🎙️ Too Much Self-Promotion? Here’s Why Your Coaching Content Isn’t Working
Don’t fall into the coach trap.
You're posting every day. Reels. Stories. Wins. But no clients. Why? Because no one cares how great you are — they care how you can help them.
In this episode of The Coach Trap Podcast, Greg Styan and Dan “Yoda” Williams rip apart the myth that constant self-promotion is the key to growing your coaching business. Spoiler: it’s not.
We talk about:
Why storytelling is more powerful than bragging
The actual role of podcasts in trust building
Why audience-centric content = client acquisition
How to stop scrolling past your own posts
And the ONE question every coach should ask: “Am I actually helping, or just shouting into the void?”

Self-promotion ≠ value.
Focus on them, not you.
Niche down and talk directly to your ideal client.
Storytelling builds trust. Stats build proof. Use both.
Podcasts = DMs at scale.
Mix it up. Posts, clips, conversations — don’t be a one-trick pony.
