Hey, hey everyone. Welcome back to another episode of the Course Building Secrets Podcast, the podcast for entrepreneurs, coaches, and consultants who are ready to scale their business without sacrificing customer experience. I'm your host Tara Bryan. And today we're diving into something super important for anyone transitioning from a one on one model to a scalable online business, how to separate yourself from the customer experience and customer outcome while still keeping that connection, high touch and personal. This is one of the biggest mindset shifts that you have to make when you are offering personalized one on one services to your clients. and going to create scalable online offers. So often we're helping our customers one on one, we're investing in their success that we almost get too involved. Then when we try and pivot into a scalable model, we feel lost and disconnected because we're guiding our customer's success instead of leading it. So today I've got five tips to help you step out of the daily delivery while maintaining the level of customer experience that your clients rave about. All right, let's get into it. Tip number one, to shift from service provider to solution designer. The first big shift you need to make is in how you think about your role in your business. When you're offering one on one services, you're often hands on and personally delivering everything. But when you shift to an online business model, you need to step into the role of guide and solution designer. Instead of focusing on how you can deliver each service, think about how you can create a repeatable system or framework that delivers the same results. Your goal is to build something that can run without you constantly being in the middle. This doesn't mean stepping away from quality. It means focusing on designing a process that allows your customers to succeed without your direct involvement. Alright, tip number two, systematize the customer journey. Once you've shifted your mindset to be more about designing solutions, it's time to systemize the customer journey. Ask yourself, what are the exact steps each client needs to take in order to reach the transformation? Take your one on one process and map it out. This will help guide you. Become the foundation of your scalable program. The key here is creating consistency in your customer journey so every customer gets the same high quality experience whether you're involved or not. Consider automating certain parts of the journey like onboarding or check ins with tools to guide the customers at every stage. This frees you up and ensures that each client has a seamless experience from start to finish. Tip number three, utilize tech to elevate engagement, not replace it. Now you may be thinking, but if I'm stepping away from the day to day, won't my clients feel less connected? This is where tech can become your best friend. Tools like the Core Experience Platform, Email Automation, and Chatbots can help you maintain a personalized feel without you having to show up for every interaction because you're pre-creating the experience. For example, set up automated check ins that make your clients feel supported. Use video messages to welcome your clients and guide them through key obstacles on the path to reaching certain milestones. The goal is to replicate your personal touch points that make your one on one services unique without you having to be there live. tip number four. Foster community to maintain personal connection. A big concern for most coaches and consultants is losing the personal relationship they have with clients. Here's the thing. You don't have to be the sole connection point for your clients to feel supported. Building a community can become a huge game changer for you. Plus, once you have a customer journey mapped out and start delivering it consistently, you actually will have tons of time to show up and create those personal connections. So create a space like a private group or forum where clients can connect with you and each other. Not only does it allow them to learn from each other's experiences, but it also gives them a sense of belonging and support. This takes some of the pressure off of you to be involved in every interaction while still ensuring your clients feel connected. Tip number five, create scalable ways to show up for your clients. Finally, it's important to build in touchpoints that allow you to be visible to your clients in a way that doesn't take up all of your time. This could mean hosting Q& A calls, offering live monthly trainings, or even providing pre recorded video content that answers the most common questions your clients ask. By creating these scalable opportunities, you're still giving clients access to your expertise, but in a way that doesn't require you to have to be available 24 7. You can batch create content, schedule group calls, and show up for your clients on your terms, not theirs. So in closing, there you have it. Five tips to help you separate yourself from the customer experience as you transition from one on one to a scalable online business without losing that personal touch. Remember, scaling doesn't mean stepping away from the customer experience entirely. It means designing systems that deliver the same high level results without you having to be involved every step of the way. It's about leveraging technology, community, and smart processes so you can scale your impact without sacrificing the experience your customers love.
