This week on The Coaching Edge, I share the essential foundational elements that every coach should have in place when starting or growing their coaching business.

I am giving you a comprehensive checklist covering everything from choosing a business name to managing clients and building a social media presence. I wish I had a launch fundamentals checklist when I started coaching over a decade ago. Whether you're a new coach or experienced, double-check that you have these systems in place in your business. 

You’ll learn:

✅ The one mistake that keeps coaches stuck before they even start (hint: it’s your business name)
✅ Why a one-page website is all you need in the beginning
✅ The must-have systems for payments, scheduling, and contracts to keep your business running smoothly
✅ How to start booking clients even if you have zero social media following
✅ The easiest way to collect glowing testimonials without awkward asks
