Tips for editing your coach profile

• Editing language
  At the top right of the screen, you can select whether you would like to fill in your profile in German or English. In the following, fields that are not automatically translated into the other language are marked with a small globe.
• View counter
  The view view counter at the top right of the screen shows you how many views your profile has had since it was first activated. Periodic analyses are currently not available.

Under General and Contact you can find your user data. If you have more than one profile (e.g. various locations, an additional trainer profile), the changes you make here will affect all profiles that are maintained in CoachAdmin.

• General
  Please check the information we have filled in. The fields shaded in red can only be edited by us - a message via our contact form is sufficient. Please also check your billing address - here you can make changes yourself - if you are a member of a coaching association, please let us know so that we can add this to your profile.
• Contact (publicly visible contact details)
  Enter your contact details here and regularly check that they are up to date. In particular, make sure that your social media links are working properly. Via "external apps" you have the option of integrating the meeting tool of our partner "MeetFox" into your profile. You can find more information about the scope of our cooperation with MeetFox here.

• Overview
  • Description: These are the first words that a potential client reads about you in the search results list (exception: you have an entry in the Professional or Premium plan and the Short description field is filled). The first sentence should directly describe how you can support whom with which issues, so that the prospective client receives the impulse to read on. Then: What makes you special / characterises you as a coach? In which areas are you particularly good as a coach? What goals do you pursue etc...
  • Short description (max. 140 characters): If you fill in this field (only possible in the Professional & Premium tariff), these are the first words that a potential client reads from you in the search results list. So, briefly and concisely arouse the interest of your potential clients. Please note: Exceeding 140 characters leads to memory problems in CoachAdmin.
  • Job experience: Fill in your professional background here. How long did you work in which business sector and in which position? Do you have corporate experience? Have you worked abroad? It is a good idea to use bullet points here.
• Coaching-Offer
  • Target audience: Clients are looking for coaches who are a good fit for them and their concerns, so specify here exactly which people you (would like to) coach in which situations.
  • Costs: You can enter further information on your price structure in the "Special conditions" and "Hourly fee (additional info)" fields. However, the non-public fields Hourly rate minimum and Hourly rate maximum are decisive for the price search. We therefore strongly recommend that you edit these rates.
  • Offer:The information in this field is essential for the client looking for you. Therefore, please describe briefly and concisely what your specialities are as a coach and which issues you work on particularly well.
    • Philosophy: Describe your values, goals and mindset. What drives you? What do you stand for? Why did you become a coach?
    • Process: Describe the coaching process as it normally takes place in your practice and what special options you offer.
    • Methods: Describe here which methods (not a list of coaching tools) or aids/analysis tools you use as a coach.
• Competences and experiences
  • Companies: Here you can provide information on the positions and company sizes that are of interest to you as a coach, as well as your coaching forms (areas of application). Please also note here: Less can be more!
  • Education / Experiences: In the education and experience fields, you should provide information about your own (coaching-relevant) education in order to emphasise your expertise. It also pays to be detailed here in order to present yourself as an expert.
    • Professional education (coaching-relevant): Please enter the key points of your professional career here.
    • Further education: e.g. further trainings in the field of coaching or in areas that are important to you as a coach
    • Studies: This field refers to studies/research projects (not to your degree programme) that you have conducted yourself or in which you have participated.
    • Leadership experience: How long were you a manager in which position and in which company size? How many employees did you supervise?
    • Supervision is seen as an element of quality assurance. If you regularly carry out supervision, describe this in this section. If you would like to offer yourself as a mentor, you can also mention this here.
    • Testimonials: Enter companies and topics here or describe which projects you have successfully managed.
• Dokuments & Media
  Publish informative information sheets (PDF format) and photos as well as links to your YouTube videos here.
  For YouTube videos, please enter the browser address of your video. If you enter the YouTube short link, the video preview image will not be displayed in your profile. 
  Please note that photos and videos can only be published on the Professional or Premium plan.

• Publications
  Here you can enter and link interviews, articles and books that you have published as an institute or coach directly in your profile.
