The 90-Day Path to $5K Months

Send us a text

Wondering exactly when your coaching business will finally hit that consistent $5,000 monthly income? You're not alone. This burning question reflects what almost every coach secretly worries about – when will all this hard work actually pay off?

The surprising truth we reveal in this episode is that your timeline isn't determined by the calendar at all. While many coaches hope for a magic number—six months, one year—the real factors that determine your income timeline are much more personal: the clarity of your message, the strength of your belief in what you offer, and how consistently you show up where your ideal clients can find you.

What makes coaching particularly challenging is that you're simultaneously building two things: a business AND your identity as a leader. This dual development creates a unique journey that can't be rushed or forced into someone else's timeline. The coaches who reach $5K months fastest aren't necessarily the ones working hardest—they're the ones solving the right problems in the right sequence with the right support.

Could you reach consistent $5,000 months in 90 days? Absolutely—but only when you're focused on the strategic priorities that actually move the needle. If you're ready to stop guessing and start implementing a personalized path to consistent income, check out our Coach Accelerator program.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Are you wondering how long it's going to take to
finally hit consistent $5,000months?
You're not alone, and the rightanswer might actually surprise
you.
If you've been working hardstill but you're not seeing that
$5,000 per month mark, thisvideo is for you.
So welcome to Modern Leadership, where we answer questions from
our community and our coachingprograms to help you grow the
confidence and skills you needto make more impact and income

(00:21):
than you ever have.
Today's question comes from oneof our Coach Accelerator
members, michael, who askssomething that we hear all the
time.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Hey Teresa and Mark.
This is Michael Jones fromBirmingham, alabama.
You can find me online atLinkedIn and search for
Encouraging Leader.
I've been in your CoachAccelerator program for about 90
days and I am thrilled becauseI've learned more from y'all
than I have in 90 days from mostother programs combined.
I serve folks that are careerprofessionals who have been in

(00:48):
their careers for 10, 20 plusyears and they just don't feel
connected to what they doanymore.
They feel frustrated and theydon't know what to do next.
Well, I help those folks figureout what to do next.
My question for the two of youis something that may be a
little bit controversial and youmay have to copy off the heck
out of it, but I'd like to know,realistically, how long you

(01:10):
would tell a new coach theywould need to take to build up
their practice before they'd seea consistent stream of revenue
from coaching.
And by consistent you can.
You can assign whatever dollarsign you want to.
Typically, people stick it atthe $5,000 per month mark.
But whatever you're, you'rewhatever you want to assign to,
that please do.
But I'd just love to hear yousay how long would it take a
coach a new coach to build up asteady stream of revenue.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
Okay, so here's where we dive into the deeper why.
This question isn't reallyabout money.
It's about certainty.
Most coaches want to know whenthe effort starts paying off, so
they can stop second guessingthemselves.
But here's the truth.
Your timeline isn't based onthe calendar.
It's based on the clarity ofyour message, really the problem
you help people solve, yourbelief in your offer and the way

(01:53):
you show up consistently.
The real challenge, though mostnew coaches are building a
business and their identity as aleader at the same time.
So let's go into the what.
If we had to give you a number,we'd say 90 days is possible,
but only if you're focused onthe right things.
It's not about hustling harder.
It's about solving the rightproblems in the right order.

(02:14):
This is why coaching is sopowerful, because your path to
$5,000 won't look like someoneelse's.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
So if you're someone who is serious about making
$5,000 a month or more butunsure where to focus, that's
why we created our programcalled the Coach Accelerator,
and we'd love to share it withyou.

The truth is is there's no onesize fit all to anything, even

(02:42):
your steps to 5,000.
But when you lean into yourstrengths and you have the
strategies, the confidence andthe skills to get there, you
will find a way to move forwardand hit your goals, not only
because you want to hit it, butbecause of the impact that's
going to make in the world.
