Do I really need disclaimers if I’m just starting out?
“Lisa, I’m just starting my coaching biz. Do I really need disclaimers?”
I get this question all.the.time. And I have to say, “Yes! You do!”
Here’s why:
Your social media tells the world who you are. Your website is the heart and soul of your brand. Together, they’re your storefront.
If you’re a coach, holistic practitioner or online entrepreneur, it’s important to disclaim your liability… especially on your website and on social media.
You don’t want people to think you are diagnosing, healing or treating them through something written on your website or social media.
You don’t want them to think you’re giving medical or psychological advice on your website or in a social media post.
You want to make it clear to every website or social media visitor to use care and judgment when applying the info you share to their life or business.
For example, if a visitor reads your blog post on the benefits of Vitamin D during the winter months, you don’t want them to just start taking it without talking with their doctor first.
“But, how do I say that, Lisa?”
You use a legal disclaimer on your website and social media.
Legal disclaimers empower you to draw lines around your liability. Even more importantly, they empower your readers to take responsibility for their own health.
Because I’m full of Legal Love™, I would never want you to write these disclaimers on your own and leave holes the size of Swiss cheese!

And BTW, the lawyer down the street or your family attorney may be an excellent attorney, but I’ve found that many lawyers aren’t familiar with coaches, holistic practitioners and heart-centered entrepreneurs – or opt-ins, online courses or Ontraport. I’m a health & life coach too – as well as a lawyer – so I get what you need to have robust legal language written in plain English. Join the Legal Love™ Mini Course here and get your disclaimers ready to go.
You may opt out at any time.
