Let Me In If You Try These Online Coaching Gigs
In this age of social media influencers, TikTok superstars, and smart app delivery drivers, another hot industry has made its way to the forefront — online coaches. That’s right, you will find countless coaches in all shapes and sizes through Instagram or YouTube. You can like and follow coaches specializing in weight loss, fitness, spirituality, or life skills. You can book calls with writing coaches, financial wellness coaches, acting coaches, job coaches, and online business coaches. My goodness! Podcasts and online video streams have millions of hours of these coaches’ content. There are even coaches for the coaches!
If you are looking for new ways to make money and help people around the world, online coaching may be for you. And since variety is the spice of life, you may want to consider some niche domains where the coaches are few and opportunities are not so simple to find. Let's consider some of those rare coaching opportunities (if such types of coaches even yet exist).
Cow Tipping Coaches
Moooove over, online gurus, there is a new industry in town — training and motivating people in the timeless craft of cow-tipping! You heard that right, you can book now to work with the newest fad thing(really it has been around for a long while, and who knows if it is an actual thing).
Now, consider yourself warned — there is no telling what types of liabilities you may face training people to knock over thousands of pounds of beasts after a night on the town. Let’s not forget you will probably find it difficult to find an overhead insurance carrier who will turn an eye to the trespassing and possible livestock vandalizing required. Maybe for this one, you should just charge a small fee for hyperbolic certificates of completion. Do you really think anyone is going to take this one seriously?
Binge Watching Alleviation
Sitting in front of your smart device and streaming Amazon Prime or Hulu specials all day became socially acceptable during the pandemic. However, now it may be time for people to step back and closely monitor their online streaming activity. Medical experts attest that excessive streaming can wreak havoc on your mental health and physical activity. And where health deficits meet social trends, opportunities await!
Think of this specialized coach as a new fad of time management, education, and life priorities training. For a reasonable fee, you can help people limit their Hulu viewing at work and Netflix splurges before dinner. You can help them plot out other lifestyle activities, like more gym time or face-to-face moments with family and friends. With clients’ permission, you may offer access to their streaming accounts to watch — er — track their viewing activity(this will help ensure they are not watching Showtime or Disney+ behind your back). You may have to put up extra money and work to make this business a real deal(including checking with Hulu or Netflix to determine if any conflicts could arise). But let’s see how far this business may take you.
Pieing In the Sky
Remember the classic comedy sketch where one person dunks another in the face with the most delicious of desserts? Why not bring back that classic act of pieing(if it ever left)? That’s right, aspiring entrepreneurs, get those sweet teeth and bear claws ready for this amazing new coaching opportunity!
This craft will certainly hold an unlimited array of both fun and challenge. Your coaching program might specialize in helping people make pies and practice throwing or dive deep into the crust and promote pieing through actual sponsored events.
One-of-a-Kind Coaches Program
And since we are talking about one-of-a-kind coaching programs, why not open a coaching business helping aspiring coaches find their own unique coaching niche? That’s right, you coach people to become top game coaches in a domain with little or no competition.
Even the possibilities for program formulas are overwhelming here. There would be the brainstorming for ideas. Then, you would have to help clients build a blueprint and begin enacting the steps. How exciting to consider just how many different coaching niches you may help introduce. Of course, your program would have some limits. It wouldn’t make sense to help someone form a coaching business that specializes on helping people to avoid online coaches.
So, if you want to make it big as an online coach the sky is the limit for niche domains to coach. If you do find my suggestions appealing, please be sure to let me in on the fun. Or, you can drop a comment and let others know what your niche coaching gig would be.
