Web design for professional coaches

High-caliber web design creates an experience that coaching clients love

The coaching industry’s market value is expected to reach $20 billion this year, making it the second-fastest-growing sector in the world. As professional coaching booms, it also gets more competitive. Many coaches have expertise and experience, so you need to find a niche or differentiator that sets you apart as a specialist rather than a jack of all trades. To win business, you need an online presence that emphasizes your value.

If you’re a coach struggling to get clients, a new website may be the secret to unlocking success. The combination of high-caliber web design and content can help your coaching brand stand out, establish credibility, and attract ideal clients for your business. A smooth user experience and powerful tools keep them returning and referring your coaching services to others.

A custom website does the heavy lifting for you

Reflects your value

Compared to other business websites, coaching sites need to be even more personal, striking the perfect balance of authority and compassion. Many people brand themselves as coaches but lack the experience and accreditations to deliver what they’re promising. A professional website is your first impression on prospects, and should immediately establish your credibility. Be clear and direct about why you’re the real deal and what your clients can expect.

Compels visitors to become leads

Your website should be full of social proof and compelling calls to action that convert website visitors to leads and leads to clients based on your unique selling proposition. Consider adding a video to your site where you talk about the value you provide or one that showcases past clients saying positive things about your coaching services. Be as specific as you can — prospects want to hire someone who has experience helping people in their situation.

Simplifies client interactions

Powerful, automated tools like a contact manager, online scheduling, and email marketing allow you to build and maintain your relationships without dedicating extra time to them. Set up workflows that re-engage your contacts and send them through a smooth journey on your website, from booking a coaching session to downloading a resource or submitting payment.

Streamlines your business operations

Your coaching website has the potential to centralize all areas of your coaching business so you can fully manage and grow it online. This includes your full list of clients and contacts, email marketing, past coaching sessions, and client payment history. Streamlining your client journey and reducing your dependence on third-party tools enables you to spend less time editing your website and doing administrative tasks, and more time serving coaching clients.

What separates a good coaching website from a great one?

The secret to an effective coaching business website is to make it equally powerful for your audience and you as a business owner trying to grow your practice.

With a website that more effortlessly collects information from leads and supports their journey to become a client — from submitting a contact form and receiving an automated confirmation email from you, to scheduling their first coaching session and submitting payment for it on your website.

There’s a lot that’s required of your website to make it a growth mechanism for your business. First, it should be a positive and accurate reflection of your brand and demonstrate the value of your services. Next, it should compel visitors to take action and move closer to working with you. Finally, it should support all of the work it takes to accomplish your business goals and grow your coaching practice.

On the client side, their experience on your site should be completely smooth and seamless. Contacting you, submitting and signing a contract, and paying for your services should all be accomplished in only a few steps without leaving your website.

An effective life coach website design follows some universal best practices but also needs to fit your brand identity and business goals. In general, the most successful professional coaches’ websites have a clean layout, intuitive navigation, cohesive branding, valuable copy, and facilitate seamless client interactions.

For all professional coaches, including life coaches and business coaches, you want to fill your website with testimonials, online reviews, and case studies, to demonstrate the value you've provided for real people. It's proven — 72% of consumers say positive testimonials and reviews increase their trust in a business.

Another make-or-break website element is photography. If you can get professional headshots, it's a great investment in your credibility. Blurry, low-quality, unprofessional photos are a turnoff to website visitors, who'll quickly leave your site and find another provider.

If you don’t yet have the budget to get new, professional photos taken, look for high-quality free stock images with low usage rates that are relevant to your niche and brand, that at the very least, won’t distract visitors from your site’s content.

Develop and improve your coaching brand by creating a mission statement. Why did you start your business and what do you aim to help your clients do? What are you selling and why are you selling it? The answers to these questions should all fit into an elevator pitch — or, more relevant nowadays — your website’s homepage hero section copy. The second someone reaches your website, they should be able to read 1-2 lines of copy that explain what you do and why you’re effective.

Next, build out your brand assets, including logo, brand colors, and website color scheme. It’s worth checking out some free resources on color psychology to choose colors that are authentic to your brand and appeal to prospective clients. For example, orange conjures enthusiasm and excitement, which may be why it's often used by sports teams, but is also associated with some negative emotions like frustration.

Once you’ve defined your company and created some initial brand assets, you can build a website. Firms just getting up and running may want to use a DIY website builder, but if you already have some team members and clients, you may need a more robust online platform that enables you to sell services from your site with relatively minimal effort.
