Healers, Coaches Do You Need A Business Tribe?

So What Is A Business Tribe? And how can a Business Tribe help a healing or coaching business?

A Business Tribe is a community or group of people who support your business.

Originally the word tribe was seen as a community of a distinct group of people who relied on their own resources to be self-sufficient. They lived and worked as a family in co-operation, in the exchange of skills and resources to survive and thrive.

Building a Tribe has been a recent concept used to describe a community of people who support each other in interests, causes, spiritual, and business goals. Tribes are fashionable at the moment for building effective Facebook groups, communities, or even memberships that contain groups of people with the same goals, directions, values, and or ethics.

I encourage holistic business owners to focus on their soul audience, which is usually made up of your soul clients.

Challenges And Benefits Of Building A Business Trib

Building a Business Tribe can be a highly effective way for all members to grow their business.  A business tribe group is just like a business support group. They work if everyone comes to the group with the right intentions. When the group contains members with a mixture of skills and expertise. In a group like this, you tend to get a wealth of expertise, resources, and knowledge.

But building the right business tribe can take a lot of time and energy. Especially for the tribe leader /leaders or tribe founder/founders. But in the long term, if each member comes from the same intentions, and is wholly invested in contribution, everyone can reap great rewards.

But the common problem like many things in life, there can often be members who take more than contribute. So it is important to set some business tribe rules. Every member of this tribe should be clear on what is excepted of them. It is also important that members do what they can without depleting their own resources. It is very much about balance, yin, and yang, give and take.

Tips On How To Build Your Business Tribe

1. Decide On The Core Purpose For Your Business Tribe
2. Decide On Any Core Ethics Or Values Of Your Business Tribe
3. Only Allow In Tribe Members Who Have A Similar Core Purpose
4. Only Allow In Tribe Members Willing To Contribute As Much As They Receive
5. Make It Clear What Is Required Of Each Business Tribe Member

Having a strong business tribe of members who have a similar goal can be a very powerful way to grow and make a change, especially if that tribe in many ways has similar values. And even better if they all have different areas of expertise and offerings but similar client audiences. Because you can do collaborations, cross-sharing of your resources, and offerings between each other’s audiences.

Soul Tribe’s And Soul Clients

When I am helping healers and therapists with their business and marketing I encourage community, networking, and collaboration which is part of the Spiritual Marketing Club Membership Gold and Platinum Program.

If you plan to build your business by running online Facebook groups I suggest focusing on your soul tribe, which is usually made up of your soul audience , soul clients. You will often get a far higher conversion in a group that is more your soul tribe than just your ideal audience. If you want to learn why Soul Clients are an easier way to grow your business.
