Itās been almost 4 years since I last visited to Sedona, Arizona! ā
ā
And man has my life changed since my last visitā
ā
In March of 2021, I decided to go on a 6 month traveling adventure with a group of online coachesā
ā
Every month we traveled north and visited a new state! ā
ā
We started in Sedona and worked our way through to Utah, California, Oregon, and Washington over 6 monthsā
ā
During this trip, I was considering what my ānext moveā was going to beā
ā
I had just finished working as a Physical Therapist and was 100% coaching online alreadyā
ā
But I wanted moreā¦ā
ā
I had built a health coaching business to multiple 6-figures but I wasnāt having funā¦ā
ā
My heart wasnāt in it anymoreā
ā
My favorite part of the day was not coaching my clientsā¦ it was:ā
ā
- Running adsā
- Making sales funnelsā
- Sending emailsā
- Tracking KPIsā
ā
It was during this trip I realized thatā¦ I love business! ā
ā
And during this trip, is when I started to make the transition to business coachingā
ā
I actually took my first sales call from a coffee shop here in Sedonaā
ā
Even though I had grown my business, I remember being so nervous to pitch an offer to help someone else grow their businessā
ā
I didnāt want to let them downā¦ā
ā
I wanted to make sure I could deliver them resultsā
ā
The client ended up signing up with me and that was my FIRST business coaching clientā
ā
Fast forward 4 years later, and Iāve helped 350+ health coaches start and scale online coaching companies so they can help more people live healthier livesā
ā
Coming back to Sedona has reminded me just how far Iāve come in just a few yearsā
ā
What started as a single sales call in a coffee shop has grown into a 7-figure business that is helping people from all over the worldā
ā
Hereās to going after what you love and creating businesses that make a difference š„ā

Don't work "harder", work "smarter" with these tools and software. These easily save me 10+ hrs a week of work š

You donāt need more information, you need more action:
- Stop scrolling
- Stop buying course
- Stop buying coaching
- Stop listening to podcasts
And go to a coffee shop and work.

This may sound crazy... but I just traveled to Italy for 10 days for free
How?
I'll tell you in this post!
I've always wanted to travel internationally, but the cost of travel prevented me from booking flights
Flights, hotels/AirBnbs, transportation, and food easily add up to a few thousand dollars
And that also doesn't take into consideration the opportunity cost of not working on my business
In the past, if I didn't work - I didn't get paid...
About 12 months ago, I started doing 2 things that allowed me to travel on this trip so that I could STILL make money while I was traveling and go for free...
The first thing I did was build systems in my business
I built these 3 systems that allowed me to "not work" and still get paid
1. Lead generation - get new leads daily with paid ads (without posting more)
2. Sales - sign new clients without me directly talking to them
3. Client success - get our clients results without me taking calls
These 3 systems allowed me to make money without working more hours
If I didn't want to work... I have that choice now!
But I love working and helping our clients get incredible results... it's very fulfilling so I still work 40hrs a week š
(short plug... if you want help building systems for your coaching business so you can work as much... or as little as you want - book a call here - mattshiver.com/?el=yt)
The second thing that I did to travel for free was this...
Leverage credit card points to travel for free
12 months ago I discovered the BEST credit card for paid ads
It's the American Express Business Gold Card...
It gives you 4x points for every $1 spent on paid ads
And you probably know by now that paid ads are the fastest way to grow an online coaching business...
So if you run ads, use this card
It's a NO-BRAINER!
Within 6 months of having this card and hitting the sign-on bonus...
I got business-class tickets to and from Italy without spending any of my own money
Every month I continue to get more and more points automatically because I am spending money on ads to grow my business
One of the biggest perks of having a business that does 7+ figures a year is allowing it to pay for big trips like this
I now have enough points to book 5+ more trips like this in the future
And everytime I go... I'm going to get more luxury stays because it doesn't cost me anything out of pocket!
So you might be asking yourself... okay that's cool Matt but why did you write this post? Are you trying to get me to sign up for a credit card?
No... I don't care if you use the credit card or not... that's not the point š
I'm writing this post because I am so grateful for the freedoms that I experience from my online coaching business
I can travel the world, work from anywhere, and work as much or as little as I want because I have a business that works for ME
And I'm so passionate about this that I spend my time helping other coaches start and scale online health & fitness coaching programs that give them freedom too
