The best coaches aren't sitting on Instagram waiting for you to DM them. They're at conferences, they're at events, they're at masterminds, they're at industry gatherings. When I was running Webinar Ninja, the conferences I attended were like SAS Talk and microconf. And they were full of real founders building what I was building. And the best way to find a coach is to ask other entrepreneurs. Who coached you, who helped you grow? Who changed the game for you? Who made you see things differently? That's exactly what happened to me. I went to a conference called SaaS Soc. I met up with an old friend named Rob Rossin, who's the founder of Time Dr. Big SaaS Co. At the time. He was a few steps ahead of me, and he knew I was looking for a coach, and he recommended Dan Martel. He was part of his program. So I thought, oh, if it was good enough for Rob, maybe I should have a call with Dan and see if it's a good fit for me.
