What is Coach Kyle Dating all about?
This is a company that helps young men gain the confidence to accomplish the dating life they know they deserve but are too afraid to get. I was a shy average guy myself and I have walked the same path, so my students can be sure to learn from someone who has been where they are. Everything I teach in my mentorship program, are strategies I learned while overcoming the same challenges my students are currently facing. I had to hire coaches myself, and went through a huge transformation that led me here.
Tell us a little bit about your background and how you started your company?
I started my company because I struggled with self-confidence and dating. I lost my father when I was twelve years old and to numb the pain, I played a lot of video games, but had no social life. I went through high school and never dated anyone. I was an introverted kid who always let other people steal the spotlight. It wasn’t until I was 20 years old when I started dating my ex that I came across personal development and changed my entire life. I dated the same girl until I was 25 and towards the end of the relationship when she left me for another guy, I hired my first coach, worked on myself, and started sharing with my friends all of the insights I gained. Teaching them encouraged me to start my YouTube channel where I started sharing more of my knowledge and transformation with my subscribers. Through that channel, many men started reaching out to me and told me I was changing their lives. This gave me the idea to develop something unique to have a deeper impact on my clients, so Coach Kyle Dating was born.
What would you say are the top 3 skills needed to be a successful entrepreneur, and why?
Consistency, patience, and the ability to be coachable. Without consistency, you will not see results no matter how knowledgeable you are. Without patience, you will not keep your consistency. As entrepreneurs, we all go through highs and lows and patience helps us stay focused on what matters most; and lastly, the ability to be coachable is so important. Having enough humility to understand there are people with different skill sets that can help you grow and be willing to listen to those people to learn from them is so significant in business. This simple practice can elevate your success to levels that would take you much longer if you want to get there by yourself.
What are your plans for the future, how do you plan to grow this company?
I love this question because the only way for us to evolve and hit the next level of success is to help others evolve with us. I am continuously releasing valuable content to viewers on my YouTube channel, and amidst that, expanding my business and growing my brand into a premium styled personalized coaching program/mentorship. So far, my channel and brand keeps growing every day and I receive positive feedback not only from personal clientele but also appreciative viewers from YouTube which is a good indicator that I am on the right path.
How do you separate yourself from your competitors?
From the feedback, I have received from my past students, I consider myself to be more straightforward and genuine than most coaches in my industry. I have struggled with the same challenges my students struggle with, so I can see exactly how to fix them. My main priority is the success and transformation of those who decide to work with me. We create specific game plans tailored for each student and that is the key to a successful mentorship program.
Tell us a little bit about your marketing process, what has been the most successful form of marketing for you?
Knowing exactly who you serve, provide real value for your audience, and be sure to be in front of the right people. You can be the most knowledgeable person in your industry, but if you don’t get in front of the right people, your knowledge will not be of value. I have found YouTube to be super helpful for my brand, with over 200,000 subscribers, I have been able to impact lives every day while growing my business.
If you only had $1000 dollars to start a new business, knowing everything you know now, how would you spend it?
I would hire a mentor immediately. People don’t often realize the power of mentorship, but sometimes, even only one valuable insight from your mentor can change the game for you. Being supported in your journey is extremely important.
What is your favorite quote?
“You can’t think your way into a new way of acting, but you can act your way into a new way of thinking.”
I don’t quite remember where I learned this quote from, but I live by it.
What’s your best piece of advice for aspiring and new entrepreneurs?
Accept that strategy can get you started, but mindset will get you far. Grow your mindset every day. Business is driven by data, and that is not the hard part of the business. The hard part is overcoming self-limiting beliefs, and changing your entire reality.
Who should we interview next and why?
I think interviewing my friend Chris Fischer would provide the readers with a lot of valuable insights. Chris is a marketing ninja who has helped me understand a lot about the monetization of my online coaching brand.
How can we get in touch with you?
You can connect with me through Instagram, shoot me a message and I am always happy to connect with people willing to level up.
