You might think most people find my website by googling ‘elocution teacher near me’ or ‘voice coach near me’, and while some of my clients do find me this way, quite a lot don’t.
So far I have taught people in Liverpool, Bolton, Chester, Southport, Warrington, Wigan, Wrexham, Manchester, Stockport, St Helens, Welshpool, Birmingham, Worcester, Hereford, Burton upon Trent, London, Shrewsbury, Sydney Australia, Lyon France, Boston USA, Barcelona Spain, Paris France, Uppsala Sweden, Krakow Poland, and Ghent Belgium… I could go on and on and on…
The point is most clients aren’t looking for someone close by, they are searching for someone with excellent reviews who will be that great teacher they’ve been seeking. They don’t care if I’m based in Churchstoke or New York.
I often get enquiries from people who only want to attend in person, but the truth is, after Covid forced me online I realised my clients were receiving far more rewarding sessions.
When people did attend in person pre-2020, they would sometimes get distracted by their phones or their surroundings. Travelling to the session also meant clients arrived flustered or tense which pulled their focus away from learning.
During face-to-face online sessions you are only focusing on what we do together in that moment. And while it can be quite intense it is highly efficient and involves no stressful commute.
Once I moved sessions online I quickly realised that clients learnt more, absorbed more of the lesson, and consequently progressed far more quickly.
This has also opened up my client base in a way that I could never have imagined. I’ve travelled the world from the comfort of my cosy office here in Wales and have helped people all over the globe reach their vocal destination.
