I’ve seen coaches make six figures from an audience of less than 500 people.
And I’ve seen coaches with 10,000+ followers struggling to make a single sale.
So let’s settle this once and for all…
It’s not about having more followers.
It’s about having the right followers.
Because an audience full of fence-sitters and freebie-seekers won’t make you money.
But an audience stacked with high-value, ready-to-buy leads?
That’s how you scale.
I see this mistake all the time:
- Coaches assume they need more leads before they can make the money they want.
- They focus on getting more people in the door without filtering for quality.
- They waste time “building relationships” with people who will never buy.
Here’s what actually works:
- Speaking to the right people—the ones who aren’t just interested, but actively looking for a solution now.
- Positioning your messaging to attract decision-makers, not just spectators
- Having an audience-building system that brings in both quality AND quantity
Because here’s the truth:
- A small, targeted audience will always outperform a big, unqualified one.
- And yes, audience size still matters—but only when it’s the right people.
When you nail this piece?
Selling stops feeling like an uphill battle.
It becomes effortless.
