In today's episode, I'm cutting through the noise and b...

Ever been told to start with a $97 course and work your way up to a high-ticket coaching program? I'm calling BS on that advice! Because the truth is starting with low-ticket offers is the long way, the hard way, and often the broke way.

Let’s break down the math: with a $47 ebook, you need 200+ sales to hit $10K a month. With a $5,000 program? Just 8 clients. That's it. I know what you're thinking – "Who's gonna pay that much for m...

Ever felt totally confused when people talk about marketing funnels for coaches as if they're speaking another language? Trust me, I've been there! As a therapist transitioning to coaching, I had no clue what a marketing funnel was either. But funnels aren't complicated tech monsters. They're simply guided paths that take people from first meeting you to becoming paying clients.
