I mean about working backwards. Sometimes the system needs a bit of time to mull it over, turn it out, and then for you to ask another question because it hasn’t necessarily given you what it is that you were asking or you want more information, or you want it said in a different way. So, I’ve got: ‘Create a client persona in English based on all the copy above: demographics, background, etc.’ Let’s see what happens when I put that in.”  

(06:40) Backwards, sometimes the system needs a bit of time to mull it over, turn it out, and then for you to ask another question because it hasn’t necessarily given you what it is that you were asking or you want more information or you want it said in a different way. So, I’ve got now create a client persona in English based on all the copy above, demographics, background, etc. Let’s see what happens when I put that in. Okay, slightly different. Name, age, occupation, education background, demographic, behavior.  

(07:23) Goals. What else is it going to give us? Challenges. Fantastic, fantastic. How to reach Sarah. It is essential to offer her products and services that are convenient, efficient, and time-saving. Educational content in the form of blogs, videos, and products can help her learn about new marketing techniques and stay up to date with the latest industry trends. What else did we have here? Challenges. Sarah’s busy schedule makes it challenging for her to attend traditional marketing courses and conferences. She often feels overwhelmed with work and family commitments, which makes it difficult.  

(08:05) And family commitments make it difficult. Now, here’s the thing: you want to create a number of personas, not just one. So what you could do is take a group of testimonials, put that group in, go through this process. There you’ve got one person. Do the same for the next batch of testimonials. So I could do 10.  

(08:29) Testimonials for each search of a persona that ChatGPT can create for me. Behavior: Sarah is a tech-savvy person who uses her smartphone and laptop extensively for work and personal use. She values her time and prefers to use products and services that are convenient and efficient. Sarah is interested in learning about new marketing techniques. That’s interesting because the majority of my clients aren’t necessarily tech-savvy, so there must be something said in the testimonials that I haven’t necessarily picked up on before.  

(09:13) They’re not tech-savvy, and they value working one-to-one, so they like the exclusivity and the closeness of that relationship. I’m not picking that up in here unless I’ve missed it. Background: Successful Marketing Manager for a well-known company in the tech industry. She has been in this field for over a decade. Yeah, so it’s given me more information. This persona let me… I’m going to ask it to do it again. It’s not sitting 100% with me. The one I did earlier was on point, was completely accurate.  

10:55 Their personal and professional lives – she wants to help them identify their goals, create actionable plans, and hold them accountable. Yeah, one of Samantha’s main challenges is attracting new clients. Yeah, that’s accurate. Although she has been successful in building a reputation as a coach, yeah, she struggles to differentiate herself. Yeah, that’s more like it.  

Values and motivation – Sarah is motivated by the success of her clients. Yeah, absolutely. She is passionate about helping people to overcome obstacles and…  

11:25 Actually, this almost sounded like a mirror image of me, achieve their goals. Samantha values honesty, integrity, and hard work. I think buying behavior when looking for coaching services, Samantha looks for coaches who have experience, like the proven track record of success. She also values coaches who are committed to ongoing learning and development. Samantha is willing to pay a premium for high-quality coaching. Yeah, conclusion, highly motivated person and business who is passionate about helping her clients. She faces challenges attracting your…  

12:01 Clients. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so it’s just put a different spin on it. Can you see that? Just by me saying, do this again but from the perspectives of a personal business coach is analyzed the data and it’s focused the persona very differently than what was above. The one that wasn’t just sitting quite right for me felt like it was off, off, off balance. I don’t necessarily work with marketing managers that are employed, unless they were thinking of going and creating their own business and setting up a… 

Signature system and leaving a legacy. So, but this is fantastic. Why Sarah loves working with Wendy, strengths, what Wendy has helped her achieve, pain points. This is incredible information that you can use because it’s accurate, 100% accurate, that you can use on your website in your marketing material. You can ask ChatGPT to go deeper on this, so it will go deeper into the data and it will extend. Maybe the pain points actually, let’s try this. So, you know, you don’t have to take what it gives you, you can build on it layer by… 

13:24 Layer and layer. Pain points, build on these. But it is, expand on these pain points. I know why I’m worrying about the spelling because I don’t need to because ChatGPT is freaking awesome. It’s also out for you, and I can’t spell anyway. Okay, here’s the expansion. Struggling to take her business to the next level. This could mean that the client has hit a plateau in terms of it’s going too fast plateau in terms of revenue and growth and is unsure of how to break through to the next level. They may feel like they’re…  

Putting a lot of effort without seeing any results. Yes, classic client, classic. As a coach, you would help the client who, I the client, identify areas of their business that could be optimized. Yep, lacking clarity, focus, this is brilliant, feeling stuck and frustrated. So, just always think about how can you explore, how can you expand on, how can you make it clearer, how can you get ChatGPT to strengthen the initial questions you’re asking yet, so you have more information to work with. It is very much a layering effect in terms of asking questions…  

14:55 Let me just go to my worksheet for a second. What you can do is you can have this as your starting point. So, pain points, you can have this as your initial outline, and then you can go back into ChatGPT, and you can ask it to go into more depth and to expand on what they mean about feeling overwhelmed and stuck in her business. What does it mean to expand on working long hours with little results? Give it more context so you can flesh it out. You can then use that copy in your article marketing, in your email newsletters. You’ve got a very clear picture of who it is that you’re marketing to. This is absolutely phenomenal. This is a game-changer for coaches. 

15:36 So what I’ve done is I have created their personal persona as a starting point, and I am going to write a blog article. So within that blog article, I will then add the video. I will then… I’ll add this video. I’ll then do a… I’ll take the transcript from YouTube, I’ll put it in ChatGPT, and I will ask it to clean it up. I will put that information on the website. I will then ask ChatGPT to…

16:20 What will I ask it to do? Oh yeah, I’ll ask it to create social media posts, which will then take them back to my website, which then takes them to YouTube to watch the video. So all the time, I’m thinking about how can I create topical authority? How can I leave a better footprint online so people can find me? So this is what I am working on now, is topical authority within my niche. ChatGPT is going to play a big role within that. Creating a legacy and a signature program, these two things are coming together and sitting alongside one another.  

18:08 To make it easier, I start over again with the questions and context when using Chat GPT. It’s a powerful tool, but it can generate too much information, making it overwhelming. As someone who’s dyslexic, I find it helpful to delete and start fresh to get a clearer and more concise response. Trust yourself and ask more questions to get better responses. Don’t worry about deleting irrelevant information. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the chat box below. I’d love to see your client persona, so drop it in the comments or chat box, depending on where you’re watching this video. Have an awesome day until next time!  

18:45 If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. Also, I’d love to see your client persona, so feel free to drop it in the chat box or comments section. Deleting irrelevant information is perfectly fine when using Chat GPT. Trust yourself and ask more questions for better results.

1. Think about the prompt: Chat GPT requires the right prompts, questions, and instructions for it to be able to create a client persona. I have created a specific prompt, for example: 

“You are an expert copywriter and marketer. Create a client persona with these testimonials in English, and to make it easy to read, create a bulletproof list of their pain points. Make a list of what I have helped them achieve. Make a list of the strengths and note why they love working with me.”

2. Provide Chat GPT with the information it needs: I gathered relevant testimonials for your signature program from LinkedIn. Choose a selective group of testimonials, remove unnecessary information, and paste them into Chat GPT.

3. Let Chat GPT do the work: Once the instructions and testimonials are in place, Chat GPT can begin to generate a personal persona. In seconds, it provides a description of a classic client persona, including their pain points and goals. 

4. Use the information to tailor your coaching services: By understanding your client’s pain points and goals, you can better tailor your coaching services to meet their needs.

Can I use client personas for personal and business coaches

By understanding their clients’ pain points and interests, coaches can create blog posts, articles, videos, and other content that resonates with their audience and provides real value.

Overall, creating client personas is a powerful tool for personal and business coaches to better understand their clients and create more effective coaching strategies.

are some things to avoid when creating client personas for personal and business coaches:

Making assumptions: Avoid making assumptions about your clients. Use data and research to inform your understanding of their needs, goals, and behaviors. 

Stereotyping: Avoid stereotyping your clients based on demographic or psychographic characteristics. Instead, focus on understanding their unique needs and preferences.

Overgeneralizing: Avoid overgeneralizing your client personas. Remember that each individual is unique and may have different needs and preferences, even if they share certain characteristics.

Neglecting to update: Avoid neglecting to update your client personas regularly. As your business and client base evolves, so too should your understanding of your clients.

Being too narrow: Avoid being too narrow in your client persona development. While it can be helpful to focus on a specific segment of your client base, be sure to consider the needs and preferences of other groups as well. 

Additionally, coaches should avoid creating client personas based on assumptions or stereotypes. It’s important to gather real data and feedback from clients in order to create accurate and effective personas. Coaches should also avoid using client personas as a one-size-fits-all solution, as each client is unique and may require personalized approaches. 

 Creating client personas can greatly benefit personal and business coaches by allowing them to better understand and meet the needs of their clients. By using personas to guide their coaching strategies, coaches can tailor their approach to each individual client and improve their overall coaching effectiveness. However, it’s important to gather accurate data and avoid making assumptions when creating client personas. With these considerations in mind, coaches can successfully use client personas as a valuable tool in their coaching practice.
